Thank you for purchasing the JVC Compact Component System.  
We hope it will be a valued addition to your home, giving you years of enjoyment.  
Be sure to read this instruction manual carefully before operating your new stereo system.  
Here you will find all the information you need to set up and use the system.  
For questions that are not be answered in the manual, please contact your dealer.  
Features  
Here are some of the things that make your System powerful and easy to use.  
The controls and operations have been redesigned to make them very easy to use so you can spend  
your time listening to music.  
With the One Touch Operation feature of JVC’s COMPU PLAY you can turn on the System and  
start the radio, the Cassette Deck, or the CD Player with a single touch.  
The three types of surround modes including JVC’s 3D PHONIC which allows you a nearly surround  
effect with only two front speakers.  
To get such great sound from such a compact package the System has:  
Programmed sound mode includes live surround effects D. CLUB, HALL, and STADIUM. It also  
includes S.E.A (Sound Effect Amplifier) effects ROCK, POP, and CLASSIC. You can also  
register up to three customized settings.  
o
The System is compatible with RDS (Radio Data System) broadcasting.  
The EON data enables you to standby for desired information.  
The PTY Search function searches for programmes in the category you wish.  
In addition, Radio Text can be displayed using data sent by station.  
CD changer function can operate 3 discs.  
Discs can be changed during play using the TRIPLE TRAY.  
Continuous, random or program play of 3 discs.  
The three timers, DAILY Timer, ONCE REC (Recording) Timer, and SLEEP Timer are extremely  
easy to set.  
The Displays are large and clear. They are organized so you can tell at a glance what’s happening  
because functions light up as you use them, and blink to tell you they are ready. They provide some  
important messages like “NO DISC”, and other informations.  
How This Manual Is Organized  
In this manual we have incorporated some special features:  
Basic information that is the same for many different functions is grouped in one place, and not  
repeated in each procedure. For instance, in the section on playing a CD, we do not repeat the  
information about setting the volume and the sound conditions, which are discussed in the Common  
Operations section.  
Name of buttons and controls are written in all capital letters like this: VOLUME.  
When we are talking about the Function, rather than the BUTTON or DISPLAY, only the first letter is  
capitalized.  
The manual has a table of contents to help you quickly look up what you want to know.  
We’ve enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope you will use it to enjoy the sound and many features  
built into your System.  
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS  
Installation of the Unit  
Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. (Between 5°C and 35°C or  
41°F and 95°F.)  
Leave sufficient distance between the Unit and a TV.  
Do not use the Unit in a place subject to vibrations.  
Power cord  
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!  
Some power (12 watts) is always consumed as long as the power cord is connected to the wall  
outlet.

Malfunctions, etc.  
There are no user serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and

COMPU PLAY  
COMPU PLAY is JVC’s feature that lets you control the most frequently used functions of the System  
with a single touch.  
One Touch Operation starts playing a CD, turns on the radio, plays a tape, etc. with a single press of the  
play button for that function. What One Touch Operation does for you is to turn the power on, then start  
the function you have specified. If the Unit is not ready, such as no CD or tape in place, the Unit still  
powers on so you can insert a CD or tape.  
How One Touch Operation works in each case is explained in the section dealing with that function. The  
COMPU PLAY buttons are:

Using the Surround Processor  
The Built-in surround processor provides three types of the  
surround modes — JVC’s 3D-PHONIC mode, DAP (Digital  
Acoustic Processor ) mode, and Dolby Pro Logic mode.  
On JVC’s 3D-PHONIC Mode ———  
JVC’s 3D-PHONIC mode gives you such a nearly surround  
effect as it is reproduced through the Dolby Surround decoder,  
which is widely used to reproduce sounds with a feeling of  
movement like those experienced in movie theaters. JVC’s  
3D-PHONIC mode is the result of research on sound localiza-  
tion technology carried out at JVC for many years and makes  
it possible to reproduce the surround sound with only two  
front speakers.  
Reflections from  
behind  
On DAP Mode ——————————  
The sound heard in a concert hall or club consists of direct  
sound and indirect sound — early reflections and reflections  
from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without  
any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed  
by the distances of the ceiling and walls. These direct sounds  
and indirect sounds are the most important elements of the  
acoustic surround effects. The DAP mode can create these  
important elements, and gives you a real “being there” feeling  
by using only the front speakers.  
Early reflections  
Direct sounds  
On Dolby Pro Logic Mode ————  
Dolby Pro Logic is a function devised for home use to allow  
families to enjoy movies and music software bearing  
* mark which includes the same encoded  
surround information as found in Dolby Stereo films. Since  
Dolby Pro Logic reproduces dialogue from a center speaker  
independently, emphasizes the movement of sound, and gives  
you a real “being there” felling.  
* Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. “Dolby”, the double-  
D symbol and “Pro Logic” are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.  
Notes:  
The surround processor has no effect on monaural sources.  
The surround processor cannot be used for recording.

