Getting Started

Before Installation

General Precautions

• DO NOT insert any metal object into the unit.

• DO NOT disassemble the unit or remove screws, covers, or

cabinet.

• DO NOT expose the unit to rain or moisture.

Locations

• Install the unit in a location that is level and protected from moisture.

• The temperature around the unit must be between 5˚C and 35˚C.

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor

ventilation could cause overheating and damage the unit.

Handling the unit

• DO NOT touch the power cord with wet hands.

• DO NOT pull on the power cord to unplug it. When unplugging

the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. It is recommended to use a coaxial cable for antenna connection, since it is well-shielded against interference.

• When a power failure occurs, or when you unplug the power cord, the preset settings such as preset FM or AM channels and sound adjustments may be erased in a few days.

Putting Batteries in the Remote Control

Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.

• When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the unit.

On the back of the remote control, remove the battery cover.

Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

Checking the Supplied Accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories. The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces supplied.

• Remote Control (1)

• Batteries (2)

• AM Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

Replace the cover.

If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.

CAUTION:

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:

• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may

differ in voltage.

• Always replace both batteries at the same time.

• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

■ SCART connection

DO NOT connect a TV through a VCR or a TV with a built-in VCR; otherwise, the picture may be distorted.

Illustrations of the input/output terminals below are typical examples. When you connect other components, refer also to their manuals since the terminal names actually printed on the rear vary among the components.

Setting the RGB/YC selector

Set the RGB/YC selector as follows while the unit is turned off:

• When the TV is compatible with RGB signal, set to “RGB.”

• When the TV is compatible with S-video signal, set to “YC.”

• When the TV is compatible with composite video signal only, set to “RGB.”

For TV and video format

When the TV is equipped with the plural SCART terminals, refer to the manual supplied with the TV to check the available video signals for each terminal, then connect SCART cable correctly.

This unit cannot convert the video signals (S-video or Composite). When the video signal of one video component is different from that of the other (for example, one is S-video, the other is Composite), you may not see the pictures appropriately. In this case, unify the video signals of all the video components into S-video or Composite, or you need to switch the video signal of TV each time you change the source.

For T-V LINK

• You can use T-V LINK function if you connect the T-V LINK compatible TV and VCR to this unit with a fully wired SCART cables. For details on T-V LINK, refer also to the manuals supplied with the TV and the VCR.

• Connect SCART cable to EXT-2 terminal on your JVC's T-V LINK compatible TV for T-V LINK function.

• Some TV, VCR, and STB support this type of data communication. For complete details, refer also to the manuals supplied with these equipments.

Now, you can plug the power cord of the unit into the AC outlet.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.

• Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging

the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

Notes:

• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the antenna cables. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference.

Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to Receive FM Stations

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

When tuned in to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

PS (Program Service) : Shows commonly known station

names.

PTY (Program Type) : Shows types of broadcast programs.
