SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical
equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between
pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and with-
draw the mains plug when making or changing connections.
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any
way – switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unat-
tended operation or has a standby mode.
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this.
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of traffic
safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws — to ensure complete safety always fit the
manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
— NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case —
this could result in a fatal electrical shock.
— NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind — it is better to be safe than sorry!

Introduction
Continued
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.
About This Manual
Precautions
This manual is organized as follows:
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 buildup in the unit.
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid
interference with TV.
• This manual mainly explains playback operations
using the remote control, and the other operation
such as recording and editing operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit.
You can use the buttons and controls both on the
remote control and on the unit for the same
operations if they have the same or similar names (or
marks), unless mentioned otherwise.
• 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 “Basic and
Common Operations” on pages 13 – 16.
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or vibration.
Power sources
• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always
pull the plug, not the AC power cord.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet
hands.
Gives you warning and caution to prevent
from damage or risk of fire/electric shock.
Furthermore, gives you information which
is not good for obtaining the best possible
performance from the unit.
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, then plug it in
again.
Gives you information and hints you had
better know.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the AC power cord 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.
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no
user serviceable parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.

Precautions on Disc Playback and Recording
This unit has been designed to record on the discs bearing
the following logos:
Playback
This unit has been designed to play back discs bearing the
following logos:
CD ReWritable (CD-RW)
CD Recordable (CD-R)
CD ReWritable (CD-RW)
CD Recordable (CD-R)
Audio CD
In addition to the logos shown above, the words shown
below or their equivalent should also be indicated
somewhere on the package or accompanying
documentation.
• FOR CONSUMER
• FOR CONSUMER USE
• FOR MUSIC USE ONLY
CD Text
(Text information can be shown only when
playing on 3-CD Changer.)
The following discs cannot be used for recording:
• Discs bearing logos other than the above.
• Discs intended for professional use.
In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio
data recorded on CD-G (CD Graphics) and CD-Extra.
• Discs intended for recording computer data.
Notes on playing a CD-R or CD-RW:
• The built-in CD Recorder can play back both finalized
and unfinalized CD-Rs/CD-RWs.
• The built-in 3-CD Changer can also play back both
finalized and unfinalized CD-Rs/CD-RWs. However,
some unfinalized discs cannot be played back because
of their disc characteristics.
• Either on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder, you can
play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded on a personal
computer only if they have been recorded in the CD
audio format.
• Neither on 3-CD Changer nor on CD Recorder, you can
play back MP3 discs.
Important notice:
• The manufacturer assumes no liability whatsoever for
any damage resulting from missed opportunity or
accidental erasure that occurs while conducting
recording or playback operations due to malfunctioning
of or trouble in the unit, or for any incidental damage.
• Before recording on a CD-R, it is recommended to make
a test recording using a CD-RW.
• If PCA (Power Calibration Area) or PMA (Program
Memory Area) of the disc is recorded fully, recording
cannot be performed on this disc even though there are
still unused memory spaces on the disc.
• Some CD-Rs and CD-RWs may not be played back
either on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder because of
their disc characteristics, damage or stains.
• DO NOT subject the unit to any shock or
vibration while recording.
• DO NOT use a dusty or scratched CD-R/CD-
RW for recording; otherwise, you cannot
obtain the satisfactory recording quality.
Important notice:
• Continuous use of irregular–shaped discs (heart-shape,
octagonal, etc.) can damage the disc rotating mechanism.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is
caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is
lower than for regular CDs.
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-
record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without
the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or
video recording, broadcast or cable programme and
in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic
embodied therein.

Before You Start Recording
• When you record onto a partially recorded unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW, its contents are not erased or overwritten.
The recording starts from the point following the last recorded track of the disc.
For CD-RW only: If you want to record on such a CD-RW from the beginning, you have to erase its contents first
(see “Erasing All Tracks (Only for CD-RW)” on page 46). (You cannot erase the contents recorded on a CD-R.)
• When the data recordable memory area of an CD-R or CD-RW becomes fully while recording, recording will stop
automatically.
Optimum Power Control (OPC)
Auto track-marking
When an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW is loaded in CD
Recorder, this CD Recorder automatically checks the
disc condition and automatically adjusts the laser output
level to obtain optimum recording on the disc before
recording.
Whenever you turn on the unit, auto track-marking is
activated. (The AUTO TRACK indicator will light on
the display.)
When auto track-marking is activated
• Recording from 3-CD Changer:
Track marks are recorded automatically at the points
where the tracks change.
While OPC is being performed (for about 10 seconds),
“UPDATE OPC” flashes in the main display (and the
REC indicator also lights on the display).
• Recording an analog source—FM, AM, and
external component connected to the LINE IN
jacks:
No track mark is recorded on a disc. This means that,
when playing this disc, a CD player will regard the
entire recording as one track. However, if there is a
blank of 3 seconds or more, CD Recorder will
consider it as a blank separating 2 tracks and
consequently put a track mark.
If “OPC ERROR” appears in the main display
The disc inserted cannot be used for recording.
Sampling frequency rate converter
The sampling frequency rate converter built in the CD
Recorder allows you to record a digital source having
sampling frequency (fs) of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz.
• When you can record dts* CD or HDCD® ** signals
coming through the LINE DIGITAL IN terminal,
bypass the built-in sampling frequency rate converter.
• Recording through the LINE DIGITAL IN
terminal:
– If the playback source DOES have track marks
recorded, they are recorded automatically at the
points where the tracks change.
– If the playback source DOES NOT have track
marks recorded, this unit functions in the same way
for recording an analog source.
To bypass the sampling frequency rate converter, see
“Turning On or Off Sampling Frequency Rate
Converter” on page 44.
To cancel auto track-marking and use manual track-
marking, see “Recording Track Marks Manually—
Manual Track-Marking” on page 43.

