1. PRECAUTIONS  
Installation and handling precautions  
(1) Opening the transport lock  
(7) Installation environment  
• Make sure that the transport lock is released and all trans-  
port protective materials are removed before turning on the  
power. Failure to do so will result in equipment malfunction.  
• This equipment has been designed with consideration for  
dust protection, but its structure is not dust-proof. There-  
fore, if it is used in an environment where cigarette smoke  
and/or dust are present, the lens of the drive or a disc will  
become dirty and stop functioning correctly.Using the equip-  
ment in these conditions should be avoided.If, however, you  
have to use it in a dusty environment, make sure to carry  
out ‘maintenance & regular inspectionat an earlier interval.  
• If the equipment is used outside of the suitable temperature  
and humidity range, the drive life may become greatly short-  
ened. Please make sure to use the equipment in an appro-  
priate environment.  
(2) Location of installation  
• Do not install the equipment near a source of vibration such  
as motor, engine or loudspeaker. They may adversely af-  
fect the equipment performance.  
• Do not install the equipment in a place that is exposed to  
radiation, X-rays or corrosive gases.This may cause a mal-  
function or failure of the equipment.  
• If the equipment is to have a fixed installation, we advise  
you to give sufficient allowance for space so that extension  
and replacement of optional units and other operations such  
as replacement and maintenance can be easily performed.  
For details, please consult your dealer or nearest JVC-au-  
thorized service agent.  
(8) Backup  
• JVC cannot accept responsibility for any loss of data and/or  
any other direct and indirect damage caused by the use or  
malfunctioning of this equipment.We therefore strongly ad-  
vise that all important data should be fully backed up in case  
of unexpected loss.  
(3) Condensation  
• If the equipment which has been left in a cold room for a  
long period of time and is moved to a warm room or if the  
temperature of the room suddenly increases, condensation  
may occur on a mobile part, optical pickup or a disc inside  
the equipment with a disabling effect. If this occurs, do not  
use the equipment for a few hours before starting it again.  
• When this equipment is used with a system which runs con-  
tinually for 24 hours or which cannot be turned off at all, we  
recommend a redundancy design such as [a] back-up sys-  
tem on the system.  
(9) Never take the equipment apart.  
• Fire and electric shock may result. Do not try to take apart  
or modify this equipment or the drive units inside.  
(4) Interference with reception of other devices  
• When this equipment is used near a radio receiver such as  
a radio, television or BS tuner, reception of radio waves on  
these these devices may experience interference.  
(10) Cleaning  
• Do not use solvents (paint thinner, benzene, etc.), cleaning  
products containing abrasives, anti-static agent, cloth soaked  
in detergent and silicon cloth. They can cause discolora-  
tion.  
(5) Use in a strong radio wave environment  
The equipment may not function properly if it is used in a  
strong radio wave environment, for example near an illegal  
radio station or a broadcasting station. If this happens, please  
consult your dealer or nearest JVC-authorized service agent.  
• Wipe-clean using a well-squeezed cloth which has been  
soaked in a neutral detergent.  
(11) Do not place anything on the top panel.  
• Do not place any objects on or step onto the top panel of  
this equipment as a malfunction or accident may result.  
(6) Compatible media  
Media compatible with the MC-8200U/8600U varies depend-  
ing on the drive in which it is accommodated. For details,  
refer to the instruction manual of the relevant drive.  
Disc handling precautions  
(3) Do not use chemicals for disc cleaning.  
• Never use any solvents other than those included in the  
cleaning kits.  
• Never use analogue record cleaning fluid, benzene, alcohol  
or anti-static agent.  
A disc is made of plastic material which can be easily dam-  
aged. If the discs are damaged or become dirty, it may lead to  
malfunction such as incorrect data readout.To prevent this han-  
dle the discs with care so that they will stay free of damage,  
stain, dust/dirt adhesion, warping, etc.  
(4) Do not damage the label surface  
• Damage to the label surface also affects the data surface  
immediately underneath it.  
• Do not attach pieces of paper or adhesive tape to either  
side of the disc.  
• When you need to write on the label surface, please use a  
permanent ink felt-tip pen.  
Writing implements with hard tips such as ball-point pens  
and pencils should not be used as they will damage the  
surface.  
(1) Do not touch the reflective surface (data surface) of a  
disc directly with your hand. Be sure to use special  
care when handling double-sided discs.  
(2) Use commercially available cleaning kits such as a CD  
cleaner to remove dust and/or dirt from the disc sur-  
face.  
• Gently wipe-clean the disc surface without scratching it.  
(Make sure to wipe from the centre of the disc towards the  
outer edge. Never use a circular motion.)  
(5) Periodical cleaning of the discs is recommended.  
• Periodical disc cleaning may be required depending on the  
equipment installation environment and disc handling  
method.  
* Always from the centre to outer edge

