Introduction

Notes on handling

Important cautions

Safety precautions

Installation of the unit

Avoid moisture, water and dust

• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot

nor too cold (between 5˚C and 35˚C, 41˚F and 95˚F).

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

• Do not use the player in a place subject to vibrations.

Do not place the unit in moist or dusty places.

Avoid high temperatures

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it

near a heating device.

Power cord

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

• A small amount of power (3.0 watts) is always

consumed while the power cord is connected to the

wall outlet.

When you’re away

When away on travel or otherwise for an extended

period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet.

• When unplugging the player from the wall outlet,

always pull the plug, not the power cord.

Do not insert foreign objects into the unit

Do not insert wires, hairpins, coins, etc. into the unit.

To prevent malfunction of the unit

Do not block the vents

• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If

anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and

consult your dealer.

• Do not insert any metallic object into the unit.

• Do not use any non-standard shape disc available on

the market, because it may damage the unit.

• Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it,

because damage to the unit may result.

Blocking the vents may damage the unit.

Care of the cabinet

When cleaning the unit, use a soft cloth and follow the

relevant instructions on the use of chemically-coated

cloths. Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic

solvents and disinfectants. These may cause

deformation or discoloring.

Note about copyright laws

If water gets inside the unit

• Please check the copyright laws in your country

before recording from DVD VIDEO, Audio CD, and

Video CD discs. Recording of copyrighted material

may infringe copyright laws.

Turn off the power switch and remove the plug from

the wall outlet, then call the store where you made

your purchase. Using the unit in this state may cause a

fire or electrical shock.

Note about the copyguard system

• The DVD VIDEO disc is protected by the copyguard

system. When you connect the unit to your VCR

directly, the copyguard system activates and the

picture may not be played back correctly.

About discs

Playable disc types

Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:

Playable discs

DVD VIDEO

Video CD

Audio CD

CD-R

CD-RW

The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.

• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with the audio CD format can be played back, though some may not be played

back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.

• DVD VIDEO players and DVD VIDEO discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD

VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers include “1”.

Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

1 2

3 4

ALL

1 2

This unit accommodates the NTSC television system and can playback discs recorded with the NTSC system. Note

that the unit cannot playback discs recorded with the PAL system.

Non-playable discs

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT

• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.

• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.

Disc structure

A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD is comprised of “tracks.” Each title may be

divided into some “chapters.” For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own

title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has

its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in

the same title has continuity.

LVT0435-001A

Getting started

To connect to audio equipment with a digital input

You can enhance the sound quality by connecting the unit’s DIGITAL OUT to the digital input of an amplifier, DAT or

MD by using an optional digital cable (the XV-521BK/523GD/525BK provides both the optical and coaxial jacks while

the XV-421BK only provides the coaxial jack). The digital audio signal from a disc is directly transferred. If you

connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an optional digital

cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.

When you make the digital connection, also make the analog connection, because, depending on the disc type, no

audio may be reproduced from the DIGITAL OUT.

For XV-521BK/523GD/525BK

When using the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack, remove

the protection cap. Do not lose the removed cap.

When the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack is not used, fix

the protection cap into the jack.

NOTES

• The unit does not provide the DTS decoding function.

• When playing a DVD VIDEO or Audio CD disc with DTS,

use a DTS decoder to get correct signals from your

speakers. Never use the unit's analog output jacks, which

output incorrect signals that may damage your speakers.

If you connect the analog outputs and digital outputs

simultaneously, be sure to select the source of the

amplifier correctly, or set the level control of the amplifier

connected to the analog outputs to minimum.

Additional information

AV COMPU LINK remote control system (not available with

XV-421BK)

When you buy a separate TV, VCR, DVD player, receiver, or other component and

connect them to each other, you have to operate each component individually. JVC’s

AV COMPU LINK remote control system meets the demands of a system made up of

single components and has the ease of operation of a single unit.

Connection and setup

Using the AV COMPU LINK cable, connect the AV COMPU LINK terminals of each component to one another.

To AV COMPU LINK (II or EX)

DVD player

• If you connect a DVD player to a television via AV COMPU LINK, set the DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK setting as

follows.

• When connecting to VIDEO-1 input terminal of the television: DVD2

• When connecting to VIDEO-2 input terminal of the television: DVD3

To AV COMPU LINK (II or EX)

To AV COMPU LINK

VCR (Video Cassette Recorder)

DVD player

• If you connect a DVD player to a television and VCR via AV COMPU LINK, set the VCR’s Remote Control Code and

DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK setting as follows.

• When connecting to VIDEO-1 input terminal of the television:

DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK setting: DVD2

VCR’s Remote Control Code: B

• When connecting to VIDEO-2 input terminal of the television:

DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK setting: DVD3

VCR’s Remote Control Code: A

To AV COMPU LINK (II or EX)

Receiver

DVD player

• If you connect a DVD player to a television and receiver via AV COMPU LINK, set the DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK

setting to DVD1.

• The DVD player’s AV COMPU LINK setting is operated in the SYSTEM page of the preference display.

See page 38 for operation.

• For information on the connection between the TV and the Receiver, refer to the Receiver’s Instructions.

IMPORTANT!

If you connect the component video output to your TV:

• make the video/audio connection between the DVD player and your receiver using the supplied audio/video cable,

and do not make the S-VIDEO connection.

XV-521BK [J] EN

LVT0435-001A

Additional information

Notes for connection

•

If you connect a DVD player to a receiver via AV COMPU LINK in a system including a Dolby digital decoder, some

functions may not be performed automatically.

The AV COMPU LINK terminal on some televisions indicates “II.” Do not connect the terminal indicating “II”

with the AV COMPU LINK terminal on a receiver. If connected, the system will not work correctly.

Connect the AUDIO OUT jacks of the DVD player to the audio input jacks of a receiver that indicating “DVD.”

Otherwise, the system will not work correctly.

There may be no description about connections to a DVD player in the instruction manual of a television or VCR.

However a television or VCR with AV COMPU LINK terminals indicating “II” or “EX” can be connected to a DVD

player.

Operation

You can enjoy pictures and/or sound by just putting a source component (which plays back the pictures and/or sound

such as a DVD player or VCR) into play mode. You do not have to operate the TV and receiver including not having to

perform power switching.

Turn on the main power of the television.

Insert a disc into the source component.

Press PLAY of the source component.

The following actions are performed automatically:

• Turning on the power for the television.

• Setting the source of the television to the external input (VIDEO-1 or VIDEO-2).

• Turning on the power for the receiver.

• Setting the source of the receiver to the component which has started playback.

Care and handling of discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc.

Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged.

If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images

and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc

may cause the player to malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases,

they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place

where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc,

wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.

If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water.

Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to

industry standards.)

These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.
