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.  
About This Manual  
Precautions  
This manual is organized as follows:  
Installation  
• You can use the buttons and controls both on the  
remote control and on the unit for the same operations  
if they have the same or similar names (or marks),  
unless mentioned otherwise.  
• Install the unit 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 build-up in the unit.  
• 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 and others, which  
are explained in the section “Basic Operations” on page 9.  
• The following marks are used in this manual:  
DO NOT install the unit in a location near  
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct  
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.  
Power sources  
• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull  
the plug, not the AC power cord.  
Gives you warning and caution to prevent  
from damage or risk of fire/electric shock.  
Furthermore, gives you information which is  
not good for obtaining the best possible  
performance from the unit.  
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  
Gives you information and hints you had  
better know.  
• 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, then plug it in again.  
Others  
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug  
the AC power cord 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.  
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are  
no user serviceable parts inside.  
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and  
consult your dealer.

Precautions on Disc Playback and Recording  
Playback  
This unit has been designed to record on the discs bearing  
the following logos:  
This unit has been designed to play back discs bearing the  
following logos:  
CD ReWritable (CD-RW)  
CD Recordable (CD-R)  
CD ReWritable (CD-RW)  
CD Recordable (CD-R)  
Audio CD  
In addition to the logos shown above, the words shown below  
or their equivalent should also be indicated somewhere on  
the package or accompanying documentation.  
• FOR CONSUMER  
• FOR CONSUMER USE  
• FOR MUSIC USE ONLY  
Make sure the words, DIGITAL AUDIO, is shown on the discs.  
In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio  
data recorded on CD-G (CD Graphics), CD-Text, CD-Extra  
and CD-R/CD-RW (single session) including MP3 tracks  
(files).  
The following discs cannot be used for recording:  
• Discs bearing logos other than the above.  
• Discs intended for professional use.  
Notes on playing a CD-R or CD-RW:  
• Discs intended for recording computer data.  
• The built-in CD Recorder can play back both finalized and  
unfinalized CD-Rs/CD-RWs, however 3-CD Changer  
cannot play back unfinalized CD-RWs.  
• Either on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder, you can play  
back CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded on a personal computer  
only if they have been recorded in the CD audio format.  
Also 3-CD Changer can play back CD-Rs/CD-RWs (single  
session) including MP3 tracks (files).  
Important notice:  
• The manufacturer assumes no liability whatsoever for any  
damage resulting from missed opportunity or accidental  
erasure that occurs while conducting recording or  
playback operations due to malfunctioning of or trouble in  
the unit, or for any incidental damage.  
• Before recording on a CD-R, it is recommended to make a  
test recording using a CD-RW.  
• Some CD-Rs and CD-RWs may not be played back either  
on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder because of their disc  
characteristics, damage or stains.  
• If PCA (Power Calibration Area) or PMA (Program Memory  
Area) of the disc is already recorded fully, any further  
recording cannot be performed on this disc even though  
there are still unused memory spaces on the disc. (See  
“Glossary” on page 42.)  
Important notice:  
• Continuous use of irregular–shaped discs (heart-shape,  
octagonal, etc.) can damage the disc rotating mechanism.  
• DO NOT subject the unit to any shock or  
vibration while recording.  
• DO NOT use a dusty or scratched CD-R/  
CD-RW for recording; otherwise, you cannot  
obtain the satisfactory recording quality.  
• CD-RWs may require a longer read-out time. This is caused  
by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for  
regular CDs.  
• MP3 discs require a longer read-out time. It differs  
depending on the complexity of the group/track  
configuration.  
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record  
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the  
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or  
video recording, broadcast or cable program and in  
any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied  
therein.

