Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the JVC Compact Component System.

We hope it will be a valued addition to your home, giving you years of enjoyment.

Be sure to read this instruction manual carefully before operating your new stereo system.

In it you will find all the information you need to set up and use the system.

If you have a query that is not answered by the manual, please contact your dealer.

Features

Here are some of the things that make your System both powerful and simple to use.

With the slot-loading CD mechanism, you can choose to place the System either vertically or horizontally.

The controls and operations have been redesigned to make them very easy to use, freeing you to just enjoy the music.

• With JVC’s COMPU PLAY you can turn on the System and automatically start the Radio or CD Player with a single touch.

The System incorporates Active Hyper Bass PRO circuitry to faithfully reproduce low frequency sounds.

A 45-station preset capability (30 FM and 15 AM (MW/LW)) in addition to auto-seek and manual tuning.

CD options that include repeat, random and program play.

Timer functions; Daily Timer and Sleep Timer.

The System is compatible with RDS (Radio Data System) broadcasting.

The Enahanced Other Networks data enables you to standby for desired information.

The PTY Search function searches for programmes in the category you wish.

In addition, Radio Text can be displayed using data sent by station.

You can connect various external units, such as an MD recorder.

The system can play CD-R and CD-RW after they have been finalized.

You can play back your original CD-R or CD-RW recorded in Music CD format. (However they may not be played back depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.)

How This Manual Is Organized

Basic information that is the same for many different functions - e.g. setting the volume - is given in the section ‘Basic Operations’, and not repeated under each function.

The names of buttons/controls and display messages are written in all capital letters: e.g. FM/AM, “CD NO DISC”.

System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play.

Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require.

We have enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.

WARNINGS

DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON THE PANEL. IF THE SYSTEM IS OPERATED WITH SOMETHING PUT ON THE PANEL, IT WILL BE DAMAGED WHEN YOU TRY TO OPEN THE PANEL.

SUPPLIED SPEAKERS ARE EXCLUSIVELY FOR THIS SYSTEM. USING WITH OTHER DEVICES WILL DAMAGE THE SPEAKERS.

IMPORTANT CAUTIONS

1Installation of the System

Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. (Between 5°C and 35°C or 41°F and 95°F.)

Leave sufficient distance between the System and a TV.

Do not use the System in a place subject to vibrations.

2Power cord

Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

Some power is always consumed as long as the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.

When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord.

3Malfunctions, etc.

There are no user serviceable parts inside. In case of system failure, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer.

Do not insert any metallic object into the System.

Do not insert your hand between the Panel and the main body when the Panel is being closed.

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

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 between the Speaker terminals of the Unit and the terminals of the Speakers. 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.

SPEAKER IMPEDANCE 4 16

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:

Although the speaker SP-VSDT9 has internal magnetic shielding, a TV may display irregular colors if located near the speakers. If this happens, set the speakers away from the TV.

Removing the speaker grilles

The speaker grilles can be removed.
