CD CHANGER OPERATIONS
We recommend that you use one of the CH-X series with your unit.
If you have another CD automatic changer, consult your JVC car audio dealer for connections.
• For example, if your CD automatic changer is one of the KD-MK series, you need a cord (KSU15K) for connecting it to this unit.
Before operating your CD automatic changer:
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with 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 “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, connect
the connecting cord(s) firmly if necessary , then press the reset button of the CD changer.

MAINTENANCE
Handling CDs
This unit has been designed only to play back CDs bearing the mark.
Other discs cannot be played back.
How to handle CDs
When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of
the case and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD around the
center holder (with the printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.
To keep CDs clean
A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with
a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
To play new CDs
New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges.
If such a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point
pen, etc.

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 CD and leave the
unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be
ejected.)
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape — like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will malfunction.
• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat sour ce or place them in a place subject to high
temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.)
to clean CDs.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the
unit and the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
