openings must not be blocked or covered.
● Do not block the openings by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.
● Do not place the product in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase or rack unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
6. Wall or Ceiling Mounting
The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling
only as recommended by the manufacturer.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected
to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system
is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article
810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.
INSTALLATION
1. Grounding or Polarization
(A)Your product may be equipped with a polarized
alternating-current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should
still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace
your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
2. Lightning
For added protection for this product during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the product due
to lightning and power-line surges.
(B)Your product may be equipped with a 3-wire
grounding-type plug, a plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a
grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety
feature.
3. Power Lines
If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding-type plug.
An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal.
2. Power Sources
Operate your product only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power
company. If your product is intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions.

NOTES:
● After dubbing, set “S/AV INPUT” back to “OFF”.
● Analog signals can be converted to digital signals
with this procedure.
● It is recommended to use the AC Power Adapter/
Charger as the power supply instead of the
battery pack. (੬ pg. 12)
● It is also possible to dub from another player.
● Depending on the tape source input, images may
appear with horizontal jitter on the player’s LCD
monitor during dubbing. This does not affect the
actual recording.
● When using an i.LINK cable, be sure to use the
optional JVC VC-VDV204U i.LINK cable.
● If the remote control is used when both the player
and recorder are JVC video units, both units will
perform the same operation. To prevent this from
happening, press the buttons on both units.
● It is possible to dub in MPEG2 format from a
D-VHS VCR, if the source tape (D-VHS) has been
originally dubbed from this digital HD player or
digital HD video camera (ex. GR-HD1 or
JY-HD10) in MPEG2 format.
Dubbing To Or From A Video Unit
Equipped With An i.LINK
Connector (Digital Dubbing)
Using an i.LINK cable (optional), it is possible to dub
recorded scenes in DV format from the player onto
another video unit equipped with i.LINK connector.
Since a digital signal is sent, there is little if any
image or sound deterioration.
Images recorded in SD or HD mode can be dubbed
only to a D-VHS VCR with HS mode or digital HD
video camera (ex. GR-HD1 or JY-HD10).
To use this player as a player
1 Make sure all units are turned off.
2 Connect this player to a video unit equipped with
an i.LINK input connector using an i.LINK cable
as shown in the illustration.
3 Set this player’s Playback Mode Switch to

might prevent it from functioning properly. In such cases, first disconnect its power supply unit (battery pack,
AC Power Adapter/Charger, etc.) and wait a few minutes; and then re-connect it and proceed as usual from
the beginning.

Serious malfunctioning
Changes or modifications not approved by JVC
could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. This equipment has been tested and

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,

interference by one or more of the following
measures:
If malfunctioning occurs, stop using the unit
immediately and consult your local JVC dealer.
The player is a microcomputer-controlled device.
External noise and interference (from a TV, a
radio, etc.) might prevent it from functioning
properly. In such cases, first disconnect its power
supply unit (battery pack, AC Power Adapter/
Charger, etc.) and wait a few minutes and then re-
connect it and proceed as usual from the
beginning.
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.
