Importants

· Video tapes recorded with this Player in the LP (Long Play)

or EP (Extended Play) mode cannot be played back on a

single-speed video recorder.

· It may be unlawful to record or playback copyrighted material

without the consent of the copyright owner.

Beware of moisture condensation

Moisture in the air will condense on the recorder when you move

it from a cold place to a warm place, or under extremely humid

conditions -- just as water droplets form on the surface of a

glass filled with cold liquid. Moisture condensation on the head

drum will cause damage to the tape. In conditions where

condensation may occur, keep the recorder's power turned on

for a few hours to let the moisture dry.

Accumulation of dirt and other particles on the video heads may

cause the playback picture to become blurred or interrupted.

Although this model is equipped with a built-in head cleaner

which automatically cleans the heads, reducing the likelihood of

dirty heads, if such troubles are encountered please consult the

nearest JVC dealer.

Auto Head Cleaner

A built-in head cleaner automatically cleans the video heads

and head drum whenever a tape is loaded or unloaded to

reduce head clogging.

ATTENTION:

This Player contains microcomputers. External electronic

noise or interference could cause malfunctioning. In such

cases, switch the power off and unplug the power cord.

Then plug it in again and switch on. Take out the cassette.

After checking the cassette, operate the unit as usual.

Special note on head cleaning

Precautions

General Information

Care and handling of compact discs

How to handle CDs

When handling a compact disc, do not touch the surface of the

disc (reflective silver side the side without the label).

Since compact discs are made of plastic, they are easily

damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the

sound will not be picked up correctly and, in addition, such a disc

may cause the CD player to malfunction.

Even on label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive

on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled

one on top of another without their protective cases, they can be

damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be

exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or

temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe it

with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.

If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with

water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-

static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled.

This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to

industry standards.)

These symptom are caused by the discs, not by the malfunc-

tion of the Player.

Which compact discs can be used?

Many types of compact discs are sold for a variety of uses. The

Video CD Player can play the following compact discs:

· Video CD

for audio and video (moving picture) repro-

duction, including multiplex sound.

· Video CD with Playback Control function

featuring menu-type operation and super-

fine still pictures for audio and video (moving

picture) reproduction, including multiplex

sound.

· CD Graphics (CD-G)

for audio and video (still picture) reproduc-

tion, including multiplex sound.

· Digital Audio CD, including single discs

for audio reproduction.

CDs you can't play back

Do not play back CD-ROMs on this equipment. Doing so may

generate a noise which can damage your speakers.

Using the remote control

The remote control is ready to use when its batteries are

installed properly.

To use it, point its infrared light-emitting window toward the

display window of the player and press a button. The operating

range of the remote control is up to about seven meters in front

of the player and within about 30 degrees to each side with

nothing between the remote control and the player interrupting

the beam path.

If pressing a button on the remote control does not produce any

response, check to make sure it is pointed correctly and try

again. If it still does not function, check the batteries.
