• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number, the
previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If this
happens, preset the stations again.
Playing Back a Tape:
• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes. These
tapes easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans, and may
cause characteristic deterioration.
Playing Back a Disc:
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than
regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file
configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter
case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This
System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than 64
kbps.
– This System can recognize the total of 1000 tracks and of 99
groups (each group can contain up to 150 tracks). Those
exceeding the maximum number cannot be recognized.
– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from
the one you have intended while recording (see page 40). If
a folder does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are
ignored.
(see pages 3 to 6)
(see pages 7 to 9)
(see pages 10 to 14)
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the disc
tray.
•
On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD discs, the actual operations
may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to
the programming and disc structure; such differences are not a
malfunction of this System.
• Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmixed output. When
you play back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display
and the System plays back the left front and right front signals.
• 3D Phonic setting is also applied to the optical digital output
signals through the DVD OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal.
• When using Resume on SVCD or VCD with PBC, the
playback might start on a position slightly different from
where you have stopped.
• You can use Resume only for the DVD/SVCD/VCD except
for some discs—depending how the disc is programmed.
Daily Operations—Sound & Other Adjustments
(see pages 15 to 17)
Adjusting the Volume:
• Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting
the headphones.
Adjusting the Sound:
• This function also affects the sound through the headphones.
Setting the Clock:
• “0:00” will flash on the display until you set the clock.
• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this
happens, reset the clock.
Unique DVD/VCD Operations
• During slow-motion playback, no sound will be reproduced.
• While zoomed in, the picture may look coarse.
Advanced Disc Operations
Programming the Playing Order—Program Play:
• If you try to program a 100th track, “MEM FULL” appears on
the display.
• While programming steps...
Your entry will be ignored if you have tried to program an item
number that does not exist on the disc (for example, selecting
track 14 on a disc that only has 12 tracks).

On-Screen Disc Operations
(see pages 24 to 28)
• For JPEG files playback...
– It is recommended that you record a file at 640 x 480
resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of
more than 640 x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.)
– This System can play only baseline JPEG files. Progressive
JPEG files or lossless JPEG files cannot be played.
Baseline JPEG format:Used for digital cameras, web,
etc.
Progressive JPEG format:Used for web.
Lossless JPEG format:An old type and rarely used
now.
– This System may not play back JPEG files properly which
are recorded by the devices other than digital still camera.
– If progressive or lossless JPEG files are played back, a black
screen appears. In this case, stop playback and select a
baseline JPEG file. Note that it may take a long time to
select another file.
Advanced Tape Operations
(see pages 29 to 30)
Recording on a Tape:
• The recording level is automatically set correctly. Thus, you
can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without
affecting the recording level.
• There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto at the start
and end of cassette tapes. Thus, when recording CDs or radio
broadcasts, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the
recording will be made without any music part lost.
• If you start recording with no cassette inserted, “NO TAPE”
appears on the display. If a protected tape has been inserted,
“NO REC” appears.
• When using Reverse Mode for recording, start recording in the
forward (
3
) direction first; otherwise, recording will stop
when only one side (reverse) of the tape is recorded.
• You can also change Reverse Mode setting ( and )
after starting recording.
• You cannot open or close the disc tray while recording.
Synchronized Disc Recording:
• When the tape reaches its end in the forward direction (3
during recording with Reverse Mode set to , the last tune
will be re-recorded at the beginning of the reverse side.
Timer Operations
(see pages 31 to 32)
• When using an external component—“AUX” for the playback
source, set the timer built in the component at the same time.
• Before turning off the power, do not forget to prepare the
required materials—a disc or tape for playback and a
recordable tape for recording.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the clock
first, then the timer again.
• Without stopping the recording, you cannot change the source
after Recording Timer start recording.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing the
selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Recording Timer starts
recording, Recording Timer is canceled, but recording
continues until Sleep Timer shuts off the power.
Setup Menu Operations
(see pages 33 to 38)
LANGUAGE:
• When the language you have selected for “MENU
LANGUAGE,” “AUDIO LANGUAGE,” or “SUBTITLE” is
not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the
initial language.
PICTURE—MONITOR TYPE:
• Even if “4:3 PS” is selected, the screen size may become 4:3
letter box with some DVD Video discs. This depends on how
the discs are recorded.
• When you select “16:9” for a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3,
the picture slightly changes due to the process for converting
the picture width.
AUDIO—DOWN MIX:
• This setting is not effective when DTS multi-channel software
is played back.
OTHERS—ON SCREEN GUIDE:
• Setup Menus and on-screen bar will be displayed (and
recorded) even though this function is set to “OFF.”
Subtitles and the information for zooming in always appear on

a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.
– If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the
cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
• Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty places,
in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or speaker,
or near a magnet.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
• Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the heads,
capstans, and pinch rollers.
• Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and audio
shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System turned off).
Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System 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 System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged
or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it strongly.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides
to it.

distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it
may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the
following when installing the speakers.
• When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the
TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers. Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on
the TV’s main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have
followed the above. If this happens, move the speakers
away from the TV.
AV COMPU LINK remote control system
This system allows you to use JVC’s TV with simple
operations; by starting playing back a disc, the TV
automatically turns on and changes the input mode to the
appropriate position so that you can view the playback
picture.
• To use AV COMPU LINK, you need to connect the
System and the TV by using a cord with monaural miniplugs (not supplied) in addition to the video input/output
connection through the COMPONENT jacks, S-VIDEO
jack or VIDEO (composite) jack on the rear.

