Introduction
English
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to
obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual
for future reference.
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
• This manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons on the remote control.
You can use the buttons both on the remote control and
on the unit for the same operations if they have the
same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned
otherwise.
• Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated for
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are
explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9
and 10.
•The following symbols are used in this manual:
Gives you warning and caution to prevent
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall
outlet.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play on this unit because
of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if
the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is
because the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for
regular discs.
Notes for MP3 files

kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate.
• Some MP3 files or discs may not be played back because
of their characteristics or recording conditions.
• MP3 discs requires a longer readout time than normal discs
because of the complexity of the folder/file configuration.

Maintenance
English
To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs, tapes and mechanism clean.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your discs, tapes and the mechanism clean.
• Store discs and tapes in their cases, and keep them in
cabinets or on shelves.
Cleaning the unit
• Stains on the unit
Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is heavily
stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.
• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or have its paint peel off, be careful about the
following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a rough cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it too vigorously.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as an
insecticide to it.
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
with it for a long time.
Handling discs
• Remove the disc from its case by
holding it at the edge while pressing
the center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the
disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use
to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface
of the disc when placing it back in
its case.
•Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,
temperature extremes, and moisture.
Handling cassette tapes
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the
slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels
and rotating.
• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut,
or caught in the cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
•Avoid storing tapes in any of the following
places:
– In dusty places
– In direct sunlight or heat
– In moist areas
– On a TV or speaker
– Near a magnet
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
You need to clean the heads.
• Clean the heads after every 10 hours of use with
a wet-type head cleaning tape (available at electronic and
audio shops).
When the head becomes dirty, the following symptoms will
occur:
– 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.
