CD CHANGER OPERATIONS
ENGLISH
We recommend that you use the JVC MP3compatible CD changer with your unit.
By using this CD changer, you can play back
your original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs
(Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format
or in MP3 format.
• You can also connect other CH-X series
CD changers (except CH-X99 and CH-X100).
However, they are not compatible with MP3
discs, so you cannot play back MP3 discs.
• You cannot use the KD-MK series CD
changers with this unit.
Before operating your CD changer:
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for
your CD changer.
• If no discs are in the magazine of the CD
changer or the discs are inserted upside
down, “NO DISC” will appear on the display.
If this happens, remove the magazine and
set the discs correctly.
• If no magazine is loaded in the CD changer,
“NO MAG” appears on the display. If this
happens, insert the magazine in the CD
changer.
• If “RESET 1” – “RESET 8” appears on the
display, something is wrong with the
connection between this unit and the CD
changer. If this happens, check the
connection and make sure the cords are
connected firmly. Then, press the reset
button of the CD changer.
Playing discs
Select the CD changer (CD-CH).
* If you have changed “EXT IN” setting to “LINE IN”
(see page 23), you cannot select the CD changer.
• When the current disc is an MP3 disc:
Playback starts from the first folder of the
current disc once file check is completed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• This unit can play back only the files of the
same type which is first detected if a disc
ENGLISH
includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3
files.
• This unit can play back multi-session discs;
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped
while playing.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on
this unit because of their disc characteristics,
and for the following causes:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation on the lens inside the
unit.
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written
with “Packet Write” method.
– There are improper recording conditions
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than
that of regular CDs.
• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
– Discs on which labels can be directly printed
by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures or
high humidity may cause malfunctions or
damage to discs.
Playing an MP3 disc
• This unit can play back MP3 files with the
extension code <.mp3> (regardless of the
letter case—upper/lower).
• This unit can show the names of albums,
artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0,
1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files.
• This unit can handle only one-byte characters.
No other characters can be correctly displayed.
• This unit can play back MP3 files meeting the
conditions below:
– Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps
– Sampling frequency:
• The maximum number of characters for file/
folder names vary among the disc format used
(includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3>).
– ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters
– ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters
– Romeo*: up to 128 (72) characters
– Joliet*: up to 64 (36) characters
– Windows long file name*: up to 128 (72)
characters
* The parenthetic figure is the maximum number of
characters for file/folder names in case the total
number of files and folders is 313 or more.
• This unit can recognize the total of 512 files, of
200 folder, and of 8 hierarchies.
• This unit can play back the files recorded in
VBR (variable bit rate).
The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy
in elapsed time display, and do not show the
actual elapsed time. Especially, after
performing the search function, this difference
becomes noticeable.
• This unit cannot play back the following files:
– MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO
formats.
– MP3 files encoded in an unappropriated
format.
– MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2.
– Files which have the data such as WMA,
WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.
• The search function works but search speed is
not constant.

MAINTENANCE
How to clean the connectors
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the
connectors.
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the
connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened
ENGLISH
with alcohol, being careful not to damage the
connectors.
Connector
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
CD player in the following cases:
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave
the unit turned on for a few hours until the
moisture evaporates.
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not be played
correctly. If a disc does become
dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a
straight line from center to edge.
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough
spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this
unit may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub
the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.
CAUTIONS:
Do not insert the following discs into the loading
slot:
– 8 cm discs (single CD)
– Unusual shape—heart, flower, etc.
How to handle discs
When removing a disc
from its case, press down
the center holder of the case
and lift the disc out, holding
it by the edges.
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not
touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.
Do not use the following discs:

Parts list for installation and connection
The following parts are provided for this unit.
After checking them, please set them correctly.
The following illustration shows a typical installation. If you have any questions or require
information regarding installation kits, consult your JVC car audio dealer or a company supplying
kits.
• If you are not sure how to install this unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and
make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.
Notes:
• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your
JVC car audio dealer.
• It is recommended to connect to the speakers with maximum power of more than 50 W (both at
the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω). If the maximum power is less than
50 W, change “AMP GAIN” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 23 of
the INSTRUCTIONS).
• To prevent short-circuit, cover the terminals of the UNUSED
leads with insulating tape.
• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be
careful not to touch it when removing this unit.
A
Typical Connections / °“√‡™◊ËÕ¡µËÕ·∫∫ª°µ‘
Before connecting: Check the wiring in the vehicle carefully. Incorrect connection may cause
serious damage to this unit.