2-3. Magazine numbers, tray numbers, disc numbers  
The internal layout of the magazine and the numbers assigned to the magazines, trays and discs are as shown below.  
Magazine number...... This is the number assigned to each of the 4 or 12 sets of magazines. The error message dis-  
played when a magazine is inserted incompletely refers to the magazine number. (See page E27)  
Note, magazine number assignments are different from previous models (MC-1000, MC-2000 and  
MC-7000 Series).  
Tray number............... This is the 2-digit number assigned to each of the 50 trays in each magazine.The combination of a  
tray number and magazine number corresponds to a disc number. For example, disc number 120  
can also be represented as the disc in tray number 20 of magazine number 3. In this way, the disc  
can be located in the 20th slot from the bottom of magazine 3.  
Disc number .............. This is the 3-digit number assigned serially to every disc in all magazines and trays, starting from  
disc number 1 in tray 01 of magazine 1 up to disc number 200 or 600.The error messages usually  
refer to the disc numbers. (See page E30)

When a tray is transported to the mail slot under the con-  
trol of the host computer or the import/export operation  
(
P. E20), the mail slot opens automatically when trans-  
a
portation has been completed.  
CAUTION  
• A DVD-RAM disc may become impossible to write/read  
due to dust, fingerprints, scratches, etc. adhering to  
the disc surface. Please handle it carefully.  
Take special care in handling the DVD-RAM/R discs  
because they are extremely vulnerable to scratches  
and contamination.  
1. Place a disc gently on the tray with a label surface fac-  
ing upwards.  
(To remove a disc from the tray, hold the disc by the  
center hole and the outer edge which is accessible near  
the notched section on the front side of the tray.)  
CAUTION  
Media compatible with the MC-8200LU/8600LU varies  
depending on the installed drive types. For details, refer  
to the instruction manuals of the drives.

9-2. Loading/replacing the discs  
CAUTION  
• When loading discs directly into the magazine trays without using the mail slot, be careful not to damage the magazines  
and trays.  
• A disc may become impossible to write/read due to dust, fingerprints, scratches, etc. adhering to the disc surface.  
Please handle it carefully.  
Take special care in handling the DVD-RAM discs because they are extremely vulnerable to scratches and contamination.  
• Media compatible with the MC-8200LU/8600LU varies depending on the drive configuration. For details, refer to the instruc-  
tion manuals of the drives.  
When using double-sided discs, handle them with special care because they do not have a label on the surface.  
• Never use a damaged and/or warped disc or a disc with an attached label. It will lead to a malfunction of the equipment.  
• If you are going to use a disc which has been used with this equipment from a different drive, please check the drive  
specifications carefully before using it.  
(Some drives may not be able to read the disc.)  
(At the same time, the equipment may not be able to read the disc which has been written and deleted in a different drive.)  
• Note that some double-sided discs do not provide a distinction between the top and bottom sides. Take special care when  
removing/loading these discs from/in the MC-8200LU/8600LU.  
CAUTION  
1. Eject a magazine. ( See “9-1. Ejecting/loading the  
a
magazines” on page E27.)  
(1) Place the disc correctly on the disc tray so that it does  
stay in the guide section of the disc tray.  
2. Unlock the tray lock corresponding to the tray to be used.  
(
See “2-3. Magazine numbers, tray numbers, disc  
a
numbers” on page 8.)  
(2) To prevent projection of a tray or incomplete locking  
of the tray lock, align the edges of all the trays in the  
magazine by slightly pushing them inward from the  
top to the bottom with you finger.  
3. Pull out the tray.  
4. Place the disc on the tray.  
Label surface
