Maintenance  
How to clean the connectors  
To keep discs clean  
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the  
connectors.  
A dirty disc may not play correctly.  
If a disc does become dirty, wipe  
it with a soft cloth in a straight line  
from center to edge.  
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe  
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth  
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to  
damage the connectors.  
• Do not use any solvent (for  
example, conventional record cleaner, spray,  
thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.  
To play new discs  
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.  
Connector  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges  
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the  
VCD/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 VCD/CD player may  
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and  
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the  
moisture evaporates.  
How to handle discs  
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.  
Center holder  
• 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).  
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after  
use.  
Do not use the following discs:  
Stick-on

More about this unit  
Inserting a disc  
• When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc  
automatically ejects.  
• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CD) and  
unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into  
the loading slot.  
Basic operations  
Turning on the power  
• By pressing SOURCE on the unit, you can  
also turn on the power.  
Turning off the power  
• If you turn off the power while listening to a  
disc, disc play will start from where playback  
has been stopped previously, next time you  
turn on the power.  
For MP3/WMA discs, playback will start  
from the beginning of the last playing track.  
Playing a CD-R or CD-RW  
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.  
• This unit can play back only the files of the  
same type which is first detected if a disc  
includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and  
MP3/WMA files.  
• This unit can play back multi-session discs;  
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped  
while playing.  
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play  
back on this unit because of their disc  
characteristics, and for the following causes:  
– Discs are dirty or scratched.  
Tuner operations  
Storing stations in memory  
• During SSM search...  
– All previously stored stations are erased  
and stations are stored newly.  
– Received stations are preset in No. 1  
(lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest  
frequency).  
– When SSM is over, the station stored in  
No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.  
• When storing a station manually, a previously  
preset station is erased when a new station is  
stored in the same preset number.  
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens  
inside the unit.  
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.  
– CD-R or CD-RW on which the files are  
written with “Packet Write” method.  
– There are improper recording conditions  
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions  
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).  
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time  
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower  
than that of regular CDs.  
• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:  
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective  
seal stuck to the surface.  
– Discs on which labels can be directly  
printed by an ink jet printer.  
Using these discs under high temperatures or  
high humidities may cause malfunctions or  
damages to discs.

This unit is designed to operate 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.  
WARNINGS  
• DO NOT install any unit in locations where;  
– it may obstruct the steering wheel and gearshift lever operations, as this may result in a traffic accident.  
– it may obstruct the operation of safety devices such as air bags, as this may result in a fatal accident.  
– it may obstruct visibility.  
• DO NOT operate any unit while manipulating the steering wheel, as this may result in a traffic accident.  
• The driver must not watch the monitor while driving.  
If the driver watches the monitor while driving, it may lead to carelessness and cause an accident.  
• If you need to operate the unit while driving, be sure to look ahead carefully or you may be involved in a traffic accident.  
• If the parking brake is not engaged, “PARKING” flashes on the display, and no playback picture will be shown on the monitor.  
– This warning appears only when the parking brake wire is connected to the parking brake system built in the car.

Install the unit at an angle of less than 30˚.  
Removing the unit  
Before removing the unit, release the rear section.  
Insert the two handles, then pull  
them as illustrated so that the  
unit can be removed.  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS  
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.  
Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.  
Notes:  
• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.  
• It is recommended to connect to the speakers with maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 to 8 ). If the maximum power is less than  
50 W, change “AMP GAIN” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 24 of the INSTRUCTIONS).  
• To prevent short-circuit, cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape.  
• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.  
Heat sink  
PRECAUTIONS on power supply and speaker connections:  
DO NOT connect the speaker leads of the power cord to the car battery; otherwise, the unit will be seriously damaged.  
• BEFORE connecting the speaker leads of the power cord to the speakers, check the speaker wiring in your car.  
TROUBLESHOOTING  
The fuse blows.  
* Are the red and black leads connected correctly?  
Power cannot be turned on.  
* Is the yellow lead connected?  
No sound from the speakers.  
* Is the speaker output lead short-circuited?  
Sound is distorted.  
* Is the speaker output lead grounded?  
* Are the “–” terminals of L and R speakers grounded in common?  
Noise interfere with sounds.  
* Is the rear ground terminal connected to the car’s chassis using shorter and thicker cords?  
Unit becomes hot.  
* Is the speaker output lead grounded?  
* Are the “–” terminals of L and R speakers grounded in common?  
This unit does not work at all.  
* Have you reset your unit?