Logic Mode  
Preparing the Dolby Pro Logic Reproduction ———————  
For connecting the diagram, See page 6 ‘‘For Dolby Pro Logic Reproduction’’.  
To use the Dolby Pro Logic mode, you need to prepare the various settings as follows:  
Center Speaker Mode  
Center Speaker mode contains the following four settings.  
PHANTOM: Select this setting if you have not connected a center speaker. The left and right front  
speakers project the sound to give the effect of a center speaker.  
NORMAL:  
Select this setting if you are using a small center speaker. Since the center speaker  
cannot boost the low tones effectively, this setting uses the front speakers to boost the  
low tones from the center speaker.  
WIDE:  
OFF:  
Select this setting if you are using a center speaker that is similar in power to the front  
speakers.  
Select this setting to turn off the output for the center speaker.  
Delay Time Mode  
Delay Time mode contains the following three settings.  
DELAY-1:  
DELAY-2:  
DELAY-3:  
Select this setting if the rear speakers are further away from your listening position  
than the front speakers. (Delay time: 15 msec.)  
Select this setting if the rear speakers and front speakers are about the same distance  
way from your listening position. (Delay time: 20 msec.)  
Select this setting if the rear speakers are nearer to your listening position than the  
front speakers. (Delay time: 25 msec.)  
Adjusting the level of the Center Speaker  
Adjust the level of the center speaker between +10 and –10. Set the level so that it is about the same as the  
level from the front speakers.  
Adjusting the level of the Rear Speakers  
Adjust the level of the rear speakers between +10 and –10. Set the level so that it is about the same as the  
level from the front speakers.  
You cannot adjust the levels of the left and right rear speakers independently.

Receiving FM Stations with RDS  
RDS (Radio Data System) is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM stations are now  
providing. It allows the FM stations to send additional signals along with their regular programme signals.  
For example, the stations send their station names and information about what type of programme they  
broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.  
When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up, the station  
frequency (and then the station name if sent) is displayed.  
One convenient RDS service is “Enhanced Other Networks (EON)”. This allows the Unit to automatically  
switch to a programme type of your choice when one starts in your broadcast area.  
o
Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do all RDS stations provide the same services. If in  
doubt, check with local radio stations for details on RDS services in your area.  
Note: RDS may not work correctly if the station to which you are tuned is not transmitting properly or if  
the signal strength is weak.  
What Information RDS can Provide ————————————  
The System can use the following RDS service.  
PS (Program Service name)  
Identifies each station by a name.  
TA (Traffic Announcement Identification)  
Identifies that a traffic announcement is being broadcast in your area.  
RT (Radio Text)  
Allows the RDS station to send text messages that appear on the display of the unit.  
PTY (Programme Type)  
Identifies the type of RDS programme. This allows you to locate a specific type of programme being  
broadcast.  
The programme types are as follows:  
TRAFFIC:  
NEWS:  
Traffic announcement  
News  
INFO:  
Programmes on medical service, weather forecast, etc.  
POP M:  
Pop music  
ROCK M:  
M.O.R. M:  
LIGHT M:  
Rock music  
Middle-of-the-road music (usually called “easy listening”)  
Light music  
CLASSICS: Classics  
OTHER M: Other music  
AFFAIRS:  
SPORT:

