Introduction  
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.  
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to  
obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual  
for future reference.  
Power sources  
• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull  
on the plug, not the AC power cord.  
About This Manual  
This manual is organized as follows:  
• This manual mainly explains operations using the  
buttons on the remote control.  
You can use the buttons both on the remote control and  
on the unit for the same operations if they have the  
same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned  
otherwise.  
• Basic and common information that is the same for many  
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated for  
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the  
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the  
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are  
explained in the section “Basic and Common Operations”  
on pages 9 to 12.  
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet  
hands.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit in the  
following cases:  
• After starting to heat the room.  
• In a damp room.  
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.  
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,  
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture  
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.  
• The following symbols are used in this manual:  
Others  
Gives you warning and caution to prevent  
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.  
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,  
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before  
operating any further.  
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended  
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall  
outlet.  
In addition, we put information here about  
conditions which will prevent getting the best  
possible performance from the unit.  
Gives you information and hints you need to  
know.  
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no  
user serviceable parts inside.  
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and  
consult your dealer.  
Precautions  
Installation  
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor  
too cold—between 5˚C (41˚F) and 35˚C (95˚F).  
• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to  
prevent internal heat buildup.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.  
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference  
with TV.  
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat  
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust or vibration.

Playing Back Discs on the 5-CD Changer  
This unit has been designed to play back the following  
discs—CD, CD-R, and CD-RW.  
Loading Discs  
You can play back the discs containing the tracks in music  
CD format or MP3 files in ISO 9660 format.  
• In this instruction, we call a disc recorded MP3 files “MP3  
disc,” and “file” is also referred to as “track.”  
On the unit ONLY:  
1 Press one of the disc eject buttons (CD10 –  
CD50) for the disc tray you want to load a  
When playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs  
• Before playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions  
or cautions carefully.  
• User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-  
ReWritable) can be played only if they are already  
finalized.”

The unit automatically turns on and the selected disc tray  
comes out.  
CD1  
CD2  
CD3  
CD4  
CD5  
• This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).  
• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.  
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this  
unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain  
on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.  
2 Place a disc correctly on the circle of the disc  
tray, with its label side up.  
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is  
because the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for  
regular discs.  
Notes for MP3 files  
• The player can only recognize files with “MP3” or “mp3”  
as the extensions, which can be in any combination of  
upper and lower case.  
• It is recommended that you record your material at a 44.1  
kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate.  
• Some MP3 files or discs may not be played back because  
of their characteristics or recording conditions.  
• MP3 discs requires a longer readout time than normal discs  
because of the complexity of the group/file configuration.  
• MP3i and MP3 Pro are not available.  
Good  
Not good  
General notes  
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping  
your discs and the mechanism clean.  
• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in  
cabinets or on shelves.  
• Keep the unit’s disc trays closed when not in use.  
• Continued use of irregular shape discs (heart-  
shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.  
• When using a CD single (8 cm), place it on the inner  
circle of the disc tray.  
3 Press the same disc eject button (CD10 –  
CD50) you have pressed in step 1.  
The disc tray closes.  
When loading more than one disc at a time  
Press the disc eject button (CD10 – CD50) for the next tray you  
want to place a disc onto. The first disc tray automatically closes and  
the next disc tray comes out.

• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on  
shelves.  
• Put the disc back in its case after use  
to prevent warping.  
Cleaning the unit  
• Be careful not to scratch the surface  
of the disc when placing it back in  
its case.  
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,  
temperature extremes, and moisture.  
• Stains on the unit  
Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is heavily  
stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral  
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.  
• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become  
damaged or have its paint peel off, be careful about the  
following:  
To clean the disc  
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a  
straight line from center to edge.  
– DO NOT wipe it with a rough cloth.  
– DO NOT wipe it too vigorously.  
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.  
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as an  
insecticide to it.  
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact  
with it for a long time.  
DO NOT use any solvent—such as conventional  
record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine—to clean  
the disc.
