Precautions		Features

Thank you for purchasing this JVC product. Please read these instructions through carefully before starting operation to ensure that you will derive the optimum performance and a long service life from your unit.

Safeguarding against electric shocks, fire hazards and damage

1)A very low current will still flow even when the POWER (for Canada and U.S.A.)/ (for other countries) button is set at STANDBY. To save power and ensure safety when the unit is not going to be used for an extended period of time, disconnect the power cords from the household AC outlet. (See page 10)

2)Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

3)To unplug the power cord from the household AC outlet, always take hold of the molded plug part and pull the plug free rather than pulling the cord.

4)If the power cord is damaged or found to have a disconnected wire or a contact failure, consult your dealer.

5)Do not bend the cord at a sharp angle, and do not pull or twist it.

6)Do not modify the power cord in any way.

7)Do not remove the screws in order to disassemble the unit, and do not touch any of the parts inside the unit.

8)Do not insert metallic objects into the unit.

9)Unplug the power cord during electrical storms.

10)If water should find its way inside the unit, unplug the power cord from the outlet, and consult your dealer.

11)Do not install the unit in a poorly ventilated location.

Installation

1)Avoid placing the unit on or adjacent to an amplifier. This is to prevent the humming caused by the unit’s proximity to some types of amplifiers. Move the unit where it will not be affected by the amplifier.

2)Avoid installing the unit where the ambient temperature will exceed 35 °C (namely, in direct sunlight, near a heating appliance, etc.) or drop below 5 °C, where it is very humid or dusty, or where the unit will be subject to vibration.

3)The unit may not function properly if it is moved suddenly from a cold place (0 °C) to a warm place since condensation may form inside the unit. In such a case, leave the unit standing for about couple of hours, after which time it should function properly.

Disc care

•Storing CDs

•Always ensure that each CD is stored in its own case.

•Do not place CDs in direct sunlight, near a heating appliance or any other location which is susceptible to high temperatures.

•If cellophane tape, an adhesive sticker or some other form of glue is present on the label side, clean it off before use.

•Do not stick adhesive labels or write anything on a CD.

•Do not bend CDs.

•Do NOT insert shaped CDs, such as CDs in a heart, flower or other shape, because their shape does not match the shape of the CD tray, and using them will give rise to malfunctioning.

Cleaning the cabinet

Never use benzine or paint thinners to clean the cabinet as they may mar the unit’s surface finish.

All of the functions and conveniences of having a 3-CD changer and CDR in a single combination deck

•3-CD changer compatible with CD-RW

•CDR capable of performing high speed (2x) recording of discs loaded in the 3-CD changer

•Optical digital/analog input and output with an additional input for microphone

•Sampling frequency converter capable of converting digital signals with sampling frequency of 32 kHz and 48 kHz to digital signals with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz for quality recording from a variety of sources

•No sampling frequency conversion of 44.1 kHz signals for optimal recording of CDs

•Mixing and recording of the 3-CD changer playback and either microphone input or an externally input source, or even the microphone input and the externally input source

•Many convenient recording options including: one-button CD and single track recording, Listening and Program Edit recording, manual recording, synchronized start recording, and mixed input recording

•CD playback pitch control that can adjust the speed of play up to 12% faster or slower than the normal speed to alter the pitch for singing along to or other customized uses

•Timer playback and timer recording that can be set for one-time or everyday operation

•OPC (Optimize Power Control), strength adjustment performed for best possible recording onto CD-R and CD-RW media

Types of Discs Compatible with the Unit

The following disc formats can be used in the CDR for recording.

In addition to the marks shown above, the phrases shown below or their equivalent should also be present somewhere on the packaging or accompanying documentation:

FOR CONSUMER

FOR CONSUMER USE

FOR MUSIC USE ONLY

Discs that cannot be used for recording are as follows:

•Discs bearing marks other than those shown above

•Discs intended for professional use and/or marked “FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY”

•Discs intended for recording computer data

In addition to the two disc formats shown above, the following disc format can also be played in either the 3CD changer or CDR.

Notes

•Although the CDR can play all 3 types of discs at any time, the 3-CD changer can only play CD-R and CD-RW after they have been finalized. For more information on finalization of CD-R and CD-RW, see page 29.

•The unit can playback audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-Text discs.

•If a CD-R or CD-RW has been recorded using a personal computer, playback is only possible if the disc is recorded in the CD Audio format.

Note

•Before selecting the COMPU LINK-4 mode (CDR or TD), disconnect the power cord from the power outlet to turn off the power. The function will not be set if it is selected while the power is on.

Alternatively, when the COMPU LINK-4 mode (CDR or TD) is selected while the power is on, disconnect the power cord and then re-connect it.

•Misconnections can be avoided by using the white plugs on the accessory pin cables for the LEFT channel and the red plugs for the RIGHT channel.

•Insert the plugs all the way in. Incomplete connections may cause noise.

•When plugging the power cord into the AC outlet, be sure to match the width of the plug blades with the outlet.

Digital Connections

Before proceeding, check whether the optical digital cable can be connected.

•Connect a receiver or amplifier with digital audio capability to the DIGITAL OPTICAL connectors on this unit.

•One connecting cable is used to transmit the stereo signals (L/

R)as a digital signal.

•If analog audio connections are also being made, try to use the digital connectors on the receiver or amplifier that are labeled the same way as the analog connectors.

•Before purchasing an optical digital cable (optional), make sure that the cable in question can be connected to the amplifier, etc.

•Do not bend the optical digital cable at a sharp angle.

•When the power is turned on, the inside of the connector lights up red. This light is for sending the digital signals. Although this light will not harm your eyes, keep the protective cap in place if the connector is not going to be used.

REMOTE CONTROL

RM-SXLR5000J

•Point the remote control correctly at the remote control sensor on the main unit when pressing the buttons.

•The remote control can be operated at a distance of up to 7 meters or so from the remote control sensor. This distance will be less if the remote control is operated from a position which is not directly in front or on the same level as the main unit.

•When the distance over which the remote control can be operated starts to drop, it means that the batteries are nearing the end of their service life.

•Replace both batteries (AA (15F), R6, SUM-3) with fresh units.

•The dry batteries provided with the unit are for operational check purposes. Replace them with fresh units at the earliest opportunity.

•Do not drop the remote control or subject it to strong impact.

•In order to ensure that the remote control does not fail to operate, avoid operation under the following conditions:

•When the remote control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or other intense sources of light

•When objects in front of the remote control sensor block the transmission of signals from the remote control