When using the DISPLAY MODE button to change the display, use the appropriate setting for the  
type of display.  
Notes:  
EON broadcasts of some stations may not be compatible with this Unit. In the case of an incompatible  
EON broadcast, “EON” will not appear on the display.  
While the Unit is receiving information for an EON code you have selected for EON Standby, you  
cannot use the following operations: cursor key, TA/NEWS/INFO button or PTY SEARCH button. In  
addition, if a station transmits information for a programme type you have selected without sending  
the EON code, the EON Standby operation is still performed. Therefore, you will not be able to use  
the operations listed above during this period.  
If the reception is unsatisfactory for a station among the preset stations, “WAITING” appears on the  
display and the station is searched for again. If after searching through the channels five times, the  
broadcasting station cannot be found, “NOT” and “FOUND” are displayed alternately on the display.  
The Unit will then return to the station to which it was previously tuned.  
When broadcasting of the desired information has been completed, “EON END” will be indicated and the  
Unit will automatically go back to the station which had previously been tuned to.  
o
o
While receiving information on EON Standby reception, the station will not change to other stations  
even if the same information is available from them.  
If you cancel the EON function when in EON Standby reception mode by either pressing the EON  
ON/OFF button, the Unit will automatically return to the station which had been previously tuned-in.  
If the information you are waiting for is available from the current station, the indicator will blink.  
ALARM function ——————————————————————  
If an ALARM (Emergency) signal is received while receiving an EON code from a station, “ALARM”  
blinks on the display and the Unit automatically switches to the station broadcasting the ALARM signal.  
When an ALARM broadcast of PTY is being received from the currently tuned-in station, “ALARM” will  
blink on the display for your attention.

Music Scan works by detecting a 4-second long blank at the begin-  
ning of each selection, so it won’t work well if your tape has:  
No blank at the beginning of a selection .  
Noise (often caused by much use or poor quality dubbing) which fills the blank with noise.  
Long, very soft passages or pauses in a selection. The scan will detect these as 4-second long  
blanks. If this happens, just scan again until you reach the selection you want.  
Other Useful Features of the Cassette Deck  
Reverse Mode ———————————————————————  
Use Reverse Mode to make the tape automatically reverse at the end of a side and start playing the other side.  
Press the REVERSE MODE button to switch Reverse Mode on (the indicator lights up) or off (the  
indicator goes off).  
REVERSE  
MODE  
When the Reverse Mode is set to off (the indicator goes off), the tape stops playing after being played on  
one side.  
DOLBY B NR ————————————————————————  
Press the DOLBY B NR button to switch Dolby B Noise Reduction on (the indicator lights up) or off (the  
indicator goes off). If a tape is recorded with the Dolby B NR system, playing it back with the Dolby NR

When the System is being used, the display shows other items as well.  
However, we have only shown the items described in this section.  
REC PAUSE  
Recording onto a cassette from any of the sound sources is simple. Just place a tape in the Tape Tray, have  
the source ready, make one or two settings, and you’re ready to record. For each source the procedure is a  
little different and now we’ll explain just what to do for each one. If you forget, just come back to the  
section which has the specific procedures you need. But first, here are a few things to make your record-  
ings better.  
Things To Know Before You Start Recording ———————  
o
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of  
the copyright owner.  
o
o
Press the DOLBY B NR button — the indicator lights up — to reduce tape hiss.  
When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set Reverse mode on to do so. However,  
recording automatically stops after recording in the 2 direction in Reverse mode. Therefore, make  
sure that the tape direction is 3 when recording with Reverse mode on.  
o
o
The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape is being made, is automatically set  
correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control on the System. Thus, during recording you can  
adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.  
Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to  
prevent accidental erasure or re-recording. To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must  
cover the holes with adhesive tape first. However, when a type II tape is used, only cover part of the  
hole as shown, since the other part of the hole is used to detect the tape type.  
When recording, you can hear Sound Mode effects through the speakers or headphones. However, the  
sound is recorded without Sound Mode effects.  
o
o
Type I and Type II tapes can be used for recording.  
Note: At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Depend-  
ing on the recording source, the first part of the recording may be missing because of the leader. When  
recording CDs or radio broadcasts, to get the beginning of the recording on the tape, first wind on the  
leader before beginning recording.  
CAUTION: If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,  
the Unit may be too close to a TV which was on during the recording.  
Either turn off the TV or increase the distance between the TV and the  
System.

