Introduction
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 System.
Precautions
Installation
• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat build-up in the System.
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.
• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with the TV.
Power sources
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the power cord.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:
• After starting to heat the room
• In a damp room
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm
place.
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the power cord, then plug it in again.
Internal heat
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the System.
Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the System.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.
• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult
your dealer.
Playable Disc/File Types
In addition to the above discs/files, this System can play
back audio data recorded on CD-Extra.
• The following discs cannot be played back:
DVD-RAM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), CD-ROM, Photo CD,
CD-G (CD-Graphics) and DVD/CD Text.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage
the speakers.
• In this manual, “file” and “track” are used interchangeably
for MP3/WMA/WAV/JPEG/MPEG-1/MPEG-2/DivX
operations.
• It is possible to play back finalized +R/+RW (DVD Video
format only) discs. “DVD” lights on the front display panel
when a +R/+RW disc is loaded.
• “DVD Logo” is a trademark of DVD Format/Logo
Licensing Corporation.
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 page 15.
DO NOT install the System in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
DO NOT handle the power cord with wet
hands.
DO NOT block the ventilation openings or
holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or
cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.
DO NOT disassemble the System since there
are no user serviceable parts inside.
• CD-R/-RW: Recorded in the Audio CD, Video CD, and
SVCD formats. MP3, WMA, WAV, JPEG, MPEG-1,
MPEG-2 and DivX files written in accordance with the
“ISO 9660” format can also be played.
• DVD-R/-RW, +R/+RW: Recorded in the DVD Video
format. MP3, WMA, WAV, JPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2
and DivX files written in the UDF-Bridge format can
also be played.
• DVD-R/-RW: Recorded in the DVD Video Recording
(VR) format.
• DVD-ROM: Recorded in the MP3, WMA, WAV,
JPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and DivX format.
• USB mass storage class device: MP3, WMA, WAV,

Note on Region Code
DVD players and DVD Video have their own Region Code
numbers. This System can play back only DVD Video with
an appropriate Region Code number.
• For details, see “Specifications” on page 39.
EX.: For Southeast Asia and Hong Kong region
Caution for DualDisc playback
The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with
the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the
use of the Non-DVD side of a DualDisc in this product may
not be recommended.
About multi-channel playback
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 OUT
terminal on the rear.
How to Read This Manual
• Button and control operations are explained in the table
below.
• Some related tips and notes are explained later in the

The connected subwoofer can reproduce the bass sounds
recorded in front left and right channels, but cannot
reproduce the LFE signals encoded in multi-channel
software.
• Before plugging the System to the power supply, make sure
that the powered subwoofer is turned off.
@TV/monitor
Connect the COMPONENT jacks, S-VIDEO jack, or
VIDEO jack; whichever you want to use.
• You can get better picture quality in the order of—
Composite video
] S-Video ] Component video.
• This connection allows you to use the progressive scanning
mode. To select progressive scanning mode (see page 15),
use COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.
• After connecting a TV, select the appropriate video signal
output according to the connection method. See “Changing
the Color System and Scanning Mode” on page 15.
• When connecting with a USB cable, use the USB 2.0 cable
whose length is less than 1 m.
• You can connect a USB mass storage class device such as a
USB flash memory device, hard disk drive, multimedia card
reader, etc. to this System.
• You cannot connect a computer to the USB MEMORY
terminal of the System.
• Do not connect the same digital audio player to both the
LINE IN and LINE OUT jacks at the same time; otherwise,
the sound will be distorted.
• If an external device is not equipped with a stereo mini plug
audio output, use a plug adapter to convert the stereo mini
plug to the corresponding plug of the audio output.
• By using QP Link (Quick Portable Link), you can easily
start playing back a digital audio player on this System. See
page 12 for details.
Preparing the remote control
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases,
replace both batteries.
When using the remote control
Point the top of the remote control towards the remote sensor
as directly as possible. If you operate it from a diagonal
position, the operating range (approx. 5 m) may be shorter.

Playing Back a Digital Audio Player
• For connecting a digital audio player, see page 5.
To listen to digital audio player
You can listen to the digital audio player connected to the
LINE IN jack.
• Make sure to turn down the volume on the System to
minimum level before starting playback.
To adjust the audio input level
If the sound from the device connected to the
LINE IN jack is too loud or too quiet, you can change the
audio input level through the LINE IN jack (without
changing the volume level).
While “LINE” is selected as a source...
• As the number of the level increases, the input level is
increased.
To activate QP Link
By using QP Link (Quick Portable Link), you can easily start
playing back a digital audio player connected to the LINE IN
jack.
• Make sure to set the volume of your digital audio player
loud enough so that the System can detect the sound signal.
When QP Link is activated, connecting a digital audio player
to the LINE IN jack and starting playback performs the
following:
• While the System is turned on...
Changes the source to “LINE” automatically. (If you
change from “LINE” to another source, QP Link will be
canceled.)
• While the System is on standby...
Turns on the System and automatically changes the source
to “LINE,” except when the display is turned off (see
page 7).
While QP Link is playing the device...
To record on a digital audio player
You can record the sound from the System to the digital
audio player connected to the LINE OUT jack.
1Start recording on the digital audio player.
2Start playing the disc, USB mass storage class device,
or tune in to the station you want to record.
• Before recording on a digital audio player, deactivate QP
Link or do not connect the digital audio player to the LINE
IN jack; otherwise, “LINE” will be selected as the source
and the recording will stop.
• Sound adjustments (see pages 13 and 14) do not affect
recording on the digital audio player.
To adjust the audio output level
If the recorded sound on the digital audio player connected
to the LINE OUT jack is too loud or too quiet, you can
change the audio output level through the LINE OUT jack
(without changing the volume level).
While “LINE” is selected as a source...
• As the number of the level increases, the output level is
increased.
