Load compact disc only
Never insert anything other than a compact disc into any part of the
player.
If a problem persists
If something goes wrong, turn off the power immediately. If the same
problem reoccurs when the power is turned on once more, turn off the
power again and consult your JVC dealer.
Handling the power cord
When unplugging from the wall socket, always pull the plug body,
never the power cable.
Volume settings
A CD player has almost zero background noise. Because of this, the
technique of listening to the background level and then setting the
volume before the music starts, as used with analog turntables or tape
decks, cannot be used. If you raise the volume level too high, speaker
damage may result.
Condensation
The CD player uses optical components. If it is moved from a cold
location to a warm one, or is used in a room subject to excessive
humidity or where a fire has just been lit, condensation could form on
the optical components.
This may prevent the laser beam from being properly transmitted and
thus causes noise or even a malfunction.
If condensation has formed and the CD player does not function
correctly, we recommend that you leave it turned on for an hour or two.
If at the end of this time the CD player still does not function properly,
please consult your JVC dealer.
Transporting the unit
When carrying this unit, it is best to avoid either tilting it or turning it
upside-down. Where you cannot avoid doing so, please remove the
disc first.
Using compact discs
Compact discs are made of plastic and can be easily damaged. If the
disc is dirty, scratched, warped or otherwise damaged, the digital
information may not be picked up correctly.
Applicable discs
This unit can only be used with compact discs bearing the mark below.
Never use discs of other types.
