FEATURES
The KV-RA2, when used with a JVC CD changer and VCR, provides high quality and high-
powered sound from your existing receiver.
INFORMATION (For U.S.A.)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Thank you for purchasing this JVC product. Please read these instructions carefully before
starting operation to obtain optimum performance and a longer service life from the unit.
BEFORE USE
* For safety....
· 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.
* Temperature inside the car....
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.
