• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will
block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.
*
Temperature inside the car....
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or
cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car
becomes normal before operating the unit.
CONTENTS
Thank you for purchasing a JVC product. Please read all instructions carefully before operation,
to ensure your complete understanding and to obtain the best possible performance from the unit.
How to use the number buttons:
If you press MODE, the unit goes into functions mode and the number buttons work as different
function buttons.
To use these buttons as number buttons again after pressing MODE, wait for 5 seconds without
pressing any number button until the functions mode is cleared.
• Pressing MODE again also clears the functions mode.
