Introduction
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.
Power sources
• When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug, not the AC power cord.
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
• The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using the unit, it is then explained.
• 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 “Common Operations” on pages 9
to 11.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet
hands.
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, and then plug it in
again.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.
Also gives you information which is not good
for obtaining the best possible performance
from the unit.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit 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.
Gives you information and hints you had better
know.
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no
user serviceable parts inside.
Precautions
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.
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 built-up in the unit.
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or vibration.

Recording
IMPORTANT:
Recording a Tape on Deck B
• It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted
material without the consent of the copyright owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is
not affected by the VOLUME control and the
SUBWOOFER VOLUME control. Thus, during recording
you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to
without affecting the recording level.
1 Press EJECT 0 for the deck B.
• While recording, you can hear sound modes through the
speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded
without these effects (see page 10).
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,
the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance
between the TV and the unit.
2 Put in a recordable cassette, with the exposed
part of the tape down.
• You can use type I and II tapes for recording.
3 Close the cassette holder gently.
4 Check the tape direction of deck B.
• If the tape direction is not correct, press TAPE 2 3
twice then 7 to change the tape direction.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs on
the back to protect unexpected
erasure or re-recording.
To protect your recording,
remove these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
adhesive tape.
When using type II tape, be careful not to cover the holes
used to detect the tape type.
5 Start playing the source — FM, AM*, CD
player, deck A, or auxiliary equipment
connected to AUX jacks.
• When the source is CD, you can also use CD Direct
Recording (see page 18) and Auto Edit Recording (see
page 19).
• When the source is deck A, you can also use the
dubbing method. (See “Dubbing Tapes” on page 18.)
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette decks
become dirty, the following will occur:
• Impaired sound quality
* See “To record an AM station — Beat Cut” on page 18.
• Discontinuous sound
• Fading
• Incomplete erasure
