CD CHANGER OPERATIONS

ENGLISH

We recommend that you use the JVC MP3- compatible CD changer with your unit.

By using this CD changer, you can play back your original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format or in MP3 format.

You can also connect other CH-X series CD changers (except CH-X99 and CH-X100). However, they are not compatible with MP3 discs, so you cannot play back MP3 discs.

You cannot use the KD-MK series CD changers with this unit.

Before operating your CD changer:

Refer also to the Instructions supplied for your CD changer.

If no discs are in the magazine of the CD changer or the discs are inserted upside down, “NO DISC” will appear on the display. If this happens, remove the magazine and set the discs correctly.

If no magazine is loaded in the CD changer, “NO MAG” appears on the display. If this happens, insert the magazine in the CD changer.

If “RESET 1” – “RESET 8” appears on the display, something is wrong with the connection between this unit and the CD changer. If this happens, check the connection and make sure the cords are connected firmly. Then, press the reset button of the CD changer.

About MP3 discs

MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in “folders—in PC terminology.

During recording, the files and folders can be arranged in a way similar to arranging files and folders of computer data.

Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file and folder can be linked to and be accessed from the root.
