room from a cold environment, wipe it off
using a soft dry cloth.

When storing discs

Avoid locations which are
• Exposed to direct sunlight.
• Susceptible to high levels of humidity or

dust.

appliance.

• On top of a car dashboard or near the

rear window.

Handling precautions

Troubleshooting Guide

Before requesting service for this unit, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem
you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the
problem and restore proper operation.
If you are in doubt about some of the check points, or if the remedies indicated in the chart do not
solve the problem, refer to the directory of Authorized Service Centers (enclosed with this unit) to
locate a convenient service center, or consult your dealer for instructions.

Carrying dry cell batteries /
rechargeable batteries around

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.
Be absolutely sure to carry the rechargeable batteries in the bat-
tery carrying case.

When purchasing rechargeable
batteries

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.

Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
BN-R122 (set of 2)

For details, check with your dealer.

Cautions

Rechargeable batteries

• Only the BN-R122 battery can be recharged.
• If the power delivered by the batteries lasts for a very short

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

• Recharging already charged batteries will shorten their service

life.

• 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.

• Do not peel off the plastic covering on the rechargeable batter-

ies. Short-circuiting may occur which is dangerous.

Dry cell batteries / rechargeable
batteries

To prevent damage to the batteries and electrolyte leakage, heed
the following points.
• Align the , and . polarities properly when inserting the bat-

teries.

• Do not mix different types or makes of batteries or old and

new batteries.

• 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.

ing.

AC adaptor

• Handle the AC adaptor carefully. Improper handling is dan-

gerous.

• 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 with the unit.
• Disconnect the AC adaptor from the power outlet if the unit is

not going to be used for a long time.

Do not leave the unit exposed to direct sunlight for
long periods of time

This may deform or discolor the cabinet and may also cause mal-
functioning.

Precautions for Listening with the
Headphones

• Do not play your headphones at a high volume. Hearing ex-

perts advise against continuous extended play.

• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or dis-

continue use.

traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
