Introduction

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

Power sources

This manual is organized as follows:

This manual mainly explains playback and editing operations using the remote control, and the other operation such as recording operations using the buttons on the unit.

You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the main 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 in 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 “Basic and Common Operations” on pages 10 – 13.

The following marks are used in this manual:

Gives you warning and caution to prevent from damage or risk of fire/electric shock. Furthermore, gives you information which is not good for obtaining the best possible performance from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you had better know.

• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following cases:

After starting heating in the room

In a damp room

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

• The electronic swing panel may malfunction when you use this unit under the strong light such as the sunlight.

DO NOT expose this unit to the strong light.

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.

Precautions

Unpacking

After unpacking, check to be sure that you have all the following items.

The number in the parenthesis indicates the quantity of the pieces supplied.

FM antenna (1)

AM (MW/LW) loop antenna (1)

AC power cord (1)

Remote control (1)

Batteries (2)

Spacers (2)

If any is missing, consult your dealer immediately.

Connecting Antennas

FM antenna

FM antenna (supplied)

To connect an outdoor FM antenna

Before connecting it, disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

Outdoor FM antenna (not supplied)

A 75Ω antenna with coaxial type connector (DIN 45325) should be used.

1Attach the FM antenna to the FM (75 Ω) COAXIAL terminal.

2Extend the FM antenna.

3Fasten it up in the position which gives you the best reception.

About the supplied FM antenna

2Connect the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna to the AM LOOP terminals as illustrated.

3Turn the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna until you have the best reception.

To connect an outdoor AM (MW/LW) antenna

When reception is poor, connect a single vinyl-covered wire to the AM EXT terminal and extend it horizontally. The AM (MW/LW) loop antenna must remain connected.

For better reception of both FM and AM (MW/LW)

Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals and connecting cords.

Keep the antennas away from metallic parts of the unit, connecting cords, and the AC power cord.

Connecting Speakers

To attach spacers

If you want to put the speakers on the side of the main unit, you need to make a space between the main unit and the right speaker for ventilation.

In this case, attach spacers (supplied) to the right speaker as the illustration below:

The main unit

The right speaker

The openings for ventilation Spacers (supplied)

By peeling the cover seal from spacers, you can attach them to the right speaker.

To remove the speaker grilles

The speaker grilles are removable as the illustration below:

Holes

Projections
