Storing stations in memory

You can use one of the following two methods to store broadcasting stations in memory.

• Automatic preset of FM stations: SSM (Strongstation Sequential Memory)

• Manual preset of both FM and AM stations

FM station automatic preset: SSM

Y ou can preset 6 local FM stations in each FM band (FM1, FM2 and FM3).

Select the FM band (FM1 – 3) you want to store FM stations into.

Local FM stations with the strongest signals are searched and stored automatically in the band number you have selected (FM1, FM2 or FM3). These stations are preset in the number buttons — No.1 (lowest frequency) to No .6 (highest frequency). When automatic preset is over, the station stored in number button 1 will be automatically tuned in.

Page 9

Manual preset

Y ou can preset up to 6 stations in each band (FM1, FM2, FM3 and AM) manually.

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.

MAINTENANCE

This unit requires very little attention, but you will be able to extend the life of the unit if you follow the instructions below.

To clean the head

• Clean the heads after every 10 hours of use using a wet-type head cleaning tape (available at an audio store). When the head becomes dirty, you may realize the following symptoms: – Sound quality is reduced. – Sound level decreases. – Sound drops out.

• Do not play dirty or dusty tapes.

• Do not touch the highly-polished head with any metallic or magnetic tools.

CAUTION:

• Do not play the cassettes with peeling labels; otherwise, they can damage the unit.

• Tighten tapes to remove slack since loose tape may become entangled with the mechanism.

• Do not leave a cassette in the cassette compartment after use, as the tape may become slack.

The function below is also provided to ensure the longer life of this unit.

Ignition key-off release/Ignition key-on play

• Turning off the ignition key with a cassette in the compartment automatically releases the tape from the unit’s tapehead.

• Turning on the ignition key with a cassette in the compartment starts playback automatically if you turned off the ignition during tape play.

ENGLISH

To keep the tape clean

• Always store the cassettes in their storage cases after use.

• Do not store cassettes in the following places: – Subject to direct sunlight – With high humidity – At extremely hot temperatures

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit. If y ou are not sure how to install this unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.

Note: This unit is designed to operate only on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground electrical systems. If your vehicle does not have this

system, a voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at JVC car audio dealers.

• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

• If noise is a problem... This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. Ho wev er, with some vehicles, clicking or other unw anted noise may occur . If this happens, connect the unit’s rear ground terminal (see connection diagram) to the car’s chassis using shorter and thicker cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If noise still persists, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

• Maximum input of the speakers should be no more than 50 W at the rear and 50 W at the front, with an impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω.

• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis.

• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.

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. Si usted no está seguro de cómo instalar correctamente la unidad, hágala instalar por un técnico cualificado.

Nota: Esta unidad está diseñada para funcionar con 12 V de CC, con sistemas eléctricos de masa NEGA TIV A solamente. Si su vehículo

no posee este sistema, será necesario un inversor de tensión, que puede ser adquirido en los concesionarios de JVC de equipos de audio para automóviles.

• 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.

• Si el ruido fuese un problema... Esta unidad tiene un filtro de ruido en el circuito de alimentación. Sin embargo, en algunos vehículos, pueden producirse chasquidos u otros ruidos indeseados. En tal caso conecte el terminal de tierra posterior (véase diagrama de conexión) del receptor al chasis del automóvil, utilizando cordones más gruesos y cortos tales como alambre de cobre trenzado o de grueso calibre. Si el ruido persiste, consulte a su concesionario de JVC de equipos de audio para automóvil.

• La entrada máxima de los altavoces traseros no debe ser no más que 50 W en el trasero y 50 W en la frontal, con una impedancia de 4 Ω a 8 Ω.

• Asegúrese de conectar esta unidad a tierra en el chasis del

automóvil.

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