Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the JVC Compact Component System.
We hope it will be a valued addition to your home, giving you years of enjoyment.
Be sure to read this instruction manual carefully before operating your new stereo system.
In it you will find all the information you need to set up and use the system.
If you have a query that is not answered by the manual, please contact your dealer.
Features
Here are some of the things that make your System both powerful and simple to use.
t Types of CD you can play
Many types of compact discs are sold for a variety of uses. The Video CD Player can play the following compact discs.
· Video CD without Playback Control function: for audio and video (moving picture) reproduction.
· Video CD with Playback Control function: featuring menu-type operation and super-fine still pictures for audio
and video (moving picture) reproduction.
· CD Graphics (CD-G): for audio and video (still picture) reproduction.
· Digital Audio CD, including 8-cm(3")CDs: for audio reproduction.
· CDs you cannot play: Do not play SVCDs, DVDs and CD-ROMs on this System. Playing CD-ROMs may generate
a noise which can damage your speakers.
t JVC's COMPU PLAY feature that, with a single touch, automatically starts playing the Radio or CD
Player.
t The System incorporates Active Hyper Bass PRO circuitry to faithfully reproduce low frequency
sounds.
t A 45-station preset capability (30 FM and 15 AM ) in addition to auto-seek and manual tuning.
t CD options that include repeat, random and program play.
t Timer functions; Daily Timer and Sleep Timer.
t You can connect various external units, such as an MD recorder.
How This Manual Is Organized
· Basic information that is the same for many different functions - e.g. setting the volume - is given in the section
`Basic Operations', and not repeated under each function.
· The names of buttons/controls and display messages are written in all capital letters: e.g. FM/AM, "NO DISC".
· System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play.
Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require.
We have enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.
WARNINGS
· DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON THE TOP COVER. IF THE SYSTEM IS OPERATED WITH SOMETHING
PUT ON THE TOP COVER, IT WILL BE DAMAGED WHEN YOU TRY TO OPEN THE TOP COVER.
· NEVER REMOVE THE TOP COVER FROM THE UNIT. SERIOUS INJURY MAY OCCUR IF THE SYS-
TEM IS OPERATED WITHOUT THE TOP COVER.
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS
1 Installation of the System
· Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. (Between 5°C and 35°C or 41°F and 95°F.)
· Leave sufficient distance between the System and a TV.
· Do not use the System in a place subject to vibrations.
2 Power cord
· Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!
· Some power is always consumed as long as the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.
· When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord.
3 Malfunctions, etc.
· There are no user serviceable parts inside. In case of system failure, unplug the power cord and consult your dealer.
· Do not insert any metallic object into the System.
· Do not insert your hand between the Top Cover and the main body when the Top Cover is being closed.
