About the demonstration mode (DEMO MODE)...

When shipped from the factory, “DEMO MODE” is set to “DEMO ON” in this unit.

The following demonstration, introducing the main features equipped with this unit, will appear on the

display automatically if no sound comes in for 3 minutes. (See page 20.)

• 24bit DAC

: (24 bit digital-analog converter: Gives you a high quality sound after D/A

conversion.)

• HS TUNER

• EQUALIZER

: (High-sensitivity Tuner: Enables a fine reception of stations.)

: (Allows you to fine-adjust the sound to match your preference.)

• SUB WOOFER : (ONLY for KD-SH77: Enables you to connect a subwoofer and to adjust its

output level.)

CAUTION on Volume Setting

CDs produce very little noise compared with other sources. If the volume level is adjusted for the tuner, for

example, the speakers may be damaged by the sudden increase in the output level. Therefore, lower the

volume before playing a disc and adjust it as required during playback.

If the sound quality decreases and the

stereo effect is lost while listening to

an FM station

In some areas, adjacent stations may interfere

with each other. If this interference occurs, this

unit can automatically reduce this interference

noise (the initial setting when shipped from the

factory). However, in this case, the sound

quality will be degraded and the stereo effect

will be also lost.

If you do not want to degrade the sound quality

and to lose the stereo effect, rather than to

eliminate the interference noise, see “To

change the FM tuner selectivity – IF FILTER”

on page 20.

3 Press and hold the number button (in

this example, 1) for more than 2

seconds.

“P1” flashes for a while.

North or South America:

You need to change the AM/FM channel

intervals. See “To change the AM/FM channel

intervals – AREA” on page 20.

Notes:

• A previously preset station is erased when a new

station is stored in the same preset number.

• Preset stations are erased when the power supply

to the memory circuit is interrupted (for example,

during battery replacement). If this occurs, preset

the stations again.

To adjust the auxiliary input level

– AUX ADJ

Adjust the auxiliary input level properly when an

external component is connected to the MP3

INPUT jack.

When shipped from the factory, the auxiliary input

level is set at level 00.

If the input level of the connected component is not

high enough, increase the input level properly.Without

adjusting the line input level, you may be surprised at

a loud sound when you change the source from the

external component to another source.

When this unit is shipped from the factory, the

channel intervals are set to 10 kHz for AM and 200

kHz for FM (AREA US settings).

You will have to change the channel intervals

when using this unit in an area other than North

America and South America.

• AREA EU:

Select this when using this unit in

an area other than North and

South America. (9 kHz for AM and

50 kHz (for manual tuning) / 100

kHz (for searching) for FM)

• AREA US:

Select this when using this unit in

North or South America. (10 kHz

for AM and 200 kHz for FM)

To select the target component to operate

through this receiver

– KEY SELECT (For KD-SH77 only)

Note:

If the channel intervals settings are changed, the names

assigned to the stations will be erased from memory. To

reassign the names, see “Assigning names to the

sources” on pages 21.

You can operate either JVC’s VCR or DVD player

through this receiver, by using the number buttons

on the control panel.

When shipped from the factory, these number

buttons are set to be used for the DVD operations.

To use these number buttons on the control panel

for DVD or VCR operations, see page 25.

To adjust the line input level – LINE ADJ

(For KD-SH77 only)

Adjust the line input level properly when an

external component is connected to the LINE IN

plugs.

To change the FM tuner selectivity

– IF FILTER

When shipped from the factory, the line input level

is set at level 00.

In some areas, adjacent stations may interfere

with each other. If this interference occurs, noise

may be heard. This unit has been preset to

automatically reduce this interference noise

(“AUTO”) when shipped from the factory.

• AUTO: When this type of interference occurs,

this unit automatically increases the

tuner selectivity so that interference

noise will be reduced. (But the stereo

effect will also be lost.)

If the input level of the connected component is

not high enough, increase the input level properly.

Without adjusting the line input level, you may be

surprised at a loud sound when you change the

source from the external component to another

source.

To select the external component to use

– EXT INPUT (For KD-SH55 only)

• WIDE: Subject to the interference from

adjacent stations, but sound quality

will not be degraded and the stereo

effect will not be lost.

You can connect the external component to the

CD changer jack on the rear using the Line Input

Adaptor KS-U57 (not supplied).

To use the external component as the playback

source through this unit, you need to select which

component – CD changer or external component

– to use.

When shipped from the factory, CD changer is

selected as the external component.

To turn the demo mode on or off

– DEMO MODE

You can turn the demo mode on or off. When

shipped from the factory, “DEMO ON” is selected.

• DEMO ON: Turns the demo mode on. The

demonstration will start automatically

if no sound comes in for 3 minutes.

• DEMO OFF: Turns the demo mode off.

• LINE INPUT:

To use the external component

other than CD changer.

• CD CHANGER: To use the CD changer.

Note:

For connecting the Line Input Adaptor KS-U57 and the

If the unit has been reset (and the power is on),

demonstration will start if no sound comes in for about

10 seconds.

MAINTENANCE

Handling CDs

CAUTIONS:

•

Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into

the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be ejected.)

Do not insert any CD of unusual shape — like a

heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a

malfunction.

This unit has been designed to reproduce the

CDs bearing the following marks.

•

COMPACT

DIGITAL AUDIO

•

Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat

source or place them in a place subject to high

temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a

car.

Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional

record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to

clean CDs.

You can also play back your original CD-Rs

(Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) on this

receiver.

This unit is not compatible with MP3.

Center holder

How to handle CDs

When removing a CD from its

case, press down the center

holder of the case and lift the

CD out, holding it by the edges.

• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch

its recording surface.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs

(Rewritable) can be played back only if they are

already “finalized.”

When storing a CD into its case, gently insert

the CD around the center holder (with the printed

surface facing up).

• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after

use.

•

You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-

RWs recorded in music CD format. (However,

they may not be played back depending on their

characteristics or recording conditions.)

Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read

their instructions or cautions carefully.

Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played

back on this unit because of their disc

characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if

the player’s lens is dirty.

•

To keep CDs clean

A dirty CD may not play

correctly. If a CD does become

dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in

a straight line from center to

edge.

•

CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high

temperatures or high humidity; so do not leave

them inside your car.

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.)

To play new CDs

New CDs may have some

rough spots around the inner

and outer edges. If such a CD

is used, this unit may reject the

CD.

About mistracking:

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with

a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Mistracking may result from driving on

extremely rough roads. This does not damage

the unit and the CD, but will be annoying.

We recommend that you stop CD play while

driving on such rough roads.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the

CD player in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.

• If it becomes very humid inside the car.

Should this occur, the CD player may

malfunction. In this case, eject the CD and

leave the unit turned on for a few hours until

the moisture evaporates.
