Introduction
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.
Before operating this compact component system, read this manual
carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance
from your system, and retain this manual for future reference.
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
•The manual mainly explains operations using the buttons
and controls on the units. You can also use the buttons
on the remote control if they have the same or similar
names (or marks) as those on the units.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using each unit, it is then explained.
• Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the
information about turning on/off the system, setting the
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which
are explained in the section "Basic Settings" and
"Common Operations" on pages 10 to 13.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to
prevent from a damage or risk of fire/
electric shock.
Also gives you information which is not
good for obtaining the best possible
performance from the units.
Gives you information and hints you hadbetter know.
Precautions
Installation
•Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot
nor too cold -- between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
• Install the units in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup in the units.
• Leave sufficient distance between the units and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
DO NOT install the units in a location near heatsources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or vibration.
Powersources
•When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug, not the AC power cord.
_4_DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wethands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the units in the
following cases:
• After starting heating in the room
• In a damp room
• If the units are brought directly from a cold to a warm
place
Should this occur, the system may malfunction. In this case,
leave the units turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in
again.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into a unit, unplug
the units and consult your dealer before operating any
further.
• If you are not going to operate the units for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall
outlet.
DO NOT disassemble the units since there are
no user serviceable parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.

If Daily Timer is set to come on while Recording Timer
is operating, Daily Timer will not come on at all.

If Recording Timer is set to come on while Sleep Timer

closed when not in use.
Handling CDs
c00° ;} •
DIGITAL AUDIO
×@
×@
Only CDs bearing this mark can be
used with this system. However,
continued use of irregular shape
CDs (e.g. heart shape, octagonal)
can damage the system.
Remove the CD from its case by
holding it at the edge while
pressing the center hole lightly.
Do not touch the shiny surface of
the disc, or bend the CD.
Put the CD back in its case after
use to prevent warping.
•Be careful not to scratch the
surface of the CD when placing it
back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,
temperature extremes, and
moisture.
To clean the CD
Wipe the CD with a soft cloth in a
straight line from center to edge.
DO NOT use any solvent -- such as conventionalrecord cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine -- to
clean the CD.

Handling Cassette Tapes
Cautions regarding handling
•Do not touch the surface of the tape or pull the tape out
of the cassette.
• Tape spooled loosely around the hubs is likely to jam in
the pinch rollers and capstans. Before loading the tape
into the cassette tray, take up the slack in the tape as shown
below.
TypesofCassetteTapes
This cassette deck unit incorporates an Automatic Tape
Detection function. This mechanism uses the tape-type
detection holes to distinguishes which type of tape was
inserted, and sets the bias and equalizer to the optimum
settings for that tape automatically.
The following types of tapes may be used with this cassette
deck unit.
Tapestorage
• Place tapes in their cases for storage.
• Avoid storing tapes on top of TVs or speakers, in sunlight
or places of high temperature, or in humid or dusty areas.
