JVC XL-MC334BK manual Precautions, Setting UP

PRECAUTIONS

Installation

•Select the best location

Select a level location to install this unit, where it is free from extremes of temperature (5 to 35°C, or 41 to 95°F) and humidity,

dust, or vibration.

If noise interference is caused when receiving AM broadcast by a tuner/receiver located nearby, relocate it or this unit, or turn off either one.

•Moving the unit

Before moving the unit, first remove all discs. Turn the power off, making sure the standby indicator is on. Then remove the AC power cord from the AC outlet.

Compact discs

• Use only compact digital audio discs

Only audio compact discs identified by the	'
logo on the right can be played back with the
unit.
Also the unit can display the text information
in CD text discs identified by the logo on the
right.

Operation

•Place only discs in the disc storage

Do not put anything other than discs in slots of the disc storage.

•Turn the power off if a problem occurs

If an unusual condition arises, turn the power off immediately. If the condition persists whenever the power is turned on, consult your JVC dealer.

•Do not pull the AC cord

Do not pull the cable when unplugging the AC cord from the AC outlet or this component — hold and pull the plug body.

•Set the sound volume carefully

Be careful in setting the sound volume on your amplifier/receiver when playing a CD, which has almost no background noise unlike analog records and tapes. Find the right setting by starting with a low level setting. Setting the level too high and then playing a CD could damage the speakers.

•Protect the unit against condensation

Condensation on the unit could disrupt the proper transmission of the disc-reading laser beam, causing noise or malfunction. If condensation occurs due to excessive humidity or sudden temperature change, leave the unit turned on for a couple of hours to dry — consult your JVC dealer if this does not correct the condition.

SETTING UP
