CD CHANGER OPERATIONS

About MP3 discs

We recommend that you use the JVC MP3-

compatible CD changer with your unit.

MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in “folders”

—in PC terminology.

During recording, the files and folders can be

arranged in a way similar to arranging files and

folders of computer data.

By using this CD changer, you can play back

your original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs

(Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format

or in MP3 format.

• You can also connect other CH-X series

Note:

Nota:

Remarque:

This unit is designed to operate only on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE

ground electrical systems. If your vehicle does not have this

system, a voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at

JVC car audio dealers.

Esta unidad está diseñada para funcionar con 12 V de CC, con

sistemas eléctricos de masa NEGATIVA solamente. Si su vehículo

no posee este sistema, será necesario un inversor de tensión, que

puede ser adquirido en los concesionarios de JVC de equipos de

audio para automóviles.

Cet appareil est conçu pour fonctionner sur des sources de courant

continu de 12 V à masse NEGATIVE seulement. Si votre véhicule

n’offre pas ce type d’alimentation, il vous faut un convertisseur de

tension, que vous pouvez acheter chez un revendeur d’autoradios

JVC.

• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse

blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

• If noise is a problem...

This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. However,

with some vehicles, clicking or other unwanted noise may occur.

If this happens, connect the unit’s rear ground terminal (see

connection diagram) to the car’s chassis using shorter and thicker

cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If noise still

persists, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

• Maximum input of the speakers should be more than 50 W at

the rear and 50 W at the front, with an impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω.

• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis.

• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to

touch it when removing this unit.

• Reemplace el fusible por uno con la corriente especificada. Si el

fusible se quemase frecuentemente consulte con su

concesionario de JVC de equipos de audio para automóviles.

• Si el ruido fuese un problema...

Esta unidad tiene un filtro de ruido en el circuito de alimentación.

Sin embargo, en algunos vehículos, pueden producirse

chasquidos u otros ruidos indeseados. En tal caso conecte el

terminal de tierra posterior (véase diagrama de conexión) del

receptor al chasis del automóvil, utilizando cordones más gruesos

y cortos tales como alambre de cobre trenzado o de grueso

calibre. Si el ruido persiste, consulte a su concesionario de JVC

de equipos de audio para automóvil.

• La entrada máxima de los altavoces traseros no debe ser más

que 50 W en el trasero y 50 W en la frontal, con una impedancia

de 4 Ω a 8 Ω.

• Asegúrese de conectar esta unidad a tierra en el chasis del

automóvil.

• Remplacer le fusible par un de la valeur précisée. Si le fusible

saute souvent, consulter votre revendeur d’autoradios JVC.

• Si le bruit est un problème...

Cet appareil incorpore un filtre de bruit dans le circuit d’alimentation.

Cependant, avec certains véhicules, quelques claquements ou

autres bruits non désirés risquent de se produire. Si cela arrive,

raccorder la borne arrière de masse de l’appareil au châssis de

la voiture (voir le schéma de raccordement) en utilisant des cordons

les plus gros et les plus courts possibles telle qu’une barre de cuivre

ou une tresse. Si le bruit persiste, consulter votre revendeur

d’autoradios JVC.

• La puissance admissible des enceintes devrait supérieure à

50 W à l’arrière et à 50 W l’avant, avec une impédance de 4 Ω à 8 Ω.

• S’assurer de raccorder la mise à la masse de cet appareil au

châssis de la voiture.

• Le dissipateur de chaleur devient très chaud après usage. Faire

attention de ne pas le toucher en retirant cet appareil.
