INTRODUCTION
Precautions
Load compact discs only
Never insert anything other than compact discs into any part of the
player.
If a problem persists
If something goes wrong, turn off the power immediately. If the same
problem reoccurs when the power is turned on once more, turn off the
power again and consult your JVC dealer.
Handling the power cord
When unplugging from the wall socket, always pull the plug body,
never the power cable.
Volume settings
A CD player has almost zero background noise. Because of this, the
technique of listening to the background level and then setting the
volume before the music starts, as used with analog turntables or tape
decks, cannot be used. If you raise the volume level too high, speaker
damage may result.
Condensation
The CD player uses optical components. If it is moved from a cold
location to a warm one, or is used in a room subject to excessive
humidity or where a fire has just been lit, condensation could form on
the optical components.
This may prevent the laser beam from being properly transmitted and
thus causes noise or even a malfunction.
If condensation has formed and the CD player does not function
correctly, we recommend that you leave it turned on for an hour or two.
If at the end of this time the CD player still does not function properly,
please consult your JVC dealer.
Transporting the unit
When carrying this unit, it is best to avoid either tilting it or turning it
upside-down. Where you cannot avoid doing so, please remove the
discs first.

GENERAL INFORMATIONS
COMPU LINK remote control system
The COMPU LINK Remote Control System controls relative
operations between components automatically and facilitates
various operations.
This is a system originated and developed by JVC for facilitating
various system operations.
The following is a brief explanation of this system:
Automatic source selection
When the supplied COMPU LINK cord is utilized to connect this unit to
others equipped with COMPU LINK jacks, switching-in of each system
component can be performed with a single touch on the source
selector button located on a JVC amplifier or receiver.
When selection is carried out in this manner, the corresponding unit will
automatically start operation.
Upon pressing of the play button, the source selector of the amplifier
or receiver changes automatically. When a new unit is switched in, the
previously selected component stops operation within five seconds.
Synchronized recording
Synchronized recording refers to the process in which a JVC cassette
deck starts recording, synchronized with this unit. Synchronized
recording is carried out as follows:
1. Set the cassette deck to the recording pause mode in accordance
with its instructions.
2. To record only certain tracks, program the tracks in any order, as
desired.
3. Press the 3 PLAY/8 PAUSE button on the front panel of this unit.
The cassette deck automatically starts recording, synchronized
with this unit.

simultaneously, synchronized recording is not possible. For details,
refer to the instructions for the cassette deck.

this unit respectively as the following.
÷ When this unit enters playback mode, the power of the receiver or
amplifier is turned on.

function mode, the power of this unit is turned on.
Notes

Care and handling
How to handle CDs
When handling compact discs, do not touch the surface of the disc (reflective silver side — the side without the label).
Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If
the disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the sound will not be
picked up correctly and, in addition, such discs may cause the CD
player to malfunction.
Even on label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on
the surface.
Maintenance of discs
When there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe the
disc with a soft, dry cloth with a movement going from the center
outwards.
If difficult to clean, wipe the disc with a cloth moistened with water.
Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled one on
top of another without their protective cases, they can be damaged.
Do not put discs in any location where they can be exposed to direct
sunlight, or in any place where humidity or temperature is high. Avoid
leaving discs in your car!
