Getting Started
CAUTION:
• Make all connections before plugging the System into an AC power outlet.
• Handling the speakers As this is a precision instrument, handle it carefully so as to protect it from shocks.
Connecting the Speakers (SP-VSDT2000)
These speakers are exclusively for this system. Using with other devices will damege the speakers.
1. Open each of the terminals to connect the speaker wire leads.
2. Connect the speaker cords to the Speaker terminals of the Unit. Connect the cords with a black line to the (–) terminals and cords without a black line to the (+) terminals.
3. Close each of the terminals to securely connect the cords.

• Since both speakers are the same, you can put either one to the right or left side.
• Do not connect other speakers to the Unit. The difference of the load impedance causes failures.
• Do not use the supplied speakers in parallel with other speakers.
CAUTION:
• A TV may display irregular colors if located near the speakers. If this happens, set the speak­ers away from the TV.
• Take care not to short-circuit the wire leads for the speakers, as this will damage the center unit (CA-VSDT2000). We recommend that you use the high-quality speaker cord provided. However, if you want to use different cables, please observe the following.
1) Remove the screws on either side and remove the cover.
2) Loosen the terminal screws and remove the speaker cord.

Installing the Equipment on the Wall
English
The Center Unit and Speakers can be attached to a wall.
CAUTIONS:
Attachment to a wall
• The Center Unit weighs approximately 4.3 kg. When its buttons are operated, an additional force will be applied to it in the downward direction. Therefore, sufficient care must be taken when attaching to a wall to prevent any accidents caused by the Center Unit’s falling off the wall.
• Before attaching the Center Unit to the wall, check the wall and other related aspects, and verify whether the strength of the wall will be sufficient not only to support the weight of the Center Unit itself but also to withstand the additional downward force which will be applied to it during operation. (Do not attach the Center Unit to a plywood or plasterboard wall. The Center Unit may fall and sustain damage as a re­sult.) If you do not know the strength of the wall and other aspects, consult a qualified service person (such as a qualified constructor).
• The screws needed for attachment are not supplied. Use screws which are compatible with the strength and material of the pillar or wall.
• When attaching the Center Unit, the screws must be secured tightly in all three locations. Attaching the Center Unit to the wall by making only one or two holes for the screws makes for an unstable attachment and causes a safety hazard as the Center Unit may fall down.
Location of attachment to a wall
• Care is required in selecting a location for attaching the Center Unit to the wall. Injury to personnel, or damage to the Center Unit, may result if the Center Unit is attached in a location which interferes with daily activities or a location that the users are liable to knock their bodies or heads against.
• Avoid a location above a bed, sofa, water tank, sink, etc. or in a passage.
Example of attachment (Center Unit)
The procedure below is intended merely to illustrate how the Center Unit can be attached to a wall and does not make any guarantees for safety while using the Center Unit on a wall. Take into account such factors as the material and strength of the wall, the status of the reinforcing material, and the possible changes that will take place over time.
• The cords must be connected to the Center Unit before attaching to a wall. (See page 4.)
1. Select the place where the Center Unit is to be attached.
2. Mount three screws (not supplied) on the wall. (See the dia­gram below for the details of the size.)
• The supplied paper pattern will assist in determining the
positions of the screws.

3. Hook the Center Unit onto the attached screws.
4. Slide the Center Unit to the side, and secure it.
• Adjust the screws if the Center Unit is not attached firmly.

• Do not place anything on top of the Center Unit. Doing so may cause the Center Unit to fall, causing malfunctioning and/or injury.
• Do not climb onto the Center Unit or hang from it. Doing so may damage the Center Unit and/or cause injury. Special care must be taken in this respect when there are small children in the home.
• Avoid sandwiching the cords between the Center Unit and wall. This may upset the Center Unit’s balance, causing the Center Unit to fall.
• Make sure that the cords will not interfere with daily activities and that the users will not trip over them. Do not pull the con­nected cords with excessive force.
• Check regularly that none of the screws are loose.
• In the event that the Center Unit has fallen, turn off the power, disconnect its power plug from the power outlet, and contact your dealer for an inspection and repairs. Continued use of the Center Unit may result in a fire or electric shocks.
• Do not place valuables (breakables) underneath the location where the Center Unit is attached. They will be damaged if the Center Unit should fall.
• The manufacturer accepts absolutely no liability for any accidents or damage resulting from inadequate assembly or mount­ing, insufficient strength of attachment, misuse or abuse, or natural disasters.

COMPU Play
JVCs COMPU PLAY feature lets you control the most frequently used System functions with a single touch. With One Touch Operation you can play a CD, turn on the radio, or listen to an external equipment with a single press of the play button for that function. One Touch Operation turns the power on for you, then starts the function you have specified. If the System is not ready (no CD in place), the System still powers on so you can insert a CD. How One Touch Operation works in each case is explained in the section dealing with that function. The COMPU PLAY buttons are:

Care And Maintenance

Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.
Compact Discs
English
• Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. How­ever, continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octago­nal, etc.) can damage the System.
• Do not stick a paper tape or a seal on the reading side or the label side. If you do so, the CD may not be unloaded, or the System can be damaged.
• Remove the CD from its case by holding it at the edges while pressing the case’s center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD.
• Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the sur­face of the CD when placing it back in the case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and mois­ture.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.
• Keep the System’s Panel closed when not in use.
Cleaning the unit
• Stains on the unit Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit 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 unit may deteriorate in quality, become dam­aged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the fol­lowings.
- DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
- DO NOT wipe it strong.
- DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
- DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecti-
cides to it.
- DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in con-
tact with it for a long time.
• A dirty CD may not play cor­rectly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
CAUTION:
• Do not use any solvent (for example, con­ventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.
Moisture Condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the System in the following cases:
• After turning on heating in the room.
• In a damp room.
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.
