CAUTION
• The operating temperature of this product is 5°C to
35°C. Use in temperatures outside this range may
cause a malfunction or damage the product.
Under the following conditions, you may not be
able to operate this product properly due to con-
densation formed on the lens of the main unit:
• When you have just started an air conditioner to
warm your room
• When you have placed the main unit at an area
with high humidity

• Do not wipe the operation panel with thinners, ben-
zenes or other chemical agents. Do not spray
insecticides onto the operation panel. These may
cause discoloration and damage to the surface.
When using headphones, keep the volume at a
moderate level so as not to over-stimulate your
ears.
■When enjoying sound from the speakers,
adjust the volume to a suitable level to
avoid disturbing your neighbors.
Even low-volume sound carries a long way,
especially at night. Show consideration to
your neighbors by closing windows or using
headphones.

Introduction English
• Discs should be finalized before being played back.
1 Among MP3/WMA/JPEG discs, only discs formatted
with ISO 9660 (known as UDF Bridge) are playable.
2 Only when a DVD-RW is compatible with CPRM
(Content Protection for Recordable Media), DVD VR
format can be used.
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.
Some discs may not be played back because of their disc
characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stains
on them.
Only sounds can be played back from the following discs:
MIX-MODE CD CD-G
CD-EXTRA CD TEXT
Region code of DVD VIDEO
DVD players and DVD VIDEOs have their own
region code numbers. This product can only play
back a DVD VIDEO recorded with the region code
number "3" (or any region code number that
includes "3") or "ALL".
If a DVD VIDEO with an improper region code
number is loaded, "REGION CODE ERROR!"
appears on the TV screen and playback cannot
start.
• On some DVD VIDEOs, DVD AUDIOs, VCDs or
SVCDs, their actual operation may be differ-
ent from what is explained in this manual.
This is due to the disc programming and disc
structure, not a malfunction of this product.
Discs you can play back:
• Playback is impossible in some cases
due to the disc characteristics, recording
condition, scratches or dirt on the disc, or
dirt or condensation on the lens.
• Before using a disc, carefully read the
cautions regarding the disc.
• This product does not support playback
or CD text display of sound files such as
MP3s.
• To play back a CD-RW or DVD-RW on
this product, erase all tracks if the CD-
RW or DVD-RW was recorded in a format
other than the format described on the
left. Using the CD-RW or DVD-RW with-
out erasing all tracks may result in dam-
age to the speakers or other parts caused
by sudden loud volume.
Discs that cannot be played back
• The following discs cannot be played back:
DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, DVD-RAM, Photo CD,
SACD, etc.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and
damage the speakers.
• Damaged discs and discs in an extraordinary
shape (other than a disc of 12 cm or 8 cm in
diameter) cannot be played back.
• JVC do not guarantee the operation and sound
quality of discs not authorized by CD-DA, which
is a CD specification.
Before playback, confirm that the disc complies
with this CD specification by checking the marks
and reading notes printed on the package.

Notes on Operation
About MP3/WMA/JPEG discs
Playable MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• CDs recorded in the ISO 9660 format are play-
able (except CDs recorded in the "packet write"
format (UDF format)).
• CDs recorded in the multi-session format are
also playable.
• Files with an extension of ".mp3", ".wma", ".jpg"
or ".jpeg" (extensions with uppercase and lower-
case letters mixed are also acceptable) are play-
able.
• This product cannot play back DVDs recorded in
multi-session or multi-border format.
Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG discs and files
• A disc may not be played back, or reading it may
take a long time depending on its recording con-
ditions or properties.
• The time needed for reading varies with the num-
ber of groups or tracks (files) recorded on the disc.
• If a character other than single byte English
characters is used in the file name of an MP3/
WMA/JPEG file, the track/file name will not be
displayed correctly.
• The order of tracks/groups displayed on the
MP3/WMA Control screen, and the order of files/
groups displayed on the JPEG Control screen
may be different from that of files/folders dis-
played on a computer monitor screen.
• In the case of MP3/WMA discs, since groups/
tracks are played back in alphabetical order, a
commercially available MP3/WMA disc may be
played back in an order different from that indi-
cated on the label attached to the disc.
• Playing back an MP3 file including a still image
may take a long time. The elapsed time is not
displayed until playing back starts. If playing
back starts, the elapsed time may not be dis-
played correctly.
• For an MP3 file, a disc with a sampling frequency
of 44.1 kHz and transmission rate of 128 kbps is
recommended.
• This product is not compatible with MP3i or
MP3PRO.
• This product can play back a baseline JPEG file,
excluding monochromatic JPEG files.
• This product can play back JPEG data taken with a
digital camera conforming to the DCF (Design
Rule for Camera File System) standard (when a
function such as the automatic image rotation
function of a digital camera is applied, the data no
longer complies with the DCF standard, so the
image may not be displayed).
• If data has been processed, edited and restored
with PC image editing software, the data may
not be displayed.
• This product cannot play back animations such
as MOTION JPEG, still pictures (TIFF etc.) other
than JPEG, or image data with sound.
• The resolution of 640 x 480 pixels is recom-
mended for JPEG files. If a file has been
recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480
pixels, display may take a long time. An image
with a resolution of more than 8 192 x 7 680 pix-
els cannot be displayed.
DVD VIDEO
A DVD VIDEO consists of "titles" and each title
may be divided into "chapters".
DVD AUDIO
A DVD AUDIO consists of "groups" and each
group may be divided into "tracks".
Some discs include a "bonus group" that requires
a password for playing ( page 31).
VCD/SVCD/CD
VCD, SVCD and CD consist of "tracks".
In general, each track has its own track number.
(On some discs, each track may also be further
divided by indexes.)
MP3/WMA [JPEG] discs
On an MP3/WMA [JPEG] disc, each still picture
(material) is recorded as a track [file]. Tracks
[Files] are usually grouped into a folder. Folders
can also include other folders, creating hierarchical
folder layers.
This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of
a disc and manages folders by "groups".
This product can recognize up to 4 000 tracks
[files] in a disc. Also, the product can recognize up
to 150 tracks [files] per group and up to 99 groups
in a disc. Since the unit ignores tracks [files] with
numbers exceeding 150 and groups with numbers
exceeding 99, these cannot be played back.
• If there is any type of files other than MP3/WMA
[JPEG] files in a disc, those tracks [files] are also
counted in the total file number.
