How to use the MODE button  
If you press MODE, the unit goes into functions mode, then the number buttons and 5/buttons  
work as different function buttons.  
Ex.: When number button 2 works as MO (monaural) button.  
Time countdown indicator  
To use these buttons for original functions again after pressing MODE, wait for 5 seconds  
without pressing any of these buttons until the functions mode is cleared.  
• Pressing MODE again also clears the functions mode.  
BEFORE USE

*Temperature inside the car....  
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will  
block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.  
• Stop the car before performing any complicated  
operations.  
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or  
cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car  
becomes normal before operating the unit.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION  
Playing a CD-R or CD-RW  
Playing an MP3 disc  
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.  
• This unit can play back only the files of the  
same type which is first detected if a disc  
includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3  
files.  
• This unit can play back multi-session discs;  
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped  
while playing.  
• This unit can play back MP3 files with the  
extension code <.mp3> (regardless of the  
letter case—upper/lower).  
• This unit can show the names of albums,  
artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0,  
1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files.  
• This unit can handle only one-byte characters.  
No other characters can be correctly displayed.  
• This unit can play back MP3 files meeting the  
conditions below:  
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on  
this unit because of their disc characteristics,  
and for the following causes:  
– Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps  
– Discs are dirty or scratched.  
– Sampling frequency:  
– Moisture condensation on the lens inside the  
unit.  
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.  
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written  
with “Packet Write” method.  
– There are improper recording conditions  
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions  
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).  
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time  
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than  
that of regular CDs.  
48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1)  
24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2)  
– Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2,  
Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name  
• The maximum number of characters for file/  
folder names vary among the disc format used  
(includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3>).  
– ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters  
– ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters  
– Romeo*: up to 128 (72) characters  
– Joliet*: up to 64 (36) characters  
• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:  
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal  
stuck to the surface.  
– Discs on which labels can be directly printed  
by an ink jet printer.  
Using these discs under high temperatures or  
high humidity may cause malfunctions or  
damage to discs.  
– Windows long file name*: up to 128 (72)  
characters  
* The parenthetic figure is the maximum number of  
characters for file/folder names in case the total  
number of files and folders is 313 or more.  
• This unit can recognize the total of 512 files, of  
200 folder, and of 8 hierarchies.  
• This unit can play back the files recorded in  
VBR (variable bit rate).  
The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy  
in elapsed time display, and do not show the  
actual elapsed time. Especially, after  
performing the search function, this difference  
becomes noticeable.  
• This unit cannot play back the following files:  
– MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO  
formats.  
– MP3 files encoded in an unappropriated  
format.  
– MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2.  
– Files which have the data such as WMA,  
WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

About mistracking:  
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the unit and the disc,  
but will be annoying.  
We recommend that you stop disc play while driving on such rough roads.

MAINTENANCE  
How to clean the connectors  
To keep discs clean  
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the  
connectors.  
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the  
connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened  
with alcohol, being careful not to damage the  
connectors.  
A dirty disc may not be played  
correctly. If a disc does become  
dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a  
straight line from center to edge.  
To play new discs  
New discs may have some rough  
spots around the inner and outer  
edges. If such a disc is used, this  
unit may reject the disc.  
To remove these rough spots, rub  
the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.  
Connector  
CAUTIONS:  
Moisture condensation  
Do not insert the following discs into the loading  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the  
CD player in the following cases:  
slot:  
– 8 cm discs (single CD)  
– Unusual shape—heart, flower, etc.  
• After starting the heater in the car.  
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.  
Should this occur, the CD player may  
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave  
the unit turned on for a few hours until the  
moisture evaporates.  
How to handle discs  
When removing a disc  
from its case, press down  
the center holder of the case  
and lift the disc out, holding  
it by the edges.  
Center holder  
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not  
touch its recording surface.  
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert  
the disc around the center holder (with the  
printed surface facing up).  
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after  
use.  
Do not use the following discs:

• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your  
JVC car audio dealer.  
• It is recommended to connect to the speakers with maximum power of more than 50 W (both at  
the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 to 8 ). If the maximum power is less than  
50 W, change “AMP GAIN” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page
