Introduction

Suitable Locations for the Main Unit

To minimize the need for servicing and maintain the high quality of this product, do not place the main unit in the following locations:
• In a position subject to high humidity or consid­erable dust
• On an uneven or unstable surface
• Near a heat source
• Near a computer, fluorescent light or other elec­tric appliance
• In a small room with insufficient ventilation
• In a position exposed to direct sunlight
• In a position exposed to excessive cold
• In a position exposed to strong vibration
• Near a TV, other amplifier, or tuner
• Near a magnetic source
CAUTION
• The operating temperature of this product is 5°C to 35°C. Use in temperatures outside this range may cause a malfunction or damage the product.

Condensation

Under the following conditions, you may not be able to operate this product properly due to con­densation formed on the lens of the main unit:
• When you have just started an air conditioner to warm your room
• When you have placed the main unit at an area with high humidity
• When you have moved the main unit from a cold place to a warm place
When condensation forms, leave the main unit turned on, wait for approximately 1 or 2 hours, and then operate the main unit.

Cleaning the Main Unit

When the operation panel becomes dirty, dust it with a soft dry cloth. When the operation panel is very dirty, wipe it with a cloth dampened with a small amount of a neutral detergent, and then wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
CAUTION
• Do not wipe the operation panel with thinners, ben­zenes or other chemical agents. Do not spray insecticides onto the operation panel. These may cause discoloration and damage to the surface.

Listener's Etiquette

When using headphones, keep the volume at a moderate level so as not to over-stimulate your ears.
When enjoying sound from the speakers, adjust the volume to a suitable level to avoid disturbing your neighbors. Even low-volume sound carries a long way, especially at night. Show consideration to your neighbors by closing windows or using headphones.

About CD-Rs/CD-RWs and DVD-Rs/DVD-RWs
• Playback is impossible in some cases due to the disc characteristics, recording condition, scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt or condensation on the lens.
• Before using a disc, carefully read the cautions regarding the disc.
• This product does not support playback or CD text display of sound files such as MP3s.
• To play back a CD-RW or DVD-RW on this product, erase all tracks if the CD­RW or DVD-RW was recorded in a format other than the format described on the left. Using the CD-RW or DVD-RW with­out erasing all tracks may result in dam­age to the speakers or other parts caused by sudden loud volume.
Discs that cannot be played back
• The following discs cannot be played back: DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, DVD-RAM, Photo CD,
SACD, etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and
damage the speakers.
• Damaged discs and discs in an extraordinary shape (other than a disc of 12 cm or 8 cm in diameter) cannot be played back.
• JVC do not guarantee the operation and sound quality of discs not authorized by CD-DA, which is a CD specification. Before playback, confirm that the disc complies with this CD specification by checking the marks and reading notes printed on the package.

(Continued) Notes on Operation
About MP3/WMA/JPEG discs
Playable MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• CDs recorded in the ISO 9660 format are play­able (except CDs recorded in the "packet write" format (UDF format)).
• CDs recorded in the multi-session format are also playable.
• Files with an extension of ".mp3", ".wma", ".jpg" or ".jpeg" (extensions with uppercase and lower­case letters mixed are also acceptable) are play­able.
• This product cannot play back DVDs recorded in multi-session or multi-border format.
Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• A disc may not be played back, or reading it may take a long time depending on its recording con­ditions or properties.
• The time needed for reading varies with the num­ber of groups or tracks (files) recorded on the disc.
• If a character other than single byte English characters is used in the file name of an MP3/ WMA/JPEG file, the track/file name will not be displayed correctly.
• The order of tracks/groups displayed on the MP3/WMA Control screen, and the order of files/ groups displayed on the JPEG Control screen may be different from that of files/folders dis­played on a computer monitor screen.
• In the case of MP3/WMA discs, since groups/ tracks are played back in alphabetical order, a commercially available MP3/WMA disc may be played back in an order different from that indi­cated on the label attached to the disc.
• Playing back an MP3 file including a still image may take a long time. The elapsed time is not displayed until playing back starts. If playing back starts, the elapsed time may not be dis­played correctly.
• For an MP3 file, a disc with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz and transmission rate of 128 kbps is recommended.
• This product is not compatible with MP3i or MP3PRO.
• This product can play back a baseline JPEG file, excluding monochromatic JPEG files.
• This product can play back JPEG data taken with a digital camera conforming to the DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System) standard (when a function such as the automatic image rotation function of a digital camera is applied, the data no longer complies with the DCF standard, so the image may not be displayed).
• If data has been processed, edited and restored with PC image editing software, the data may not be displayed.
• This product cannot play back animations such as MOTION JPEG, still pictures (TIFF etc.) other than JPEG, or image data with sound.
• The resolution of 640 x 480 pixels is recom­mended for JPEG files. If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480 pixels, display may take a long time. An image with a resolution of more than 8 192 x 7 680 pix­els cannot be displayed.
Introduction