Auto track space
While recording from the 3-CD Changer onto CD
Recorder, you can use this function.
When this function is turned on, CD Recorder
automatically makes 2-second blank portion at the
beginning of each track on a recorded disc.
To use this function for your recording, see
“Separating Recorded Tracks Automatically—Auto

Available recording modes—REC MODE
CD Recorder provides a variety of the recording
methods—called “Recording Modes.”
Available recording modes vary according to the
playback source and its playback status.
High-Speed Recording
When using some of the Recording Modes mentioned
on the left column, this unit allows you to change the
recording speed—normal speed and high speed.
For CD-R, high speed means 4 times normal speed and
for CD-RW, 2 times normal speed.
By pressing REC MODE after all preparation for
recording is finished, you can select and use the
following recording modes.
When you select high speed for your recording, you
cannot listen to the played-back sounds.
7 When the source is 3-CD Changer
—CD Synchronized Recording:
• CD Direct Recording (with or without
finalization)—See page 36.
• First Track Recording—See page 38.
• Listening Edit Recording (with or without
finalization)—See page 39.
During high-speed recording
You cannot listen to any source, and therefore, cannot adjust
the volume level. (“CANNOT LISTEN” will flash in the main
display if you try to do.)
During play, you can only perform a single track
recording—See page 41.
Finalization
7 When the source is the external component
• Sound Synchronized Recording—See page 40.
This is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-
RW. “Finalizing a disc” means writing the TOC (Table of
Contents) on the recorded disc.
Only after this process is completed, a recorded CD-R or
CD-RW can be played back on a CD player compatible
with CD-R/CD-RW.
• It is also recommended to finalize a disc in order to
play it back on 3-CD Changer.
When recording is stopped or finished, CD
Synchronized Recording and Sound Synchronized
Recording are canceled automatically.
To finalize a disc, see “Finalizing a Disc—CD-R/CD-
RW” on page 41.
Digital recording or analog recording?
CD Recorder automatically selects appropriate recording—
either digital or analog—during CD Synchronized Recording.
When digital source is selected as the playback sound, it will
be recorded digitally unless it is a first-generation digital copy
(see “SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)” on page 54).
In this case, CD Recorder selects analog recording.
During CD Synchronized Recording

Maintenance
To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs and mechanism clean.
General Notes
To play new discs
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your discs and the mechanism clean.
• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or
on shelves.
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
ballpoint pen, etc.
• Keep the disc trays closed when not in use.
To handling discs
Moisture condensation
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.
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the
following cases:
• After starting the heater.
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do
not touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case,
gently insert the disc around the center
holder (with the printed surface facing
up).
• When the unit is moved from the extremely hot place to
the extremely cold place.
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 evaporates.
• Make sure to store discs into the cases
after use.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface
of the disc when placing it back in
its case.
•
•
DO NOT expose discs to direct sunlight or any
heat source or place them in a place subject to
high temperature and humidity.
DO NOT leave discs in a car.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,
temperature extremes, and moisture.
To clean the unit
• Stains on the unit
Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is
heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-
diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe
clean with a dry cloth.
To clean the disc
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center
to edge.
• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about
the followings.
— DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
— DO NOT wipe it strong.
— DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
— DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
— DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in
contact with it for a long time.
DO NOT use any solvent—such as conventional
record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine—to clean
the disc.

Glossary
OPC (Optimum Power Control)
OPC is a function that checks the loaded disc and automatically adjusts the laser for optimum recording setting before
recording through the Digital Optical Input terminal.
PCA (Power Calibration Area)
A space reserved at the beginning of a CD-R/CD-RW for calibrating the laser output power required to record on that
disc.
PMA (Program Memory Area)
A temporary memory area on a CD-R/CD-RW, where the information about the recordings on the disc—track numbers,
tracks’ start points and end points, etc. is stored until the disc is finalized.
When the disc is finalized, this information is written in the TOC (see below).
Sampling Frequency
When analog signals are converted into digital signals, they are divided into many points and digitized. This dividing
method is called “sampling.” The sampling frequency indicates how many points one second is divided into—for
example, for CD sound, one second is divided into 44 100 points since its sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz.
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)
Digital audio components, such as CD recorder, MD (Mini-Disc) recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder, can
exchange audio signals in the digital forms through digital input/output terminals. The digital audio components allow
digital copy of music signals with little deterioration. This has made it necessary to have a copy restriction rule for
protecting the copyright, and “SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)” has been established as a result.
To protect the copyright, the SCMS allows only first-generation digital copies to be made from premastered software (like
CDs or prerecorded MDs).

TOC (Table of Contents)
TOC is a kind of disc information containing sub-data (track number, playing time, etc.) that enables us to search for
tracks quickly on the disc.
To write the TOC on a CD-R or CD-RW, you need to finalize the disc.
