Introduction  
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.  
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to  
obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual  
for future reference.  
Power sources  
• When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the  
plug, not the AC power cord.  
About This Manual  
This manual is organized as follows:  
The manual mainly explains operations using the  
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the  
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or  
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.  
If operation using the remote control is different from  
that using the 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 unit, setting the  
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are  
explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9  
to 11.  
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet  
hands.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the  
following cases:  
• After starting heating in the room  
• In a damp room  
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place  
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,  
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture  
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in  
again.  
• The following marks are used in this manual:  
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent  
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.  
Also gives you information which is not good  
for obtaining the best possible performance  
from the unit.  
Others  
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,  
unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating  
any further.  
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended  
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall  
outlet.  
Gives you information and hints you had better  
know.  
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no  
user serviceable parts inside.  
Precautions  
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and  
consult your dealer.  
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 unit in a location with adequate ventilation to  
prevent internal heat built-up in the unit.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.  
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference  
with TV.  
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat  
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust or vibration.

Adjusting the Volume  
Reinforcing the Bass Sound  
You can adjust the volume level only while the unit is turned  
on.  
The SUBWOOFER VOLUME control provided for this unit  
can enhance the subwoofer sound if subwoofers are  
connected to the rear of this unit (see page 7).  
This function only affects the playback sound, but does not  
affect your recording.  
Turn the VOLUME control clockwise to  
increase the volume or counterclockwise  
to decrease it.  
• The volume level can be adjusted in 32  
steps (MIN, VOL 1 — VOL 30, and  
MAX).  
Turn the SUBWOOFER VOLUME  
control clockwise to increase the  
subwoofer sound or counterclockwise  
to decrease it.  
• The subwoofer level can be adjusted in  
8 steps (WOOFER 1 — WOOFER 7,  
and MAX).  
When using the remote control, press VOLUME + to increase  
the volume or press VOLUME – to decrease it.  
SUBWOOFER indicator always lights up

connecting or putting on headphones.  
When using the remote control, press SUBWOOFER + to  
increase the subwoofer volume or press SUBWOOFER – to  
decrease it.  
DO NOT turn off (on standby) the unit with the  
volume set to an extremely high level; otherwise, a  
sudden blast of sound can damage your hearing,  
speakers and/or headphones when you turn on the  
unit or start playing any source next time.  
REMEMBER you cannot adjust the volume level  
while the unit is on standby.

Recording  
IMPORTANT:  
Recording a Tape on Deck B  
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted  
material without the consent of the copyright owner.  
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is

SUBWOOFER VOLUME control. Thus, during recording  
you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to  
without affecting the recording level.  
1 Press EJECT 0 for the deck B.  
• While recording, you can hear sound modes through the  
speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded  
without these effects (see page 10).  
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,  
the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance  
between the TV and the unit.  
2 Put in a recordable cassette, with the exposed  
part of the tape down.  
You can use type I and II tapes for recording.

• If the tape direction is not correct, press TAPE 2 3  
twice then 7 to change the tape direction.  
To protect your recording  
Cassettes have two small tabs on  
the back to protect unexpected  
erasure or re-recording.  
To protect your recording,  
remove these tabs.  
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with  
adhesive tape.  
When using type II tape, be careful not to cover the holes  
used to detect the tape type.  
5 Start playing the source — FM, AM*, CD  
player, deck A, or auxiliary equipment  
connected to AUX jacks.

Using the Microphones  
You can enjoy singing along (Karaoke) and microphone  
mixing by using two microphones.  
• The MIC LEVEL control adjustment is valid for both  
microphones connected the MIC 1 and MIC 2 jacks.  
If howling or squealing (feedback) occurs while using  
the microphone(s)  
Take the following actions to prevent these noises.  
• Adjust the MIC LEVEL and VOLUME controls.  
• Avoid pointing the microphone(s) towards the speakers.  
• When two microphones are connected, turn off the On/Off switch  
on the unused microphone.  
IMPORTANT:  
• Always set the MIC LEVEL to MIN when connecting or  
disconnecting the microphone.  
If you use the following sources as the playing source  
for Vocal Masking, you cannot get the satisfactory  
results  
• When you do not use the microphone, keep the  
microphones unconnected.  
• Radio programs — a radio signal is not as reliable as the signals  
coming from a tape or CD.  
• Monaural sources.  
Singing Along  
• Poorly dubbed tapes.  
• Sources recorded with duets, strong echo, a chorus, or only a few  
instruments.

Vocal Masking reduces the lead vocal of the playing source,  
and allows you to replace it by singing into the microphones  
as the music plays.