Disc Structure

DVD VIDEO
A DVD VIDEO consists of "titles" and each title may be divided into "chapters".
Title 1 Title 2
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 2
DVD AUDIO
A DVD AUDIO consists of "groups" and each group may be divided into "tracks". Some discs include a "bonus group" that requires
a password for playing ( page 31).
Group 1 Group 2
Track 1Track 2Track 3Track 1Track 2
VCD/SVCD/CD
VCD, SVCD and CD consist of "tracks". In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be further divided by indexes.)
Track 1Track 2Track 3Track 4Track 5
MP3/WMA [JPEG] discs
On an MP3/WMA [JPEG] disc, each still picture (material) is recorded as a track [file]. Tracks [Files] are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers. This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages folders by "groups".
Up to 99 groups
Group 1 Group 2
Track 1
[File 1]
This product can recognize up to 4 000 tracks [files] in a disc. Also, the product can recognize up to 150 tracks [files] per group and up to 99 groups in a disc. Since the unit ignores tracks [files] with numbers exceeding 150 and groups with numbers exceeding 99, these cannot be played back.
• If there is any type of files other than MP3/WMA [JPEG] files in a disc, those tracks [files] are also counted in the total file number.
Track 2
[File 2]
Up to 150 files

About MP3/WMA/JPEG discs
Playable MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• CDs recorded in the ISO 9660 format are play­able (except CDs recorded in the "packet write" format (UDF format)).
• CDs recorded in the multi-session format are also playable.
• Files with an extension of ".mp3", ".wma", ".jpg" or ".jpeg" (extensions with uppercase and lower­case letters mixed are also acceptable) are play­able.
• This product cannot play back DVDs recorded in multi-session or multi-border format.
Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• A disc may not be played back, or reading it may take a long time depending on its recording con­ditions or properties.
• The time needed for reading varies with the num­ber of groups or tracks (files) recorded on the disc.
• If a character other than single byte English characters is used in the file name of an MP3/ WMA/JPEG file, the track/file name will not be displayed correctly.
• The order of tracks/groups displayed on the MP3/WMA Control screen, and the order of files/ groups displayed on the JPEG Control screen may be different from that of files/folders dis­played on a computer monitor screen.
• In the case of MP3/WMA discs, since groups/ tracks are played back in alphabetical order, a commercially available MP3/WMA disc may be played back in an order different from that indi­cated on the label attached to the disc.
• Playing back an MP3 file including a still image may take a long time. The elapsed time is not displayed until playing back starts. If playing back starts, the elapsed time may not be dis­played correctly.
• For an MP3 file, a disc with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz and transmission rate of 128 kbps is recommended.
• This product is not compatible with MP3i or MP3PRO.
• This product can play back a baseline JPEG file, excluding monochromatic JPEG files.
• This product can play back JPEG data taken with a digital camera conforming to the DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System) standard (when a function such as the automatic image rotation function of a digital camera is applied, the data no longer complies with the DCF standard, so the image may not be displayed).
• If data has been processed, edited and restored with PC image editing software, the data may not be displayed.
• This product cannot play back animations such as MOTION JPEG, still pictures (TIFF etc.) other than JPEG, or image data with sound.
• The resolution of 640 x 480 pixels is recom­mended for JPEG files. If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480 pixels, display may take a long time. An image with a resolution of more than 8 192 x 7 680 pix­els cannot be displayed.
Introduction

Disc Structure

DVD VIDEO
A DVD VIDEO consists of "titles" and each title may be divided into "chapters".
Title 1 Title 2
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 2
DVD AUDIO
A DVD AUDIO consists of "groups" and each group may be divided into "tracks". Some discs include a "bonus group" that requires
a password for playing ( page 31).
Group 1 Group 2
Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 1 Track 2
VCD/SVCD/CD
VCD, SVCD and CD consist of "tracks". In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be further divided by indexes.)
Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5
MP3/WMA [JPEG] discs
On an MP3/WMA [JPEG] disc, each still picture (material) is recorded as a track [file]. Tracks [Files] are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers. This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages folders by "groups".
Up to 99 groups
Group 1 Group 2
Track 1
[File 1]
This product can recognize up to 4 000 tracks [files] in a disc. Also, the product can recognize up to 150 tracks [files] per group and up to 99 groups in a disc. Since the unit ignores tracks [files] with numbers exceeding 150 and groups with numbers exceeding 99, these cannot be played back.
• If there is any type of files other than MP3/WMA [JPEG] files in a disc, those tracks [files] are also counted in the total file number.
Track 2
[File 2]
Up to 150 files
