Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the JVC Micro
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.
Precautions
Installation
· Install in a place which is level, dry and neither
too hot nor too cold--between 5°C and 35°C.
· Install the System in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup
inside the System.
DO NOT install the System in a location
near heat sources, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
· Leave sufficient distance between the System
and the TV.
· Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid
interference with TV.
Power sources
· When unplugging the System from the wall
outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC
power cord.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with
wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the
System in the following cases:
· After starting to heat the room
· In a damp room
· If the System is brought directly from a cold to
a warm place
Should this occur, the System may malfunction.
In this case, leave the System turned on for a
few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug
the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
Internal heat
· A cooling fan is mounted on the right side
of the unit to prevent heat buildup inside the
main unit (see page G-1).
For safety, observe the following carefully:
· Make sure there is good ventilation the
main unit. Poor ventilation could overheat
and damage the System.
· DO NOT block the cooling fan and the
ventilation openings or holes. If they are
blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc.,
the heat may not be able to get out.