The System can play back the following digital audio
formats.
•
Linear PCM:
format used for CDs and most studio masters.
•
Dolby Digital:
Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode
to create the realistic surround sound.
•
DTS (Digital Theater Systems):
audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which
enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the
compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it
provides wider dynamic range and better separation.
When playing a multi-channel encoded DVD, the System
properly converts these multi-channel signals into 2
channels, and emits the downmixed sound from the
speakers.
•
To enjoy the powerful sound of these multi-channel
encoded DVDs,

Additional Information
Learning More about This System
Getting Started
Changing the Scanning Mode
• To enjoy the progressive video picture, connect a TV with the
progressive video input using component video cord.
Before Operating the System
Playable Disc Types:
• If you play back an NTSC disc with this setting set to “PAL,”
you can watch the playback pictures (the disc will be
reproduced using “PAL 60” format), but the TV screen may
roll over upward and downward rapidly.
• If you play back a PAL disc with this setting set to “NTSC,”
you can watch the playback pictures, but the following
symptoms may occur:
– The items on the disc menu will be blurred, and be shown
slightly shifted when highlighted.
– The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the original
aspect ratio.
– The picture movement is not smooth.
Daily Operations—Playback
Listening to the Radio:
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number, the
previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If this
happens, preset the stations again.
Playing Back a Tape:
• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes. These
tapes easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans, and may
cause characteristic deterioration.
Playing Back a Disc:
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than
regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file
configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter
case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This
System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than 64
kbps.
– This System can recognize the total of 1000 tracks and of 99
groups (each group can contain up to 150 tracks). Those
exceeding the maximum number cannot be recognized.
– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from
the one you have intended while recording (see page 40). If
a folder does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are
ignored.
(see pages 3 to 6)
(see pages 7 to 9)
(see pages 10 to 14)
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the disc
tray.
•
On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD discs, the actual operations
may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to
the programming and disc structure; such differences are not a
malfunction of this System.
• Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmixed output. When
you play back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display
and the System plays back the left front and right front signals.
• 3D Phonic setting is also applied to the optical digital output
signals through the DVD OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal.
• When using Resume on SVCD or VCD with PBC, the
playback might start on a position slightly different from
where you have stopped.
• You can use Resume only for the DVD/SVCD/VCD except
for some discs—depending how the disc is programmed.
Daily Operations—Sound & Other Adjustments
(see pages 15 to 17)
Adjusting the Volume:
• Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting
the headphones.
Adjusting the Sound:
• This function also affects the sound through the headphones.
Setting the Clock:
• “0:00” will flash on the display until you set the clock.
• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this
happens, reset the clock.
Unique DVD/VCD Operations
• During slow-motion playback, no sound will be reproduced.
• While zoomed in, the picture may look coarse.
Advanced Disc Operations

On-Screen Disc Operations
(see pages 24 to 28)
• For JPEG files playback...
– It is recommended that you record a file at 640 x 480
resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of
more than 640 x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.)
– This System can play only baseline JPEG files. Progressive
JPEG files or lossless JPEG files cannot be played.
Baseline JPEG format:Used for digital cameras, web,
etc.
Progressive JPEG format:Used for web.
Lossless JPEG format:An old type and rarely used
now.
– This System may not play back JPEG files properly which
are recorded by the devices other than digital still camera.
– If progressive or lossless JPEG files are played back, a black
screen appears. In this case, stop playback and select a
baseline JPEG file. Note that it may take a long time to
select another file.
Advanced Tape Operations
(see pages 29 to 30)
Recording on a Tape:
• The recording level is automatically set correctly. Thus, you
can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without
affecting the recording level.
• There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto at the start
and end of cassette tapes. Thus, when recording CDs or radio
broadcasts, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the
recording will be made without any music part lost.
• If you start recording with no cassette inserted, “NO TAPE”
appears on the display. If a protected tape has been inserted,
“NO REC” appears.
• When using Reverse Mode for recording, start recording in the
forward (
3
) direction first; otherwise, recording will stop
when only one side (reverse) of the tape is recorded.
• You can also change Reverse Mode setting ( and )
after starting recording.
• You cannot open or close the disc tray while recording.
Synchronized Disc Recording:
• When the tape reaches its end in the forward direction (3
during recording with Reverse Mode set to , the last tune
will be re-recorded at the beginning of the reverse side.
Timer Operations
(see pages 31 to 32)
• When using an external component—“AUX” for the playback
source, set the timer built in the component at the same time.
• Before turning off the power, do not forget to prepare the
required materials—a disc or tape for playback and a
recordable tape for recording.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the clock
first, then the timer again.
• Without stopping the recording, you cannot change the source
after Recording Timer start recording.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing the
selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Recording Timer starts
recording, Recording Timer is canceled, but recording
continues until Sleep Timer shuts off the power.
Setup Menu Operations
(see pages 33 to 38)
LANGUAGE:
• When the language you have selected for “MENU
LANGUAGE,” “AUDIO LANGUAGE,” or “SUBTITLE” is
not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the
initial language.
PICTURE—MONITOR TYPE:
• Even if “4:3 PS” is selected, the screen size may become 4:3
letter box with some DVD Video discs. This depends on how
the discs are recorded.
• When you select “16:9” for a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3,
the picture slightly changes due to the process for converting
the picture width.
AUDIO—DOWN MIX:
• This setting is not effective when DTS multi-channel software
is played back.
OTHERS—ON SCREEN GUIDE:
• Setup Menus and on-screen bar will be displayed (and
recorded) even though this function is set to “OFF.”

Maintenance
To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs,
tapes, and mechanism clean.
Handling discs
• When removing the disc from its case, hold 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.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and
moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to
edge.
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 rotate it.
– If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the
cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
• Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty places,
in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or speaker,
or near a magnet.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
• Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the heads,
capstans, and pinch rollers.
• Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and audio
shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System turned off).
Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System 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 System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged
or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it strongly.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides
to it.
