ENGLISH

We recommend that you use the JVC MP3-

compatible CD changer with your unit.

Playback starts from the first folder of the

current disc once file check is completed.

By using this CD changer, you can play back your

original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs

(Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format

or in MP3 format.

• You can also connect other CH-X series CD

changers (except CH-X99 and CH-X100).

However, they are not compatible with MP3

discs, so you cannot play back MP3 discs.

• You cannot use the KD-MK series CD changers

with this unit.

Before operating your CD changer:

• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with

your CD changer.

• If no discs are in the magazine of the CD

changer or the discs are inserted upside down,

“NO DISC” will appear on the display. If this

happens, remove the magazine and set the

discs correctly.

• If no magazine is loaded in the CD changer,

“NO MAG” appears on the display. If this

happens, insert the magazine in the CD

changer.

• If “RESET 1” – “RESET 8” appears on the

display, something is wrong with the connection

between this unit and the CD changer. If this

happens, check the connection and make
