INTRODUCTION  
Precautions  
About this manual  
This manual covers the operating instructions for the compact disc  
player XL-Z132BK and XL-Z232BK.  
There are several functions which require separate instructions for  
eachmodel. Pleasecheckthemodelnumberstatedonthecartonbox,  
and follow the descriptions applicable to your unit.  
Load compact disc only  
Never insert anything other than a compact disc into any part of the  
player.  
If a problem persists  
If something goes wrong, turn off the power immediately. If the same  
problem reoccurs when the power is turned on once more, turn off the  
power again and consult your JVC dealer.  
This manual is organized as follows:  
The first part, “INTRODUCTION”, gives you the precautions when  
using this unit, and shows you the names of buttons on the main unit  
and the remote control unit.  
Handling the power cord  
When unplugging from the wall socket, always pull the plug body,  
never the power cable.  
The second part, “BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME”, tells you  
what kind of operations you should do before playing a disc. This part  
describes where to place the unit for best results, how to install  
batteries in the remote control unit and how to connect this unit to the  
amplifier/receiver and other components.  
Volume settings  
A CD player has almost zero background noise. Because of this, the  
technique of listening to the background level and then setting the  
volume before the music starts, as used with analog turntables or tape  
decks, cannot be used. If you raise the volume level too high, speaker  
damage may result.  
The third part, “BASIC OPERATIONS”, describes how to load a disc,  
and convenient basic functions for playing disc.  
Condensation  
The CD player uses optical components. If it is moved from a cold  
location to a warm one, or is used in a room subject to excessive  
humidity or where a fire has just been lit, condensation could form on  
the optical components.  
This may prevent the laser beam from being properly transmitted and  
thus causes noise or even a malfunction.  
If condensation has formed and the CD player does not function  
correctly, we recommend that you leave it turned on for an hour or two.  
If at the end of this time the CD player still does not function properly,  
please consult your JVC dealer.  
The fourth part, “VARIOUS PLAYBACK PATTERNS”, describes vari-  
ous functions for playing disc, and convenient functions for recording.  
The fifth part, “GENERAL INFORMATIONS”, describes the COMPU  
LINK remote control system which facilitates various operations be-  
tween JVC components, and explains how to take care of discs.  
This part also includes “Troubleshooting” which tells you how to check  
the unit when a malfunction occurs, and the technical informations  
regarding this unit.  
Transporting the unit  
When carrying this unit, it is best to avoid either tilting it or turning it  
upside-down. Where you cannot avoid doing so, please remove the  
disc first.  
Using compact discs  
Compact discs are made of plastic and can be easily damaged. If the  
disc is dirty, scratched, warped or otherwise damaged, the digital  
information may not be picked up correctly.  
Applicable discs  
This unit can only be used with compact discs bearing the mark below.  
Never use discs of other types.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME  
COMPU LINK connection  
Installing the batteries  
(XL-Z232BK Only)  
JVC’s COMPU LINK Remote Control System provides unified control  
over system components connected with COMPU LINK. Connecting  
JVC audio components with the COMPU LINK jacks automatically  
controls relative operations between components and facilitates vari-  
ous operations. With the COMPU LINK connection to an amplifier or  
receiver, you can operate XL-Z132BK/XL-Z232BK with the amplifier or  
receiver’s remote control unit. Synchronized recording is also avail-  
able with this feature.  
To install the batteries in the remote  
control unit  
Before operating the remote control unit, install two batteries.  
1. Remove the rear cover of the remote control unit by pressing  
down and simultaneously pulling it backwards.  
Connecting the COMPU LINK cord  
The COMPU LINK-3 SYNCHRO jacks are used to output and input the  
control signal for the COMPU LINK remote control system.  
COMPULINK-compatibleproductsareprovidedwiththejacksmarked  
COMPU LINK-1, COMPU LINK-2 or COMPU LINK-3, referring to the  
COMPU LINK version. XL-Z132BK/XL-Z232BK is equipped with  
COMPU LINK-3. You can connect XL-Z132BK/XL-Z232BK also to a  
component with a lower COMPU LINK versions. But, in that case, only  
the lower versions’ features will be available.  
PlugthesuppliedCOMPULINKcordintotheCOMPULINK-3SYNCHRO  
jack on the rear panel of XL-Z132BK/XL-Z232BK. Plug the other end  
into the COMPU LINK jack of the other component. If there are two  
COMPU LINK jacks, plug it into either of them.  
2. Install batteries. Be sure that the batteries are installed with  
correct polarity, (+) and (–).

Install batteries observing the correct polarity, (+) and (–).  
Do not use new and old batteries simultaneously.  
Batteries with similar shapes may have different voltage ratings. Be  
sure to use the correct batteries.  
÷
÷
Remove batteries from the remote control unit if it will not be used  
for a long period of time.  
Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.  
Battery replacement  
Service life of batteries depends on the condition of use; standard life  
is about one year. When the batteries become weak, the operating  
distance of the remote control unit becomes short . If this happens,  
replace the batteries R03(UM-4)/AAA(24F) with new ones.  
Note

Care and handling  
Maintenance of discs  
How to handle CDs  
When there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe the  
disc with a soft, dry cloth with a movement going from the inside  
outwards.  
If difficult to clean, wipe the disc with a cloth moistened with water.  
Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.  
When handling compact discs, do not touch the surface of the disc (re-  
flective silver side - the side without the label).  
Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If  
the disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the sound will not be  
picked up correctly and, in addition, such discs may cause the CD  
player to malfunction.  
Even on label side  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on  
this surface.  
Storage  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled one on  
top of another without their protective cases, they can be damaged.  
Do not put discs in any location where they can be exposed to direct  
sunlight - or in any place where humidity or temperature is high. Avoid  
leaving discs in your car!
