Getting Started  
This section explains how to connect stereo components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect  
the power supply.  
Before Installation  
General  
Be sure your hands are dry.  
Turn the power off to all components.  
Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to connect.  
Locations  
Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from moisture.  
The temperature around the receiver must be between 23˚ and 95˚ F  
(–5˚ and 35˚ C).  
Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor ventilation could cause  
overheating and damage the receiver.  
Handling the receiver  
Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.  
Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.  
Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

Notes:  
Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have  
been made.  
When the power cord is connected, the STANDBY lamp above the POWER button  
lights up.  
A small amount of power is  
always consumed even in  
standby mode. To switch off the  
power completely, unplug the  
power cord from the AC outlet.  
If the power cord is unplugged  
(or a power failure occurs),  
preset settings will be erased in  
a few days.  
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables for the TV, VCR, and antenna.  
The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. We recommend that you use a  
coaxial cable to connect the antenna, since it is well-shielded against interference.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Do not touch the power cord  
with wet hands.  
• Do not pull on the power cord  
to unplug the receiver. When  
unplugging the receiver, always  
grasp the plug itself so as not  
to damage the cord.  
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control  
Before using the remote control, put the two supplied batteries in first. When using the  
remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.  
1. On the back of the remote control, remove the battery cover as illustrated.  
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to observe the proper polarity: (+) to (+) and (–)  
CAUTIONS:  
to (–).  
3. Replace the cover.  
Follow these precautions to avoid  
leaking or cracking cells:  
• Place batteries in the remote  
control so they match the  
polarity indicated: (+) to (+) and  
(–) to (–).  
• Use the correct type of batteries.  
Batteries that look similar may  
differ in voltage.  
R6P (SUM-3)/AA (15F)  
-
+
+
-
• Always replace both batteries at  
the same time.  
• Do not expose batteries to heat  
or flame.  
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use  
two R6P (SUM-3)/AA (15F) type dry-cell batteries.

Using the Surround Processor  
The built-in surround processor provides three groups of Surround Processor modes — JVC 3D-PHONIC  
mode, DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) mode, and surround modes (Dolby Surround and JVC Theater  
Surround).  
On JVC 3D-PHONIC mode  
JVC 3D-PHONIC mode gives you such a  
nearly surround effect as it is reproduced  
through the Dolby Surround decoder, which  
is widely used to reproduce sounds with a  
feeling of movement like those experienced  
in movie theaters. JVC 3D-PHONIC mode is  
the result of research on sound localization  
technology carried out at JVC for many  
years and makes it possible to reproduce the  
surround sound with only two front  
speakers.  
Notes:  
• The surround processor has no  
effect on monaural sources.  
• The surround processor cannot  
be used for recording.  
You cannot use the two types  
of the surround processor mode  
at the same time.  
• When you select “DVD MULTI”  
as the source to play, you  
cannot select or adjust 3D-  
PHONIC, DAP or surround  
modes.  
On the DAP mode  
The sound heard in a concert hall or club  
consists of direct sound and indirect sound  
— early reflections and reflections from  
behind. Direct sounds reach the listener  
directly without any reflection. On the other  
hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the  
distances of the ceiling and walls. These  
direct sounds and indirect sounds are the  
most important elements of the acoustic  
surround effects. The DAP mode can create  
these important elements, and gives you a  
real “being there” feeling by using the front  
speakers and rear speakers.

Using the DAP Modes  
You can use five DAP modes — “Dance Club, Live Club, Hall, Pavilion, and  
Headphones.” These modes (except “Headphones”) require the front speakers and the  
rear speakers, but do not require a center speaker to enlarge the sound field.  
Among the DAP modes, “Headphones” is very special. It can create the same stereo  
sound as you listen through the speakers off air while listening to a source using  
headphones. So, you can feel as if you were not using the headphones and listening to  
music in a room.

automatically.  
If the previously selected source is “DVD” or “DVD MULTI,” the TV and DVD  
player will turn on automatically.  
Note:
