Features
Here are some of the things that make your System both powerful and simple to use.
❏ Types of CD you can play
Many types of compact discs are sold for a variety of uses. The Video CD Player can play the following compact discs.
• Video CD without Playback Control function: for audio and video (moving picture) reproduction.

How This Manual Is Organized
• Basic information that is the same for many different functions - e.g. setting the volume - is gi ven in the section
‘Basic Operations’, and not repeated under each function.
• The names of buttons/controls and display messages are written in all capital letters: e.g. FM/AM, “NO DISC”.
• System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play.
Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require.
We have enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.
WARNINGS

CAUTIONS:
• ONLY USE THE JVC POWER CORD PROVIDED WITH THIS SYSTEM TO AVOID MALFUNCTION OR DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM.
• BE SURE TO UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE OUTLET WHEN GOING OUT OR WHEN
THE SYSTEM IS NOT IN USE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

COMPU Play
JVC’s COMPU PLAY feature lets you control the most frequently used System functions with a single touch.
With One Touch Operation you can play a CD, turn on the radio, or listen to an external equipment with a single press of the
play button for that function. One Touch Operation turns the power on for you, then starts the function you have specified. At
the same time, the Top Cover moves backward to allow the Unit’s top button operation. If the System is not ready (no CD in
place), the System still powers on so you can insert a CD.
How One Touch Operation works in each case is explained in the section dealing with that function.
The COMPU PLAY buttons are:

Moisture Condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens
inside the System in the following
cases:
• After turning on heating in the
room.
• In a damp room.
• If the System is brought directly
from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the System may
malfunction. In this case, leave the
