Installation
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio com-
munications. However, there is no guarantee that interfer-
ꢀ Environment

ing conditions…
• immediately after a heater has been turned on.
• in a steamy or very humid room.
• when the unit is suddenly moved from a cold environment
to a warm one. If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not
operate properly. To correct this problem wait about one
hour for the moisture to evaporate.
CAUTION!
USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE
OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN

ence will not occur in
a
particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and re-
ceiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
ꢀ Placement
1. Foreign Material - Care should be taken so that objects do not
fall into and liquids are not spilled into the unit. Do not subject
this unit to excessive smoke, dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.
2. Magnetism - The unit should be situated away from equipment
or devices that generate strong magnetic fields.
Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equip-
ment would void the user’s authority to operate this device.
3. Stacking - Do not place any objects on top of the unit.
1. CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
2. DANGER: Invisible laser radiation when open and
interlock failed or defeated. Avoid direct exposure to
beam.
3. CAUTION: Do not open the top cover. There are no
user serviceable parts inside the Unit; leave all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
CAUTION:
•
Do not block the ventilation opening or holes. (If the ventilation
openings of holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the
heat may not be able to get out.)
•
•
Do not place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
on the apparatus.
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be con-
sidered and local rules or laws governing the disposal of these
batteries must be followed strictly.
•
Do not expose this apparatus to rain, moisture, dripping or splashing
and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed

batteries
When purchasing AC adaptor
(Except the U.S.A.)
Be absolutely sure to purchase the AC adaptor designed espe-
cially for this unit.
To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed
the following points.
EST. 1924
S
O
• Align the , and . polarities properly when inserting the bat-
teries.
• Do not mix different types or makers of batteries or old and
new batteries.
AC adaptor: AA-R4513 (for Canada)
AA-R4516 (for multi voltage area)
For details, check with your dealer.
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the unit for a
long period of time.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire, and do not short-circuit, dis-
assemble or subject them to excessive heat.
• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discon-
tinue use.
When purchasing AC plug adaptor
(for multi voltage area)
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
Be absolutely sure to purchase the AC plug adaptor designed es-
pecially for this unit.
Carrying dry cell batteries /
rechargeable batteries around
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
AC plug adaptor: QAM0060-001
For details, check with your dealer.
Even if your headphones or earphones are an open-air type de-
signed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume
so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
When putting dry cell or rechargeable batteries in a pocket or
bag, ensure that no other metal objects such as a necklace are
placed together with them. Contact with metal may cause short-
circuiting which, in turn, may cause a fire.
When purchasing rechargeable
batteries
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level”
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BE-
FORE your hearing adapts.
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made by JVC
have a construction designed to make it impossible to recharge
ordinary batteries.
To use rechargeable batteries, be absolutely sure to purchase the
rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries designed especially for this unit.
AC adaptor
• Handle the AC adaptor carefully. Improper handling is dan-
gerous.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
BN-R1211J (set of 2) (for the U.S.A. and Canada)
BN-R1211 (set of 2) (for other area)
For details, check with your dealer.
• Do not touch it with wet hands.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of it.
• Do not forcibly bend it.
• Be sure to connect only the AC adaptor provided (for the
U.S.A. only) with the unit.
• Disconnect the AC adaptor from the power outlet if the unit is
not going to be used for a long time.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.

time after recharging, it means that the batteries’ service life is
over. Do not use them any more.

Locations to be avoided
Avoid using the unit in the following locations since they can
cause malfunctioning.

2. Warehouses and other dusty places
3. Very hot places near heating appliances, etc.
Do not leave the unit exposed to direct sunlight for

life.
INFORMATION (For Canada)
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for
radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the
interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital
Apparatus”, ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.
• When recharging batteries for the first time or when they have
not been used for a long period of time, the play time may be
shorter than usual. In a case like this, repeatedly recharge and
discharge the batteries. This will restore them to their regular
state.
• Do not allow any metal objects to touch the terminals of re-
chargeable batteries since this may cause short-circuiting which
is dangerous.

This may deform or discolor the cabinet and may also cause mal-
functioning.
• Do not peel off the plastic covering on the rechargeable batter-
ies. Short-circuiting may occur which is dangerous.