Standard Recording  
This is the basic method for recording any source. The System also has special ways for recording CD to  
tape which save you time and effort, as well as give you some special effects. However, when you need to  
add a selection to a tape you have made, or are combining selections from several sources on one tape,  
use the method described below; just substitute the source you want into this procedure, such as a CD or  
the Tuner. You can also record from VCR with this procedure.  
To Record Any Sound Source To Tape ——————————  
1. Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Tape Tray. (See page 36.)  
2. When recording on both sides of a tape, set Reverse Mode to on  
(the indicator lights up).  
If you are recording while Reverse Mode is on, insert the tape so that it will be recorded in the  
forwards 3 direction. (See page 36.)  
3. Check the recording direction for the tape.  
Check that the Tape Direction indicator is the same as that for the tape in the Tape Tray. If the directions  
are different, press the 7 button after pressing the 2 or 3 button to set the tape direction. (When using  
the Remote Control, press the TAPE DIRECTION button to synchronize the tape direction.)  
If you are recording while Reverse Mode is on, check that the Tape Direction indicator is in the  
forwards 3 direction then press the 7 button. (When using the Remote Control, press the TAPE  
DIRECTION button so that the Tape Direction indicator is in the 3 direction.)  
4. Prepare the source, by, for example, tuning in a radio station,  
loading CDs, or turning on connected equipment.  
5. Press the REC START/STOP button.  
REC START  
/STOP  
The recording indicator blinks and the System begins to record.  
Notes for using Reverse Mode for recording  
If you are recording while Reverse Mode is on, the System automatically stops when it reaches the end of  
the reverse 2 direction. To record on both sides of a tape, make sure that the recording direction for the  
tape inserted into Tape Tray is forwards 3, and that the Tape Direction indicator is also forwards 3,  
before you start recording.  
To Pause at Any Time During the Recording  
Press the REC PAUSE button after pressing the TAPE CONTROL button on the Remote Control. The  
Recording indicator changes from a blinking display to a steady display. To continue the recording, press  
the REC START/STOP button on the Unit or the 3  
button on the Remote Control.  
button after pressing the TAPE CONTROL  
To Stop at Any Time During the Recording Process  
Press the REC START/STOP button on the Unit or the 7  
button on the Remote Control.

Checking the Tape Counter While Recording ———————  
You can check the tape counter while you are recording.  
TAPE  
DISPLAY  
Press the TAPE DISPLAY button on the Remote Control while  
recording.  
The display changes from the source display to the counter display for about five seconds.  
How to create a blank section on the tape ————————  
1. Select the CD as a source and stop the CD.  
2. Press the REC START/STOP button, to create a blank section on  
the tape.  
3. After you have created a blank space, press the REC START/STOP  
button again to stop recording.

CD Direct Recording  
Everything on the CD goes onto the tape in the order it is on the CD, or according to the order you have  
set in a program.  
1. Prepare CDs. (See page 27.)  
Check that the CD Player is not playing a CD.  
Set the source to CD.  
2. Insert a cassette into the Tape Tray to record on.  
When you want to record on both sides of a tape, press the REVERSE MODE button to turn Reverse  
Mode on. Check that the recording direction for the tape and the Tape Direction indicator are correct.  
(See page 39 “Notes for using Reverse Mode for recording”.)  
CD REC  
START  
3. Press the CD REC START button.  
“CD TAPE” appears on the display and the CD Player starts playing the first track to be recorded.  
At the end of the tape, the System automatically goes back to the beginning of the last selection and re-  
records it, this time gently fading out at the end. If you selected the Reverse Mode, the reverse side starts  
with the last selection on the first side and will be faded out at the end again. (About 10 second blank is  
created at the beginning of the reverse side.) When the recording is finished, the message “CD REC  
FINISHED” scrolls by on the display. The CD Player and Cassette Deck stop.  
To Stop at Any Time During the Recording Process  
Press the REC START/STOP or 7 button.  
The recording stops when you press the REC START/STOP button. If you press the 7 button, the unit  
creates a four second blank section of tape before stopping.  
Note: When making SLEEP timer settings while doing CD Direct recording, set the time so that there is  
enough leeway to finish the recording before the power goes off. If the time is set to about the length of  
the CD, the power may go off before recording finishes.  
For CD Direct Recording using more than one disc, use a blank tape, If you use a prerecorded tape,  
prerecorded material may not be erased between newly-recorded tracks.  
Auto Edit Recording  
Using Auto Edit, you can record the CD tracks to fit the tape, so a selection isn’t cut off. Auto Edit is one  
of the best ways to copy all of a CD onto a tape.  
Auto Edit programs the CD tracks in numerical order. To prevent the end of the last track on the first side  
from being cut off, the last track on the first side is selected to fit on the remaining tape length.  
1. Prepare the CD or CDs. (See page 27.)  
Set the source to CD and check that the CD Player is not playing a CD.

