PRECAUTIONS  
SETTING UP  
Installation  
Connecting the unit  
• Select the best location  
This compact disc changer/player needs to be connected to an  
amplifier/receiver for audio reproduction.  
Select a level location to install this component, where it is free  
from extremes of temperature (5 to 35°C, or 41 to 95°F) and  
humidity, dust, or vibration.  
If noise interference is caused in receiving AM broadcast by a  
tuner/receiver located nearby, relocate it or this component, or  
turn off either one.  
CAUTION  
Do not connect the AC power cord until all other neces-  
sary connections have been made.  
1. First connect the OUTPUT ports in the back of this unit with  
the CD or AUX input ports of the amplifier/receiver using the  
accessory audio cord. Be sure to insert the audio cord jacks  
firmly into the proper ports matching the output and input  
channels — RIGHT to RIGHT and LEFT to LEFT.  
• Moving the unit  
Before moving the unit, first remove all the discs. Turn the power  
off, making sure the standby indicator is on. Then remove the  
AC power cord from the AC outlet.  
Compact discs  
• Use only compact digital audio discs  
Only the audio compact discs identified by  
the logo shown below can be used with this  
Audio cord

Operation  
• Keep the disc storage free of obstacles  
2. If you are connecting the unit to a JVC audio component and  
using the CompuLink-3 remote control system, connect the units  
with the accessory CompuLink cord. Either one of the  
COMPULINK-3 (SYNCHRO) ports in the back of this unit  
can be used.  
Do not put anything other than discs in slots of the disc storage.  
• Turn the power off if a problem occurs  
If an unusual condition arises, turn the power off immediately. If  
the condition persists whenever the power is turned on, consult  
your JVC dealer.  
CompuLink cord  
OUTPUT  
COMPULINK-3  
(SYNCHRO)  
• Do not pull the AC cord  
LEFT  
Do not pull the cable when unplugging the AC cord from the  
wall socket or this component — hold and pull the plug body.  
RIGHT  
• Set the sound volume carefully  
To CompuLink jack  
Be careful in setting the sound volume on your amplifier/receiver  
when playing a CD, which has almost none of background noise  
unlike analog records and tapes. Find out the right setting starting  
with a low level setting. Setting the level too high and starting a  
CD could damage the speakers.  
When you use the system, you can remote-control this CD unit  
from the connected JVC amplifier/receiver. (See Page 11 for  
more information.)  
• Protect the component against condensation  
Condensation on the component could disrupt the proper  
transmission of the disc-reading laser beam, causing noise or  
malfunction. If condensation ever ensues due to excessive  
humidity or sudden temperature change, leave the component  
turned on for a couple of hours to dry up — consult your JVC  
dealer if this does not correct the condition.  
NOTE: JVC components equipped with two COMPULINK-3  
(SYNCHRO) ports can be connected in series; a com-  
ponent with only one port may be connected at the  
end of the series.

3. Connect the accessory AC power cord into the socket in the  
back of this unit. Then insert the cord plugs into an AC outlet.  
(Do not connect the power cord to a switched AC outlet of a  
component if the CompuLink system is used.)  
Installing batteries in the remote  
control  
1. There is a cover for the  
battery compartment on  
the back of the remote  
control. Press the cover  
down and slide it downward  
to remove it.  
AC POWER CORD  
2. Set the two accessory  
batteries (1.5V, R6P, AA) in  
the compartment with their  
polarities in proper positions.  
AC power cord  
Wall outlet  
3. Place the cover over the  
compartment, press it  
down, and slide it upward  
so that it firmly covers the  
compartment.  
CAUTION  
• Install the batteries with their polarities correctly set.  
• Remove the batteries if the remote control is not  
going to be used for an extended period of time.  
• Do not expose the remote control to heat, flame, or  
direct sunlight.  
Replacing the batteries  
The service life of batteries normally lasts for about one year though  
it is dependent on the use of the remote control (it is shortened in  
low temperatures, too). Replace the batteries any time if the  
controllable range is reduced (max. range: 7 meters or 23 feet and  
30 degrees away from the component).  
CAUTION  
• Be sure to replace them with the correct batteries (1.5V,  
R6P, AA).  
• Do not use new and old batteries in combination.
