Note:  
For security reasons, a numbered ID card is provided with this unit, and the same ID number is imprinted on  
the unit’s chassis. Keep the card in a safe place, as it will help the authorities to identify your unit if stolen.  
BEFORE USE  
*For safety....  
*Temperature inside the car....  
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or  
cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car  
becomes normal before operating the unit.  
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will  
block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.  
• Stop the car before performing any complicated  
operations.

Before using the remote controller:  
• Aim the remote controller directly at the remote  
sensor on the main unit. Make sure there is no  
obstacle in between.  
3. Return the battery holder.  
Insert again the battery holder pushing it until  
you hear a clicking sound.  
Remote sensor  
(back side)  
• Do not expose the remote sensor to strong  
light (direct sunlight or artificial lighting).  
WARNING:  
Installing the battery  
When the controllable range or effectiveness of the  
remote controller decreases, replace the battery.  
• Store the battery in a place where children cannot  
reach.  
If a child accidentally swallows the battery,  
consult a doctor immediately.  
• Do not recharge, short, disassemble or heat the  
battery or dispose it in a fire.  
Doing any of these things may cause the battery to  
give off heat, crack or start a fire.  
• Do not leave the battery with other metallic  
materials.  
1. Remove the battery holder.  
1) Push out the battery holder in the direction  
indicated by the arrow using a ball-point  
pen or a similar tool.  
2) Remove the battery holder.  
Doing this may cause the battery to give off heat,  
crack or start a fire.  
• When throwing away or saving the battery, wrap it  
in tape and insulate; otherwise, the battery may  
start to give off heat, crack or start a fire.  
• Do not poke the battery with tweezers or similar  
tools.  
(back side)  
Doing this may cause the battery to give off heat,

RDS OPERATIONS  
What you can do with RDS  
To use Network-Tracking Reception  
You can select the different modes of network-  
tracking reception to continue listening to the  
same programme in its finest reception.  
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to  
send an additional signal along with their regular  
programme signals. For example, the stations  
send their station names, as well as information  
about what type of programme they broadcast,  
such as sports or music, etc.  
Another advantage of RDS function is called  
“Enhanced Other Networks.By using the  
Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a  
station, you can tune in to a different station of a  
different network broadcasting your favourite  
programme or traffic announcement while  
listening to another programme or to another  
source such as tape.  
When shipped from the factory, AF” is selected.  
• AF:  
Network-Tracking Reception is  
activated with Regionalization set to  
“off.”  
With this setting, the unit switches to  
another station within the same  
network when the receiving signals  
from the current station become  
weak. (In this mode, the programme  
may differ from the one currently  
received.)  
The AF indicator lights up but the  
REG indicator does not.  
By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the  
following:  
Tracing the same programme automatically  
(Network-Tracking Reception)  
• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement)  
or your favourite programme  
• PTY (Programme Type) search  
• Programme search  
• And some other functions  
• AF REG: Network-Tracking Reception is  
activated with Regionalization set to  
“on.”  
With this setting, the unit switches to  
another station, within the same  
network, broadcasting the same  
programme when the receiving  
signals from the current station  
become weak.  
Both the AF indicator and the REG  
indicator light up.  
Tracing the same programme  
automatically (Network-Tracking  
Reception)  
• OFF:  
Network-Tracking Reception is  
deactivated.  
When driving in an area where FM reception is  
not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically  
tunes in to another RDS station, broadcasting the  
same programme with stronger signals. So, you  
can continue to listen to the same programme in  
its finest reception, no matter where you drive.  
(See the illustration on the next page.)  
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG  
indicator lights up.  
REG indicator  
Two types of the RDS data are used to make  
Network-Tracking Reception work correctly —  
PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative  
Frequency).  
Without receiving these data correctly from the  
RDS station you are listening to, Network-  
Tracking Reception will not operate.  
AF indicator  
Note:  
If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception  
(for DAB services) is activated, Network-Tracking  
Reception is also activated (“AF”) automatically. On  
the other hand, Networking-Tracking Reception cannot  
be deactivated without deactivating Alternative  
Reception. (See page 36.)

Using TA Standby Reception  
1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more  
than 2 seconds so that one of the  
PSM items appears on the display.  
(PSM: see page 26.)  
TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch

current source (another FM station, tape or other  
connected components).  
TA Standby Reception will not work if you are listening  
to an AM station.  
2 Select “AF-REG (alternative

Press TP/PTY (T) to activate TA Standby  
Reception.  
7 When the current source is FM, the TP  
indicator either lights up or flashes.  
• If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby  
Reception is activated.

announcement, “TRAFFIC” appears on the  
display, and this unit automatically tunes in  
to the station. The volume changes to the  
preset TA volume level (see page 17) and  
the traffic announcement can be heard.  
• If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby  
Reception is not yet activated since the  
station being received does not provide the

If a station starts broadcasting the  
selected PTY programme, this unit  
automatically tunes in to the station.  
• If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY  
Standby Reception is not yet activated  
since the station being received does  
not provide the signals used for PTY  
Standby Reception.  
1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more

another frequency broadcasting the same  
programme as the original preset station is  
broadcasting. (Programme search)

DAB TUNER OPERATIONS  
TAPE  
We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio  
Tuning in to an ensemble and  
one of the services  
Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 with your unit.  
If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC  
IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.  
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with your  
DAB tuner.  
A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes  
(services) broadcast at the same time. After tuning  
in to an ensemble, you can select a service you  
want to listen to.  
What is DAB system?  
DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting  
systems available today. It can deliver CD  
quality sound without any annoying  
interference and signal distortion.  
Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and  
data.  
In contrast to FM broadcast, where each  
programme is transmitted on its own  
frequency, DAB combines several  
programmes (called “services”) to form one  
“ensemble.”  
Before you start....  
Press DAB (FM/AM) briefly if tape, CD changer or  
external component is the current source.  
1 Select the DAB tuner.  
Each time you press and  
hold the button, the DAB  
tuner and the FM/AM tuner  
are alternately selected.

DAB3). You can use any one of them to tune in to  
an ensemble.
