version 2.0 disc formats. PBC allows you to interact  
with the system via menus, search functions, or other

CDs.  
Disc-related terms  
DVD R / DVD RW  
DVD -R and DVD +R are two different standards for  
recordable DVD drives and discs. This format allows  
information to be recorded onto the DVD disc only  
once. DVD +RW and DVD -RW are two standards for  
re-writable media, meaning the DVD content can be  
erased and re-recorded. Single-sided discs can hold  
4.38 Gigabytes and double-sided discs hold twice as  
much. There are no dual layer single sided recordable  
discs.  
Title (DVD video discs only)

example the main feature could be title 1, a documen-  
tary describing how the film was made could be title 2,  
and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title is  
assigned a reference number enabling you to locate it  
easily.

VCD and provides for multichannel surround sound  
coding such as PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG  
audio.

composed of one or several tracks.

audio files that yields very high near-CD quality.

to locate the track you want. DVD discs allow one  
track of video (with multiple angles) and several tracks  
of audio.

and the sound is clear.  
To make tuning TV stations, please follow stages  
3 to 4 as shown "ACMS" (see p.14).  
If you have used a SCART or AUDIO and VIDEO

If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of han-  
dling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice  
is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz  
signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.  
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96  
kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made,  
this unit passes each type of signal through without  
any further processing.  
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify  
its capabilities.

Dynamic Range Control (DRC)  
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s  
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presen-  
tation possible, thanks to digital audio technology.  
However, you may wish to compress the dynamic  
range of the audio output (the difference between the  
loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows  
you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without  
losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.  
Vocal DVD  
Set to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is  
playing. The karaoke channels on the disc mix into  
normal stereo sound.

Notes:  
Programme Delivery Control (PDC)  
The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) system adjusts  
the start and end times of a timer record event. This can  
be particularly useful with sports events which may run  
over into extra time. The PDC signal is transmitted by  
the broadcaster and this controls your video recorder’s  
timer. Currently only a limited number of TV companies  
transmit PDC signals. Please make sure that when  
recording from channels that do not broadcast PDC that  
you turn PDC OFF.

Precautions  
When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventila-  
tion (10 cm or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).  
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws governing the disposal of  
these batteries must be followed strictly.  
Failure to heed the following precautions may result in damage to the unit, remote control or disc.  
1. DO NOT place the unit —  
— in an environment prone to extreme temperatures or humidity.  
— in direct sunlight.  
— in a dusty environment.  
— in an environment where strong magnetic fields are generated.  
— on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.  
2. DO NOT block the unit’s ventilation openings or holes.  
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.)  
3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the unit or remote control.  
4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of the unit or remote control.  
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)  
5. DO NOT expose the apparatus to dripping or splashing.  
6. DO NOT use this equipment in a bathroom or places with water. Also DO NOT place any containers filled with water  
or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.) on top of this unit.  
7. DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the apparatus.  
8. AVOID violent shocks to the unit during transport.  
IMPORTANT  
Connection to the mains supply in the United Kingdom.  
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment.  
If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain  
an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer.  
In the unlikely event of the plug fuse failing be sure to replace the fuse only with an identical approved type, as  
originally fitted, and to replace the fuse cover. If the fuse fails again consult your nearest JVC dealer.  
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock  
hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.  
If this product is not supplied fitted with a mains plug then follow the instructions given below:  
DO NOT make any connection to the Larger Terminal coded E or Green.  
Blue to N (Neutral) or Black  
Brown to L (Live) or Red  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:  
If these colours do not correspond with the terminal identifications of your plug, connect as follows:  
Blue wire to terminal coded N (Neutral) or coloured Black.  
Brown wire to terminal coded L (Live) or coloured Red.  
If in doubt — consult a competent electrician.  
Some Do's And Don'ts On The Safe Use Of Equipment  
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical  
equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.  
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.  
DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of  
equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains  
plug when making or changing connections.  
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.  
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.  
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way—  
switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.  
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.  
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended  
operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family knows how to  
do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.  
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of road safety. It is  
illegal to watch television whilst driving.  
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing.  
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings. Overheating will cause damage  
and shorten the life of the equipment.  
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws—to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s  
approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.  
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.  
ABOVE ALL...  
NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case—this could result in  
a fatal electrical shock;  
NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind—it is better to be safe than sorry!
