Preparing the remote controller
Insert again the battery holder by pushing it
until you hear a clicking sound.
Before using the remote controller:
• Aim the remote controller directly at the remote
sensor on the main unit. Make sure there is no
obstacle in between.
(back side)
WARNING:
Remote sensor
• Store the battery in a place where children
cannot reach.
If a child accidentally swallows the battery,
consult a doctor immediately.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to strong
light (direct sunlight or artificial lighting).
• Do not recharge, short, disassemble, or heat the
battery or dispose of it in a fire.
Doing any of these things may cause the battery
to give off heat, crack, or start a fire.
• Do not leave the battery with other metallic
materials.
Installing the battery
When the controllable range or effectiveness of
the remote controller decreases, replace the
battery.
Doing this may cause the battery to give off
heat, crack, or start a fire.
• When throwing away or saving the battery,
wrap it in tape and insulate; otherwise, the
battery may start to give off heat, crack, or start
a fire.
1. Remove the battery holder.
1) Push out the battery holder in the direction
indicated by the arrow using a ball-point
pen or a similar tool.
2) Remove the battery holder.
• Do not poke the battery with tweezers or similar
tools.
Doing this may cause the battery to give off
heat, crack, or start a fire.
(back side)
CAUTION:
DO NOT leave the remote controller in a place
(such as dashboards) exposed to direct sunlight
for a long time. Otherwise, it may be damaged.
2. Place the battery.
Slide the battery into the holder with the +

MP3/WMA INTRODUCTION
What are MP3/WMA?
How are MP3/WMA files
recorded and played back?
MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts
Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a
file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10
(128 Kbps*).
MP3/WMA “files (tracks)” can be recorded in
“folders” —in PC terminology.
During recording, the files and folders can be
arranged in a way similar to arranging files and
folders of computer data.
“Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file
and folder can be linked to and be accessed
from the root.
WMA (Windows Media® Audio) is the digital
audio compression format developed by
Microsoft Corporation.
* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one
second of audio data will consume. The unit used is
Kbps. To get a better audio quality, choose a higher
bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding is
128 Kbps.
The illustration below shows an example of how
MP3/WMA files are recorded on a CD-R or
CD-RW, how they are played back, and how they
are searched for on this unit.
• For details information about the MP3/WMA
discs, refer to “A Guide to MP3/WMA”
(separate volume).
Notes:

CD CHANGER OPERATIONS
This section is only for KD-AR800/KD-G800.
Playing discs
We recommend that you use the JVC MP3-
compatible CD changer with your unit.
Select the CD changer (CD-CH).
By using this CD changer, you can play back your
original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs
(Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format
or in MP3 format.
(For KD-AR800)
CD
CD-CH
• You can also connect other CH-X series CD
changers (except CH-X99 and CH-X100).
However, they are not compatible with MP3
discs, so you cannot play back MP3 discs.
• You cannot use the KD-MK series CD changers
with this unit.
(For KD-G800)
* For CD changer setting, see “To select the external
component to use—EXTERNAL IN” on page 30 for
details.
Before operating your CD changer:
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for
your CD changer.
• If no discs are in the magazine of the CD
changer or the discs are inserted upside
down, “NO DISC” will appear on the display.
If this happens, remove the magazine and
set the discs correctly.
• When the current disc is an MP3 disc:
Playback starts from the first folder of the
current disc once file check is completed.
•
If no magazine is loaded in the CD changer, “NO
MAG” appears on the display. If this happens,
insert the magazine in the CD changer.
Selected disc number*
• If “RESET 1” – “RESET 8” appears on the
display, something is wrong with the
connection between this unit and the CD
changer. If this happens, check the
connection and make sure the cords are
connected firmly. Then, press the reset
button of the CD changer.

MAINTENANCE
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
Handling discs
Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read
their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, and for the following reasons:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs,
CD-Rs (Recordable), CD-RWs (Rewritable), and
CD Texts.
• This unit is also compatible with MP3 and
WMA discs.
– Moisture condensation on the lens inside the
unit.
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than
that of regular CDs.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high
temperatures or high humidity, so do not leave
them inside your car.
• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
How to handle discs
Center holder
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.
• 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.
– 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. For example,
– Stickers or labels may shrink and warp a
disc.
To keep discs clean
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.
– Stickers or labels may be peeled off so discs
cannot be ejected.
– Print on discs may get sticky.
Read instructions or cautions about labels and
printable discs carefully.
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.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8 cm (3-3/16") discs (single CDs)
into the loading slot. (Such discs cannot be
ejected.)
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a
heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a
malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any
heat source or place them in a place subject to
high temperature and humidity. Do not leave
them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
CD player in the following cases:
• 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.
