Precautions
Introduction
IMPORTANT: Before playing a disc/file, make sure of the
following...
• Turn on the TV and select an appropriate input mode on
the TV to view the pictures or on-screen displays.
• For disc/file playback, you can change the initial setting
to your preference. Refer to “Setup Menu” in “Operating
Guide.”
If “
” appears on the TV screen when you press a button,
the disc/file cannot perform the operation you have tried
to do.
• When playing a multi-channel encoded software, the
System properly converts the multi-channel signals into
2 channels, and emits the downmixed sound from the
speakers. To enjoy the powerful sound of these multi-
channel encoded software, connect a proper decoder or an
amplifier with a proper built-in decoder to the OPTICAL
DIGITAL OUTPUT terminal on the rear.
About color system
This System accommodates both NTSC and PAL system and
can play back discs/files recorded in either system.
To change the color system, see “Preparations.”
Note on Region Code
DVD players and DVDs have their own Region Code
numbers. This System can play back only DVDs with an
appropriate Region Code number.
• For details, see “Specifications.”
• “REGION ERR” appears if DVD with a wrong Region Code
is loaded.
Ex.: For Southeast Asia

Connections
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other
terminals, connecting cords or the power cord. Also, keep
the antennas away from metallic parts of the System,
connecting cords, and the power cord. These could cause
poor reception.
• Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as
indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the
System.
• The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color
distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly,
it may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the
following when installing the speakers.
– When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the
TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s
main power switch again.
– Some TVs may still be affected even though you have
followed the above instructions. If this happens, move
the speakers away from the TV.
• You cannot connect a computer and JVC Everio camcorder
to the USB terminals of the System.
• Noise and static electricity may stop the USB device sound.
In this case, disconnect and connect the USB device again
after turning off the System.
Preparations
To change the color system and scanning mode:
• You cannot change the scanning mode to progressive in the
following cases:
– When your TV does not support the progressive video
input.
– When you have not connected your TV to the System
using a component video cord or an HDMI cable.
Basic Operations
Setting the ECO (Ecology) Mode:
• If you turn on the Daily Timer or the Recording Timer (for
NX-D7) while the ECO mode is activated, the ECO mode
is canceled.
Listening to a Disc/USB Device
JVC bears no responsibility for any loss of data in the USB
mass storage class device while using this System.
• When connecting with a USB cable, use the USB 2.0 cable
whose length is less than 1 m.
• You can connect a USB device such as a USB flash memory
device, hard disk drive, multimedia card reader, etc. to this
System.
• When you change the source to “DVD/CD” or “USB,” it
may take a while to activate the source.
• While the System is reading a disc, the source may not
change to “USB1” or “USB2” properly. In this case, press
7
,
then change the source to “USB1” or “USB2.”
• On some discs, the actual operations may be different from
what is explained in this manual due to the programming
and disc structure; such differences are not a malfunction
of this System.
• The total number of tracks (files) that the System can detect
is 4 000 for “DVD/CD” and “USB1,” and 2 000 for “USB2”.
• The System recognizes up to...
– 999 tracks (files) per group.
– 99 groups per disc, “USB 1” (for NX-D7), and “USB” (for
NX-D5/NX-D3/NX-DC3).
– 999 groups per “USB 2.”
Unplayable files are also counted in the total file number.
Playable files which do not belong to any groups are
recognized as files of group 1.
Program Play/Random Play/Group Play:
• Program is cleared in the following cases:
– When the System is turned off (standby).
– For USB2 (NX-D7), when the source is changed to USB1.
• While programming steps...
– Your entry will be ignored if you have tried to program
an item number that does not exist (for example,
selecting track 14 on a disc that only has 12 tracks).
– For MP3/WMA/WAV files, you can program up to 99
files.
– You cannot select the 151st or later tracks.
Playing Repeatedly:
• A-B Repeat cannot be used for MP3/WMA/WAV/JPEG/
MPEG-1/MPEG-2/ASF/DivX files and some DVDs.
To select the audio track:
• On some discs/files, you cannot change audio language
during playback.

LANGUAGE,” “AUDIO LANGUAGE,” or “SUBTITLE” is
not recorded, the original language is used as the initial
language.
PICTURE menu—MONITOR TYPE:
• Even if “4:3 PS,” “4:3 MULTI PS” is selected, the screen
size may become 4:3 letter box while playing a disc/file.
This depends on how the discs are recorded.
• When you select “16:9 NORMAL,” “16:9 MULTI
NORMAL” or “16:9 AUTO,” “16:9 MULTI AUTO” for
a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture changes
slightly due to the process of converting the picture width.
OTHERS menu—ON SCREEN GUIDE:

recorded) even if this function is set to “OFF.” Subtitles
and the information for zoom-in always appear on the
display regardless of this setting.

• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If
this happens, reset the clock.
Setting the Daily Timer:
• If you do not specify the preset station or track number
correctly while setting a timer, the currently selected
station or the first track will be played when the timer is
activated.
• When you unplug the power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the
clock first, then the timer again.
• If you set DVD Video as the source, Daily Timer will not
work correctly.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing
the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.
Listening to the Radio
