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.

Ejecting a disc
If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted
again into the loading slot to protect it from
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
Tape operations
Playing a tape
While locating a specified tune:
If the tape is rewound to its beginning,
playback starts from the beginning of that
side.
If the tape is fast-forwarded to the end, it is
reversed and played from the beginning of
the other side.
In the following cases, Multi Music Scan
(MMS), Blank Skip, and Repeat Play may not
operate correctly:
Tapes with tunes having long pianissimo
passages (very quiet parts) or non-recorded
portions.
Tapes with short non-recorded sections.
Tapes with high level noise or humming
between tunes.
The Dolby NR setting does not match. For
example, if the tape is recorded with the
Dolby C NR.
Do not use the following tape:
Dirty or dusty tapes.
Cassette with peeling labels.
Loose tape which may become entangled
with the mechanism.
General settingsPSM
If you change the TAG DISP setting from
TAG OFF to TAG ON while playing
MP3/WMA file, the tag display will be
activated when the next file starts playing.
If you change the AMP GAIN setting
from HIGH PWR to LOW PWR
while the volume level is set higher than
VOLUME 30, the unit automatically
changes the volume level to VOLUME 30.

In some case, depending of the type and the model of your car, it is not possible to install the
unit into the center console.
If you have any questions or require information regarding installation kits, consult your
JVC car audio dealer or a company supplying kits.
If you are not sure how to install this unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the batterys negative terminal and
make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
Be sure to ground this unit to the cars chassis again after installation.

JVC
...
Notes:
Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your
JVC car audio dealer.
If noise is a problem...
This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. However, with some vehicles, clicking
or other unwanted noise may occur. If this happens, connect the units rear ground terminal
to the cars chassis using shorter and thicker cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If
noise still persists, 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 21 of the INSTRUCTIONS).
The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.

interchangeably) are recorded in folders.
This unit has been designed to reproduce
CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/
CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA),
MP3 and WMA format.
When a disc has been loaded, selecting CD
for the playback source starts disc play.

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.
Playing a disc
While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3
or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent
sounds.

Ejecting a disc
If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted
again into the loading slot to protect it from
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
Tape operations
Playing a tape
While locating a specified tune:
If the tape is rewound to its beginning,
playback starts from the beginning of that
side.
If the tape is fast-forwarded to the end, it is
reversed and played from the beginning of
the other side.
In the following cases, Multi Music Scan
(MMS), Blank Skip, and Repeat Play may not
operate correctly:
Tapes with tunes having long pianissimo
passages (very quiet parts) or non-recorded
portions.
Tapes with short non-recorded sections.
Tapes with high level noise or humming
between tunes.
The Dolby NR setting does not match. For
example, if the tape is recorded with the
Dolby C NR.
Do not use the following tape:
Dirty or dusty tapes.
Cassette with peeling labels.
Loose tape which may become entangled
with the mechanism.
General settingsPSM
If you change the TAG DISP setting from
TAG OFF to TAG ON while playing
MP3/WMA file, the tag display will be
activated when the next file starts playing.
If you change the AMP GAIN setting
from HIGH PWR to LOW PWR
while the volume level is set higher than
VOLUME 30, the unit automatically
changes the volume level to VOLUME 30.

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.
The following illustration shows a typical installation. However, you should make adjustments
corresponding to your specific car. In this case consult the manual included with the installation
kit (option).
In some case, depending of the type and the model of your car, it is not possible to install the
unit into the center console.
If you have any questions or require information regarding installation kits, consult your
JVC car audio dealer or a company supplying kits.
If you are not sure how to install this unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.
When mounting the unit, be sure to use the screws provided, as instructed. If other screws are
used, there is a possibility that parts could become loose or damaged.
When tightening screws or bolts be careful not to pinch any connection cord.

Note: Be sure to keep all the screws and parts removed from your car for future use.
Attach the mounting brackets (removed from the car), to this unit (see below).
Fix this unit to the car using the screws removed in step 1.
See Caution below.
The following example shown is for installation in a Toyota. For more details, consult

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the batterys negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
Be sure to ground this unit to the cars chassis again after installation.
Rear view
Notes:
Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.
Heat sink
If noise is a problem...
This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. However, with some vehicles, clicking or other unwanted noise may occur. If this happens, connect the units rear ground terminal to the
cars chassis using shorter and thicker cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If noise still persists, 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 21 of the INSTRUCTIONS).
The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.
Typical Connections
Before connecting: Check the wiring in the vehicle carefully. Incorrect connection may cause serious damage to this unit.
