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 23˚F and 95˚F (–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 the cord. 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/AM (MW/LW) 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.

1. On the back of the remote control, remove the

battery cover.

2. Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

Getting Started

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 (MW/LW) Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

3. 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.

Getting Started

AM (MW/LW) antenna connection

Connect the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna supplied to the AM LOOP terminals. Turn the loop until you have the best reception.

• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to the AM EXT terminal. Keep the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna connected.

FM antenna connection

Connect the FM antenna supplied to the FM 75 Ω COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure. Extend the supplied FM antenna horizontally.

• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor antenna. Before attaching a 75 Ω coaxial cable (with a standard type connector), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

Notes:

• If the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl while twisting it as shown to the right.

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This could cause poor reception.

After connecting the front, center, rear speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible DSP effect. For details, see page 15.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

Connecting the front, center, and rear speakers

For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers respectively.

1 Cut, twist and remove the insulation at the end of

each speaker cord (not supplied).

2 Open the terminal, then insert the speaker cord. 3 Close the terminal.

Connecting the subwoofer speaker

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in the digital software.

Powered subwoofer (example)

Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cable with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

• Refer also to the manual supplied for your subwoofer.

Your Choice Temporarily

Another convenient RDS service is called “EON (Enhanced Other Network).” The EON indicator works and lights up while receiving an FM station with the EON code. This allows the unit to switch temporarily to a broadcast program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a different station except in the following cases:

• When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM — MW/LW and some FM stations).

• When the unit is in standby mode or TV Direct.

• When the unit selects the other source.

Before y ou start, remember...

• The EON function is only applicable to preset stations.

Set RDS/DVD MENU mode selector to “RDS.”

DVD

CASE 2 If there is a station broadcasting the program you have

selected

The unit tunes in the program. The indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, “EON END” appears in the display, and the unit goes back to the previously tuned station, but the EON function still remains activated.

CASE 3 If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the

program you ha ve selected

The unit continues to receive the station but the indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, “EON END” appears in the display, and the indicator of received PTY code stops flashing and remains lit, but the EON function still remains activated.

the widest sense.

How the EON function actually works:

CASE 1 If there is no station broadcasting the program you have

selected

The unit continues tuning in the current station.

When a station starts broadcasting the program you have selected, the unit automatically switches to the station. The indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, “EON END” appears in the display, and the unit goes back to the previously tuned station, but the EON function still remains activated.

INFO

TA/NEWS

NEWS/INFO TA/INFO

To stop listening to the program selected by EON

Press EON so that the program type (TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator goes off from the display. The unit enters EON off mode and goes back to the previously selected source.

• Each time you press EON, the EON mode alternates between standby mode and off mode.

When an emergency broadcast (ALARM ! signal) is sent from an FM station:

The unit automatically tunes in the station except in the following cases:

• When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM — MW/LW and some FM stations).

• When the unit is in standby mode or TV Direct.

• When the unit selects the other source.

While receiving an emergency broadcast, “ALARM !” appears on the display.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test — whether it can receive the ALARM ! signal correctly.

The TEST signal makes the unit work in the same way as the ALARM ! signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the unit automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST signal. While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the display.

Notes:

• EON data sent from some stations may not be compatible with this

unit.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the EON function, the

station does not change even if another network station starts broadcasting a program of the same EON data.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the EON function, you can

only use the EON and DISPLAY MODE buttons as the tuner operation buttons.

• If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned by

the EON function and the currently tuned station (“WAITING” flashes in the display), press EON to cancel the EON function. If you do not press the button, the currently tuned station is received finally, and the indication of the EON data type flashing on the display disappears.

Creating Realistic Sound Fields

You can use the following DSP (Digital Signal Processor) modes to reproduce a realistic sound field.

• Surround modes

• DAP modes

■ Surround modes

Surround modes cannot be used when only the front speakers are connected to this unit (without the rear speakers or center speaker).

Dolby Surround (Dolby Pro Logic)*

Used to reproduce sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby Surround (

Dolby Surround encoding format records the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, and rear channel signals (total 4 channels) into 2 channels. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built in this unit decodes these 2 channel signals into original 4 channel signals — matrix-based multichannel reproduction, and allows you to enjoy a realistic stereo sound in your listening room.

• When Dolby Pro Logic is activated, the PRO LOGIC indicator lights up on the display. – Dolby Pro Logic will be activated for all 2 channel-encoded

software.

DOLBY SURROUND

Dolby Digital*

Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby Digital (

• To enjoy the software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this unit. (See page 7.)

Dolby Digital encoding method (so-called discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format) records and digitally compresses the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, left rear channel, right rear channel, and LFE channel signals (total 6 channels, but LFE channel is counted as 0.1 channel. Therefore, called 5.1 channel). Since each channel is completely independent from the other channel signals to avoid interference, you can obtain much better sound quality with much stereo and surround effects. In addition, Dolby Digital enables stereo rear sounds, and sets the cutoff frequency of the rear treble at 20 kHz, compared to 7 kHz for Dolby Pro Logic. These facts enhance the sound movement and being-there feelings much more than Dolby Pro Logic.

DTS Digital Surround**

Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround (

• To enjoy the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this unit. (See page 7.)

DTS Digital Surround is another discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software. Compared to Dolby Digital, audio compression rate is relatively low. This fact allows DTS Digital Surround format to add breadth and depth to the reproduced sounds. As a result, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid and clear sound.

JVC Theatre Surround

Used to reproduce sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby Surround (

• Theatre Surround can be used when the front speakers and the rear speakers are connected to this unit (without regarding the center speaker).

Theatre Surround can add acoustic surround effects (DAP mode effects) to Dolby Surround software, and create a sound field of a theatre in your listening room.

• When Theatre Surround is selected, the PRO LOGIC and DSP indicators light up on the display.

■ DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) Modes

DAP modes have been designed to create important acoustic surround elements.

The sound heard in a hall, live club, dance club or pavilion consists of direct sound and indirect sound — early reflections and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls (see the diagram to the right). These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic surround effects.

The following DAP modes are provided with this unit.

These DAP modes can be used to add the acoustic surround effects while reproducing stereo analog software or Linear PCM digital software, and can give you a real “being there” feeling.

• DAP modes can be used when the front and rear speakers are connected to this unit (without respect to the center speaker connection: no sound comes out of the center speaker if it is connected).

• When one of the DAP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights up on the display.
