• 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.

Installation i

Prepare these before installation...

This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground
electrical systems. If your vehicle does not have this system, a
voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at JVC car
audio dealers.

Warnings

• To prevent short circuits:

-Disconnect the battery's negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
-Cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape.

• Be sure to ground this unit to the car's chassis again after installation.

• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating.

• Connect speakers with a maximum power of more than 50 W
(impedance of 4 0 to 8 O). Otherwise, change the <AMP GAIN> setting.

(See "Menu operations” on page 3.)

• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it

Basic operations

General

• If you turn off the power while listening to a track,
playback will start from where it had been stopped
previously next time you turn on the power.

• If no operation is done for about 60 seconds
after pressing MENU button, the operation will be
canceled.

Tuner operations

• During SSM search...

-All previously stored stations are erased and the
stations are stored anew.

-When SSM is over, the station stored in the lowest
preset number will be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously
preset station is erased when a new station is stored
in the same preset number.

Disc/USB operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a "DualDisc" does not comply
with the "Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard.
Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc
on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD
Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable)
in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA formats.

• If you change the source while listening to a disc,
playback stops. Next time you select "CD” as the
playback source, playback will start from where it
had been stopped previously.

• When a disc is inserted upside down, "PLEASE" and
"EJECT" appear alternately on the display. Press ±
to eject the disc.

• If the ejected disc is not removed within

15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into the
loading slot again to protect it from dust. Playback
starts automatically.

• MP3 and WMA "tracks" (words "file" and "track" are
used interchangeably) are recorded in "folders."

• While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or
WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can only play back files of the same type as
those detected first if a disc includes both audio CD
(CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however,
unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on
this unit:

-Discs are dirty or scratched.

-Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens
inside the unit.

-The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

-The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the
"Packet Write” method.

-There are improper recording conditions (missing
data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,
warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since
the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of
regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

-Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck

to the surface.

-Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an
inkjet printer.

Using these discs under high temperature or high
humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the
unit.

Maintenance

How to clean the connectors

Frequent detachment will deteriorate the
connectors.

To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to
damage the connectors.

Connectors

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
unit in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.

• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction.

In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit
turned on for a few hours until the moisture
has evaporated.

How to handle discs
When removing a disc
from its case, press down
the center holder of the case
and lift the disc out, holding
it by the edges.

• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not
touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc in its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).

• Make sure to store discs in cases after use.

Center holder

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play
correctly. If a disc does become
dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth
in a straight line from center to
edge.

• Do not use any solvents (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some
rough spots around the inner
and outer edges. If such a disc
is used, this unit may reject the
disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges
with a pencil or bail-point pen, etc.

Do not use the following discs:

Single CD (8 cm disc)

Warped disc

Sticker and sticker
residue

Stick-on label

Unusual shape

C-thru Disc
(semitransparent
disc)

CM)

Transparent or
semitransparent

More about this unit

Basic operations

General

• If you turn off the power while listening to
a track, playback will start from where it had
been stopped previously next time you turn
on the power.

• If no operation is done for about 60 seconds
after pressing MENU button, the operation will
be canceled.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

-All previously stored stations are erased and
the stations are stored anew.

-When SSM is over, the station stored in the
lowest preset number will be automatically
tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the
previously preset station is erased when

a new station is stored in the same preset
number.

Disc/USB operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a "DualDisc" does not
comply with the "Compact Disc Digital Audio"
standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side
of a DualDisc on this product may not be
recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce
CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-
RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3
and WMA formats.

• If you change the source while listening to a
disc, playback stops. Next time you select "CD"
as the playback source, playback will start
from where it had been stopped previously.

• When a disc is inserted upside down, "PLEASE"
and "EJECT" appear alternately on the display.
Press ± to eject the disc.

• If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into
the loading slot again to protect it from dust.
Playback starts automatically.

• MP3 and WMA "tracks' (words "file” and "track”
are used interchangeably) are recorded in
"folders.”

• While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3
or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent
sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can only play back files of the same
type as those detected first if a disc includes
both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA
files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs;
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped
while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on
this unit because of their disc characteristics,
or for the following reasons:

-Discs are dirty or scratched.

-Moisture condensation has occurred on the
lens inside the unit.

-The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

-The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written
using the "Packet Write” method.

-There are improper recording conditions
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions
(stained, scratched, warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than
that of regular CDs.

ENGLISH | 19

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
-Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal

stuck to the surface.

-Discs on which labels can be directly printed
by an inkjet printer.

Using these discs under high temperature
or high humidity may cause malfunctions or
damage to the unit.
