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 from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug, not the AC power cord.
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
• The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using the unit, it is then explained.
• Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in
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 “Common Operations” on pages 9
to 12.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the
following cases:
• After heating starts in 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, and then plug it in again.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
Internal heat
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent
from damage or risk of fire/electric shock.
Also gives you information which is not good
for obtaining the best possible performance
from the unit.
A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel to prevent heat
buildup inside the unit.
For safety, observe the following carefully:
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the
unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage
the unit.
• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the ventilation
openings or holes. If they are blocked by a
newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be
able to get out.
Gives you information and hints you had better
know.
Precautions
Installation
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5˚C and 35˚C.
• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup in the unit.
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit 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.
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no
user serviceable parts inside.
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or vibration.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.

For better reception of both FM and AM
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals
and connecting cords.
• Keep the antennas away from metallic parts of the unit, connecting
cords, and the AC power cord.
• DO NOT connect more than one speaker to each
speaker terminal.
• DO NOT push or pull the speakers as this will
damage the foot spacers at the bottom of the

material without the consent of the copyright owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not
affected by the VOLUME, the SUBWOOFER LEVEL, and
the SOUND MODE controls, or the SOUND TURBO button.
Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are
actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
• If there are excessive noise or static in the recording you
have made, the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the
distance between the TV and the unit.

Maintenance
To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs, tapes, and mechanism clean.
Handling cassette tapes
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your discs and the mechanism clean.
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take
up the slack by inserting a pencil in one
of the reels and rotating.
• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched,
cut, or caught in the cassette.
• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on
shelves.
• Keep the unit’s disc trays closed when not in use.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
Handling discs
• Remove the disc from its case by
holding it at the edge while pressing
the center hole lightly.
• Avoid the following places to store the
tape:
— In dusty places
— In direct sunlight or heat
— In moist areas
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the
disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use
to prevent warping.
— Near a magnet
• 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.
Cleaning the unit
• 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.
To clean the disc
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a
straight line from center to edge.
• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:
— DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
— DO NOT wipe it strong.
— DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
— DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
— DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in
contact with it for a long time.
Continued use of irregular shape discs
(heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can
damage the unit.
DO NOT use any solvent—such as conventional
record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine—to clean
the disc.