Playing Back MP3 Discs on 3-CD Changer  
• You can play back MP3 tracks (files) recorded on MP3 discs (CD-R/CD-RW) on the built-in 3-CD Changer.  
• You cannot record MP3 tracks using the built-in CD Recorder.  
• Program Play, Random Play and Pitch Control are not available for MP3 discs.  
MP3 Disc Structure  
About MP3  
MP3 “tracks (files)” can be recorded in “groups  
(directories)”—in PC terminology.  
During recording, the tracks and groups can be arranged in a  
way similar to arranging files and directories of computer  
data.  
“Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every track and group  
can be linked to and be accessed from the root.  
MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or  
MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data  
compression ratio of 1:10 (128 kbps*). That means, by using  
MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as  
much data volume as a regular CD can.  
* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio  
data will consume. The unit used is kbps (1024 bits/second). To  
get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most  
popular bit rate for encoding and the most recommended for this  
3-CD Changer is 128 kbps.  
Playback order, track search order, and group search order  
of the MP3 tracks recorded on a disc are determined by the  
writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order  
may be different from the one you have intended while  
recording the groups and the tracks.  
Compatible with ID3v1  
The illustration below shows an example of how MP3 tracks  
are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played  
back, and how they are searched for on this 3-CD Changer.  
Extra information data such as album title, performer name,  
song title, recording year, music genre and a brief comment  
can be stored within an MP3 track.  
3-CD Changer can show ID3v1 tags (album title, performer  
name and song title) on the display.  
MP3 group/track configuration  
• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.  
• 3-CD Changer is not compatible with ID3v2.

• Unfinalized discs cannot be played back.  
• “Packet Writing” discs cannot be played back.  
• If a disc is recorded with multiple sessions, only the first session  
can be played back. However if a session is not closed (not  
finalized), it cannot be played back.  
MP3 playback and search order  
• The numbers in circles below the MP3 tracks ( ) indicate  
the playback order and search order of the MP3 tracks.  
Normally 3-CD Changer plays back MP3 tracks in the  
recorded order.  
• The numbers inside the groups indicate the playback order  
and search order of the groups on an MP3 disc. Normally  
3-CD Changer plays back MP3 tracks in the groups in the  
recorded order.

Recording on a CD-R/CD-RW  
Connecting a microphone  
You can record your voice through MIC jack on the unit.  
When using a microphone, connect a microphone with a  
standard 6.3 mm plug.  
Before You Start Recording  
Before you start, remember...  
• Perform recording onto a CD-R AUDIO or CD-RW AUDIO  
disc (see page 3).  
Microphone (not supplied)  
• When you record onto a partially recorded unfinalized CD-R  
or CD-RW, its contents are not erased or overwritten. The  
recording starts from the point following the last recorded  
track of the disc.  
After connecting, turn on the microphone if it has the ON/OFF switch.  
For CD-RW only: If you want to record on such a CD-RW  
from the beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see  
“Erasing all tracks (only for CD-RW)—Disc Erase” on page  
36). (You cannot erase the contents recorded on a CD-R.)  
• You can record up to 99 tracks on a CD-R or CD-RW. When  
the data recordable memory area of a CD-R or CD-RW  
becomes full while recording, recording will stop  
automatically.  
• If PCA (Power Calibration Area) or PMA (Program Memory  
Area) of the disc is recorded fully, recording cannot be  
performed on this disc even though there are still unused  
memory spaces on it.  
• Before recording on a CD-R, it is recommended to make a  
test recording on a CD-RW.  
• You cannot perform digital-recording from the digitally  
recorded CD-R or CD-RW because only the first generation  
digital copy is allowed; This is to protect copyrights (see  
page 42).  
Finalization  
This is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW.  
“Finalizing a disc” means writing the TOC (Table of Contents)  
on the recorded disc.  
Only after this process is completed, a recorded CD-R or  
CD-RW can be played back on a CD player compatible with  
CD-R/CD-RW. It is also recommended to finalize a disc  
before playing back on this 3-CD Changer.  
CD-R : You cannot add any track after finalizing.  
CD-RW : You can add tracks after finalizing by unfinalizing  
the disc (see page 34).  
About track-marking  
Whenever you turn on the unit, auto track-marking is activated.  
(The AUTO TRACK indicator lights up on the display.)  
When auto track-marking is activated  
• Recording from 3-CD Changer (CD DIGITAL, CD ANALOG):  
Track marks are recorded automatically at the points where  
the tracks change.  
• Recording from an external component connected to the  
LINE IN and MIC jacks (LINE IN, MIC IN, CD+LINE MIX,  
CD+MIC MIX, LINE+MIC MIX):  
If there is a blank of 4 seconds or more, CD Recorder will  
consider it as a blank separating 2 tracks and  
consequently put a track mark.  
• Recording through the DIGITAL IN terminals (OPTICAL IN,  
COAXIAL IN):  
• CD Recorder automatically selects appropriate recording—either  
digital or analog—during CD Synchronized Recording.  
When digital source is selected as the playback sound, it will be  
recorded digitally if it is a first-generation digital copy (see page 42).  
If not, CD Recorder selects analog recording.  
• MP3 files cannot be recorded on this CD Recorder. If you are going  
to record MP3 files on CD Recorder, “CANNOT REC” appears on  
the display.  
• Before recording, finalizing, or adding track skip marks, make sure  
that all the disc trays are closed.You cannot open any disc tray  
while these operations are done.  
—If the playback source is an MD recorder, CD player or  
DAT deck, they are recorded automatically at the points  
where the tracks change.  
—If the playback source is other than above, this unit  
functions in the same way for recording an analog  
source.  
Available recording methods  
This CD Recorder provides a variety of the recording  
methods.  
You can select and use the following recording methods  
according to the playback source.  
To cancel auto track-marking and use manual track-marking,  
see “Recording track marks manually” on page 34.