CD REC  
START  
The Unit plays the CD and starts recording. If the tape has not been rewound, the Unit rewinds the  
tape before starting to record the CD.  
When the tape is ready, to prevent the start of a track being cut, the System creates a blank period of  
about 10 seconds before it starts to record the CD. While a blank period is being created, “TAPE  
SIDE-A STANDBY” scrolls through the display. (The System also creates about 10 second blank  
period at the start of side B of the tape. While a blank period is being created, “TAPE SIDE-B  
STANDBY” scrolls through the display.)  
When the recording is finished, the message “CD REC FINISHED” scrolls by on the display. The CD  
Player and Cassette Deck stop.  
To stop at any time while recording, press the REC START/STOP button or the 7 button. The  
recording stops when you press the REC START/STOP button. If you press the 7 button, the unit creates  
a four second blank section of tape before stopping.  
To cancel Auto Edit, press the 0 button on the CD Player or the ALL CD EJECT button. You can also  
cancel Auto Edit by selecting play mode from the Unit or the Remote Control after stopping the recording.  
Notes:  
If you change any of the CD’s while using Auto Edit, Auto Edit will be cancelled. Therefore, do not  
change the CD’s while using Auto Edit.  
When making SLEEP timer settings while doing Auto Edit recording, set the time so that there is  
enough leeway to finish the recording before the power goes off. If the time is set to about the length  
of the CD, the power may go off before recording finishes.

playback starts using the selected source. A few seconds before the end time for the timer. “TIMER”  
blinks on the display and when the end time is reached the power is automatically turned off again.

Check that tape direction is correct. This is important especially when Reverse Mode is off.  
Set Reverse Mode on if you want to record on both sides of the tape.  
The VOLUME control is automatically set to 0 when ONCE REC Timer is recording.  
It is very easy, and can be very disappointing, to forget to put in a  
tape, or to accidentally leave a tape in Tape Tray you don’t want  
recorded over. Although this happens to almost everyone at one time  
or another, we hope it won’t happen to you!  
To Change the Recording Timer Setting  
To change the settings for the ONCE REC Timer, repeat the setting procedure from the beginning.  
Turning the ONCE REC Timer On and Off —————————

Setting the SLEEP Timer  
Use the Sleep Timer to turn the Unit off after a certain number of minutes when it is playing. By setting  
this timer, you can fall asleep to music and know your Unit will turn off by itself rather than play all night.  
o
You can only set the Sleep Timer when the Unit is on and a source is playing.  
To set the SLEEP Timer, follow this procedure:  
1. With the System on and a source playing,  
press the SLEEP button on the Remote  
Control.  
SLEEP  
SLEEP  
The message “SLEEP” appears on the display.  
2. Set the length of time you want the source to play before shutting  
off.  
Each time you press this button while the “SLEEP” indicator is blinking, it changes the number of  
minutes shown on the display in this sequence:  
= 10 = 20 = 30 = 60 = 90 =120 = Cancelled = (back to the beginning)  
When the number of minutes you want shows on the display, just wait 5 seconds until the “SLEEP”  
indicator stops blinking, and is lighted steadily.  
The Unit is now set to turn off after the number of minutes you set.  
To Change the SLEEP Timer Setting  
Press the SLEEP button until the number of minutes you want appears on the display.  
To Cancel the SLEEP Timer Setting  
Press the SLEEP button until the “SLEEP” indicator goes off on the display.  
Turning off the Unit also cancels the SLEEP Timer.  
Timer Priority  
Since each timer can be set independently, you may wonder what happens if the settings overlap. Here are  
the priorities for each timer:  
o
The ONCE REC Timer always has priority. This means that:  
If another timer is set to come on during a time when the ONCE REC Timer is operating, the  
other timer just won’t come on at all, so you will always get the entire program on tape.  
If the ONCE REC Timer is set to come on while another timer is operating, the other timer will  
shut off 10 seconds before the ONCE REC Timer is set to turn on, and the ONCE REC Timer will  
then take over.  
o
The SLEEP Timer has the least priority. This means that if the SLEEP Timer is set while the DAILY  
Timer is operating, the DAILY Timer settings are cancelled. However, if the DAILY Timer is set to  
come while the SLEEP Timer is operating, the SLEEP Timer setting will be cancelled and the Unit  
will use the settings from the DAILY Timer.
