Operating JVC’s Audio/Video Components

You can operate JVC’s audio and video components with this receiver’s remote control, since control signals for JVC components are preset in the remote control.

IMPORTANT:

To operate JVC’s audio components using this remote control:

•You need to connect JVC audio components through the COMPU LINK-3 (SYNCHRO) jacks (see page 39) in addition to the connections using cables with RCA pin plugs (see pages 5 and 6).

•Aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.

•If you use the buttons on the front panel or the menu function to choose a source, the remote control will not operate that source. To operate a source with the remote control, the source must be selected using source selecting buttons on the remote control.

•To operate the cassette deck or MD recorder using the COMPU LINK remote control system, set the source name correctly. (See page 12.)

•Refer also to the manuals supplied with your components.
