Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use
in potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones is an open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume
so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level”
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal”
can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably
and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Rechargeable batteries
• Only the BN-R122J battery can be recharged.
• If the power delivered by the batteries lasts for a very short
time after recharging, it means that the batteries’ service life is
over. Do not use them any more.

Before requesting service for this unit, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem
you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the
problem and restore proper operation.
If you are in doubt about some of the check points, or if the remedies indicated in the chart do not
solve the problem, refer to the directory of Authorized Service Centers (enclosed with this unit) to
locate a convenient service center, or consult your dealer for instructions.
Problem
Cannot close cover.
Cannot play discs.
Cannot remove disc.
Tracks on disc do not play
in order, starting with the
first track.
Cannot hear music—too
noisy.
TV picture is distorted.
Radio reception is noisy.
• Recharging already charged batteries will shorten their service
life.
• When recharging batteries for the first time or when they have
not been used for a long period of time, the play time may be
shorter than usual. In a case like this, repeatedly recharge and
discharge the batteries. This will restore them to their regular
state.
• Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of rechargeable batteries since this may cause short-circuiting
which is dangerous.
• Do not peel off the plastic covering on the rechargeable batteries. Short-circuiting may occur which is dangerous.
Dry cell batteries / rechargeable
batteries
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed
the following points.
• Align the , and . polarities properly when inserting the batteries.
• Do not mix different types or makers of batteries or old and
new batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a
long period of time.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire, and do not short-circuit, disassemble or subject them to excessive heat.
• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Carrying dry cell batteries /
rechargeable batteries around
When putting dry cell or rechargeable batteries in a pocket or
bag, ensure that no other metal objects such as a necklace are
placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause shortcircuiting which, in turn, may cause a fire.
Be absolutely sure to carry the rechargeable batteries in the battery carrying case.
Check this
Is the disc properly secured in place?
• Is the unit in HOLD status?
• Is the disc properly secured in place?
• Is there moisture condensation on the lens?
(Wait for about an hour and then try again.)
Did you press the PUSH button to release the disc?
Is the RESUME, NORMAL, RANDOM (play mode) selector
in the NORMAL position?
• Is the headphone plug inserted all the way?
• Is the plug dirty? (Wipe away dirt on the plug.)
Are you using the unit body too near a TV or tuner? (If the
TV or tuner is connected to a simple indoor antenna,
connect it to an outdoor antenna.)
When purchasing rechargeable
batteries
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made by JVC
have a construction designed to make it impossible to recharge
ordinary batteries.

• The position of the T.S.P. switch can be changed during play,
but this may cause a slight interruption in the sound because
the disc’s rotational speed changes.
• During T.S.P. operation, the disc rotates at a higher rate than
usual in order to collect extra audio data. This may cause the
batteries to run out faster and could result in a slight increase
in disc rotation noise.
