Cautions
Power Supply Preparations
Using rechargeable batteries
(supplied)
Be sure to recharge the rechargeable batteries before using them.
Recharging procedure
1 Insert the rechargeable batteries.
Caution:
Do not forcibly open the battery lid too wide.
2 Connect the AC adaptor (supplied).
Recharging will be completed after 10 hours.
3 When recharging is complete, unplug the
AC adaptor from the AC power outlet and
the DC IN jack.
Battery indicator
Using the AC adaptor (supplied)
Connect the AC adaptor.
Refer to "Using rechargeable batteries" for connection instruc-
tions.
Note:
Even if the unit is turned off, small power is consumed as long as
the AC adaptor is connected to the AC power outlet.
Using dry-cell batteries
(not supplied)
After disconnecting the AC adaptor, insert two "AA" (LR6) alka-
line batteries.
The procedure for inserting and removing dry-cell
batteries is identical to that for rechargeable bat-
teries.
AC adaptor
Battery indicator
This indicator flashes on and off when the batteries are almost
out of power. Power will be cut off a short while later.
Tip:
Turning off the Anti-Shock Protection will save the battery power
more or less. For details, see "Anti-shock Protection" on page 6.
Notes:
· Rechargeable batteries have a service life of approximately
300 charge-discharge cycles. If the operating time on one full
charge becomes noticeably shorter than it used to be, the batteries
have reached the end of their service life and should be replaced.
· You can recharge the batteries only when the unit is turned off.
· The AC adaptor and rechargeable batteries may become warm while
recharging is in progress. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
If the battery lid
compartment
comes loose
Slide the lid back into
place horizontally.
Removing batteries
Push up on the battery in
the direction indicated by
the arrow. Then lift it out.
AC power outlet
"HOLD"
When the unit is in Hold mode, "HOLD" lights as follows.
Power on : "HOLD" stays lit.
Power off : "HOLD" lights up for a few seconds when
6 or
FM/AM button is pressed.
To release the function
Set the HOLD switch to OFF position.
Note:
If the HOLD switch is set to the ON position, you cannot turn on
the unit.
This function causes the unit to ignore accidental button presses.
Hold mode prevents the following:
· Powering on the unit accidentally (which can cause the batter-
ies to go dead).
· Play or broadcast reception being cut off unexpectedly.
To use the Hold mode
· To prevent the unit from powering on accidentally, set the
HOLD switch to the ON position, while the unit is turned off.
· To prevent the unit from unexpected operation during play,
set the HOLD switch to the ON position after you starts play-
ing the disc.

Precautions
Before using this unit, be sure to read the applicable items of the
operating instructions and these safety-suggestions carefully.
Afterwards keep them handy for future reference. Take special
care to follow the warnings indicated on the unit itself as well as
in the operating instructions.
Safety
1. Care of AC adaptor

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched
by items placed upon or against them. Never take hold of the
AC adaptor if your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug
when connecting or disconnecting it.
2. Disconnect when not in use
- When not in use, be sure to
disconnect the AC adaptor from the AC power outlet.
3. Batteries
- If the unit is not used for a long period of time or is
used only from an AC power source, remove all the batteries
to prevent potential damage due to battery leakage. Do not
mix (old and new ) batteries or different types of batteries.
Installation
I Environment
1. Condensation
- Moisture may form on the lens in the follow-
ing conditions...
· immediately after a heater has been turned on.

to a warm one. If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not
operate properly. To correct this problem wait about one
hour for the moisture to evaporate.
I Placement
1. Foreign Material
- Care should be taken so that objects do not
fall into and liquids are not spilled into the unit. Do not subject
this unit to excessive smoke, dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.

Cautions
Listening precautions
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discon-
tinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are an open-air type de-
signed to let you hear outside sounds, don't turn up the volume
so high that you can't hear what's around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level"
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BE-
FORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
· Start your volume control at a low setting.
· Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
· Set the dial and leave it there.
Rechargeable batteries
· Only the BN-R1211J battery can be recharged.
· If the power delivered by the batteries lasts for a very short
time after recharging, it means that the batteries' service life is
over. Do not use them any more.
· Recharging already charged batteries will shorten their service
life.
· When recharging batteries for the first time or when they have
not been used for a long period of time, the play time may be
shorter than usual. In a case like this, repeatedly recharge and
discharge the batteries. This will restore them to their regular
state.
· Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of re-
chargeable batteries since this may cause short-circuiting which
is dangerous.
· Do not peel off the plastic covering on the rechargeable batter-
ies. Short-circuiting may occur which is dangerous.
Dry cell batteries / rechargeable
batteries
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed
the following points.
· Align the , and . polarities properly when inserting the bat-
teries.
· Do not mix different types or makers of batteries or old and
new batteries.
· Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a
long period of time.
· Do not throw batteries into a fire, and do not short-circuit, dis-
assemble or subject them to excessive heat.
· Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Carrying dry cell batteries /
rechargeable batteries around
When putting dry cell or rechargeable batteries in a pocket or
bag, ensure that no other metal objects such as a necklace are
placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause short-
circuiting which, in turn, may cause a fire.
When purchasing rechargeable
batteries
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made by JVC
have a construction designed to make it impossible to recharge
ordinary batteries.
To use rechargeable batteries, be absolutely sure to purchase the
rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries designed especially for this unit.
Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
BN-R1211J (set of 2)
