More about this unit

Turning on the power
By pressing SRC button on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.
When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated (with AF selected), NetworkTracking Reception is also activated automatically. On the other hand, NetworkTracking Reception cannot be deactivated without deactivating Alternative Frequency Reception. (See page 15.) If you want to know more about RDS, visit http://www.rds.org.uk.

Turning off the power

If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where playback has been stopped previously, next time you turn on the power.
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 NonDVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

Tuner operations

During SSM search. All previously stored stations are erased and stations are stored newly. Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency). When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be automatically tuned in. When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

General

This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/ CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA formats. When a disc had been loaded, selecting DISC for the playback source starts disc play.

Inserting a disc

When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc automatically ejects. Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CD) and unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into the loading slot.
Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of RDS signalsPI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate correctly. If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby Reception, the volume level automatically changes to the preset level (TA VOL) if the current level is lower than the preset level.

Playing a disc

While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.
EN16-23KD-G427[EE]f.indd 21

11/22/05 5:53:51 PM

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
Use only finalized CD-Rs or CD-RWs. This unit can play back only files of the same type which are first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/ WMA files. This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing. Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons: Discs are dirty or scratched. Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the unit. The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written with Packet Write method. There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.). CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs. Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck to the surface. Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidities may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc

This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter caseupper/lower). This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files. This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.
This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below: Bit rate: 8 kbps 320 kbps Sampling frequency: 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1) 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name The maximum number of characters for file/ folder names vary among the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters<.mp3> or <.wma>). ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters Romeo: up to 128 characters Joliet: up to 64 characters Windows long file name: up to 128 characters This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate). Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. Especially, after performing the search function, this difference becomes noticeable. This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, of 200 folders, and of 8 hierarchies. This unit cannot play back the following files: MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO format. MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. WMA files encoded with lossless, professional, and voice format. WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media Audio. WMA files copy-protected with DRM. Files which have the data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc. The search function works but search speed is not constant.

EN16-23KD-G427[EE]f.indd 22 11/22/05 5:53:51 PM

Changing the source

If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc). Next time you select DISC for the playback source, disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Notice:

When operating an iPod or a D. player, some operations may not be performed correctly or as intended. In this case, visit the following JVC web site: For iPod users: <http://www.jvc.co.jp/ english/car/support/ks-pd100/index.html> For D. player users: <http://www.jvc.co.jp/ english/car/support/ks-pd500/index.html>

Ejecting a disc

If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again into the loading slot to protect it from dust. (Disc will not play this time.)

WARNINGS
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the batterys negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit. Be sure to ground this unit to the cars chassis again after installation. Notes: Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer. It is recommended to connect to the speakers with maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 to 8 ). If the maximum power is less than 50 W, change AMP GAIN setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 16 of the INSTRUCTIONS). To prevent short-circuit, cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape. The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.
