Maintenance

How to clean the connectors

Frequent detachment will deteriorate the connectors.

To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened with alcohol, being careful not to damage the connectors.

Connector

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:

???After starting the heater in the car.

???If it becomes very humid inside the car. Should this occur, the CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

How to handle discs

???Always hold the disc by the

edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc into its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

???Make sure to store discs into the cases after use.

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

???Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Do not use the following discs:

Cet appareil est con??u pour fonctionner sur des sources de courant continu de 12 V ?? masse NEGATIVE. Si votre v??hicule n???offre pas ce type d???alimentation, il vous faut un convertisseur de tension, que vous pouvez acheter chez un revendeur d???autoradios JVC.

WARNINGS

To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery???s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.

???Be sure to ground this unit to the car???s chassis again after installation.

Notes:

???Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, 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 16 of the INSTRUCTIONS).

???To prevent short-circuit, cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape.

???The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.

ADVERTENCIAS

Para evitar cortocircuitos, recomendamos que desconecte el terminal negativo de la bater??a y que efect??e todas las conexiones el??ctricas antes de instalar la unidad.

???Aseg??rese de volver a conectar a masa esta unidad al chasis del autom??vil despu??s de la instalaci??n.

Notas:

???Reemplace el fusible por uno con la corriente especificada. Si el fusible se quemase frecuentemente consulte con su concesionario de JVC de equipos de audio para autom??viles.

???Se recomienda conectar los altavoces con una potencia m??xima de m??s de 50 W (tanto atr??s como adelante, con una impedancia de 4 ??? a 8 ???). Si la potencia m??xima es de menos de 50 W, cambie ???AMP GAIN??? para evitar da??os en los altavoces (consulte la p??gina 16 del MANUAL DE INSTRUCCIONES).

???Para evitar cortocircuitos, cubra los cables NO UTILIZADOS con cinta aislante.

???El sumidero t??rmico estar?? muy caliente despu??s del uso. Aseg??rese de no tocarlo al desmontar esta unidad.

AVERTISSEMENTS

Pour ??viter tout court-circuit, nous vous recommandons de d??brancher la borne n??gative de la batterie et d???effectuer tous les raccordements ??lectriques avant d???installer l???appareil.