Recording the entire disc without any interruption  
When recording from a disc to another disc, the contents of the original disc are duplicated usually track by track. This means  
if some sounds are recorded between the tracks, they will not be recorded on a newly duplicated disc.  
For example, when you play a live disc, you may hear audience clapping their hands; however, these sounds are usually  
recorded between the tracks so they cannot be recorded. If you want to record these sounds between the tracks on a newly  
duplicated disc, follow the procedure below.

Maintenance  
To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs and  
mechanism clean.  
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.  
General Notes  
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping  
your discs and the mechanism clean.  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or  
ballpoint pen, etc.  
• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on  
shelves.  
• Keep the disc trays closed when not in use.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit in the  
following cases:  
• After starting the heater.  
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.  
• When the unit is moved from the extremely hot place to the  
extremely cold place.  
• 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.  
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of  
the disc when placing it back in its  
case.  
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject  
the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the  
moisture evaporates.  
• DO NOT expose discs to direct sunlight or  
any heat source or place them in a place  
subject to high temperature and humidity.  
• DO NOT leave discs in a car.  
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,  
temperature extremes, and moisture.  
To clean the unit  
• Stains on the unit  
Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is heavily  
stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral  
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.  
• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become damaged  
or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the followings.  
—DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.  
To clean the disc  
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight  
line from center to edge.  
—DO NOT wipe it strong.  
—DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.  
—DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as  
insecticides to it.

Glossary  
OPC (Optimum Power Control)  
OPC is a function that checks the loaded disc and automatically adjusts the laser for optimum recording setting before  
recording.  
PCA (Power Calibration Area)  
A space reserved at the beginning of a CD-R/CD-RW for calibrating the laser output power required to record on that disc.  
PMA (Program Memory Area)  
A temporary memory area on a CD-R/CD-RW, where the information about the recordings on the disc—track numbers, tracks’  
start points and end points, etc. is stored until the disc is finalized.  
When the disc is finalized, this information is written in the TOC (see below).  
Sampling Frequency  
When analog signal are converted into digital signals, they are divided into many points and digitized. This dividing method is  
called “sampling.” The sampling frequency indicates how many points one second is divided into—for example, for CD sound,  
one second is divided into 44 100 points since its sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz.  
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)  
Digital audio components, such as CD recorder, MD (Mini-Disc) recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder, can exchange  
audio signal in the digital forms through digital input/output terminals. The digital audio components allow digital copy of music  
signal with little deterioration. This has made it necessary to have a copy restriction rule for protecting the copyright, and  
“SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)” has been established as a result.  
To protect the copyright, the SCMS allows only first-generation digital copies to be made from premastered software (like CDs  
or prerecorded MDs).

TOC (Table of Contents)  
TOC is a kind of disc information containing sub-data (track number, playing time, etc.) that enables us to search for tracks  
quickly on the disc.  
To write the TOC on a CD-R or CD-RW, you need to finalize the disc.
