Maintenance

How to clean the touch panel

When removing stains or dust on the surface, turn off the power, then wipe with dry soft cloth.

ENGLISH

• Be careful not to scratch the surface when wiping it.

• Do not use the following materials to clean the touch panel:

– Wet cloth – Volatile substance such as benzine and

thinner

– Acid detergent, alkaline detergent, and

detergent composed of organic substance

• When using chemically processed duster, read its precautions carefully.

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 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 receiver turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

How to handle discs/SD cards

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.

SD cards are precision products. DO NOT impact, bend, drop, or wet them.

Center holder

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this receiver may reject the disc. To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Do not use the following discs:

– All previously stored stations are erased and

stations are stored newly.

–

Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in

No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, a previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Disc/SD card operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of NonDVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This receiver has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/ CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA format and MP3/WMA files recorded in an SD card.

• When a disc or an SD card has been loaded, selecting “CD” or “SD” for the playback source starts playback.

• When a track or folder whose number is greater than 99 is selected, the icon before the number ( assigned 3-digits number).

• While playing an SD card, the playback order may differ from other SD players.

• This receiver may be unable to play back some SD cards due to their characteristics or recording conditions.

ENGLISH

• This receiver cannot play back mini SD card and MMC.

• If the inserted SD card does not have the correct files, “SD” is skipped.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This receiver can play back only the files of the same type which is first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This receiver 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 receiver because of their disc characteristics, and for the following causes:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation occurs on the lens

inside the receiver. – The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty. – CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are

written with “Packet Write” method. – 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 the 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 humidities may cause malfunctions or damages to discs.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the receiver.

• Be sure to ground this receiver 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 52 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 52 W, change “Amp Gain” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 29 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 receiver.

CONEXIONES ELECTRICAS

Para evitar cortocircuitos, recomendamos que desconecte el terminal negativo de la batería y que efectúe todas las conexiones eléctricas antes de instalar la unidad.

• Asegúrese de volver a conectar a masa esta unidad al chasis del automóvil después de la instalación.

Notas:

• Reemplace el fusible por uno con la corriente especificada. Si el fusible se quemase frecuentemente consulte con su concesionario de JVC de equipos de audio para automóviles.

• Se recomienda conectar los altavoces con una potencia máxima de más de 52 W (tanto atrás como adelante, con una impedancia de 4 Ω a 8 Ω). Si la potencia máxima es de menos de 52 W, cambie “Ganancia” para evitar daños en los altavoces (consulte la página 29 del MANUAL DE INSTRUCCIONES).

• Para evitar cortocircuitos, cubra los cables NO UTILIZADOS con cinta aislante.

• El sumidero térmico estará muy caliente después del uso. Asegúrese de no tocarlo al desmontar esta unidad.

RACCORDEMENTS ELECTRIQUES

Pour éviter tout court-circuit, nous vous recommandons de débrancher la borne négative de la batterie et d’effectuer tous les raccordements électriques avant d’installer l’appareil.

• Assurez-vous de raccorder de nouveau la mise à la

masse de cet appareil au châssis de la voiture après l’installation.

Remarques:

• Remplacer le fusible par un de la valeur précisée. Si le fusible saute souvent, consulter votre revendeur d’autoradios JVC.

• Il est recommandé de connecter des enceintes avec une puissance de plus de 52 W (les enceintes arrière et les enceintes avant, avec une impédance comprise entre 4 Ω et 8 Ω). Si la puissance maximum est inférieure à 52 W, changez “Gain Amp” pour éviter d’endommager vos enceintes (voir page 29 du MANUAL D’INSTRUCTIONS).

• Pour éviter les court-circuits, couvrir les bornes des fils qui ne sont PAS UTILISÉS avec de la bande isolante.

• Le dissipateur de chaleur devient très chaud après usage. Faire attention de ne pas le toucher en retirant cet appareil.

PRECAUTIONS on power supply and speaker connections:

• DO NOT connect the speaker leads of the power cord to the car battery; otherwise, the receiver will be seriously damaged.

• BEFORE connecting the speaker leads of the power cord to the speakers, check the speaker wiring in your car.

Connecting the external amplifiers / Conexión a los ampliﬁ cadores externos / Connexion d’ampliﬁ cateurs extérieurs

You can connect amplifiers to upgrade your car stereo system.

• Connect the remote lead (blue with white stripe) to the remote lead of the other equipment so that it can be controlled through this receiver.

• For amplifier only:

– Disconnect the speakers from this receiver, connect

them to the amplifier. Leave the speaker leads of this receiver unused.

– You can switch off the built-in amplifier and send the audio

signals only to the external amplifier(s) to get clear sounds and to prevent internal heat built-up inside the receiver. See page 29 of the INSTRUCTIONS (separate volume).

– The line output level of this receiver is kept high to

maintain the hi-fi sounds reproduced from this receiver.

When connecting an external amplifier to this receiver,

turn down the gain control on the external amplifier to obtain the best performance from this receiver.
