POINTS TO Observe for safe usage

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER

Attempts to disassemble or alter may lead to an accident, fire and/or electric shock.

KEEP SMALL ARTICLES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHIL DREN

Store small articles (screws, etc.) in places not accessible to children. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSES

Replace fuses only with fuses of the same ampere rating. Failure to do so may result in a fire and/or damage to the vehi cle.

HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS

When problems appear, stop using the system immediately and contact the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment. Some problems which may warrant immediate attention include a lack of sound, noxious odors or smoke being emitted from the unit, or foreign objects dropped inside the unit.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND

Use only in cars with a 12 volts negative (-) ground. (Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

Before doing any electrical wiring, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) terminal of the battery. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts.

POINTS TO OBSERVE FOR SAFE USAGE

KEEP ELECTRICAL CABLES TOGETHER TO AVOID OPER

ATING HAZARDS

Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the installation manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstructs or hangs up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals can be extremely hazardous.

DO NOT CUT AWAY THE WIRE SHEATH AND USE POWER TO OTHER EQUIPMENT

Never cut away the cable shielding to use power to another piece of equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION

Do not install in locations which might create hazards for the vehicle occupants or hinder vehicle operation (such as the steering wheel or gear shift) by obstructing forward vision or hampering movement etc.

/K Caution

DO NOT RAISE THE VOLUME EXCESSIVELY

Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside noises while driving. Driving while unable to hear outside

sounds could cause an accident.

DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE

Do not use this equipment for purposes other than those listed for a vehicle. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock or an injury.

KEEP FOREIGN OBJECTS OUT OF THE CD COMPART MENT SLOT

Keep any foreign objects, including fingers, out of the CD com partment slot.

STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY OP ERATION THAT COULD INTERFERE WITH YOUR DRIVING

If loading or unloading a CD interferes with your driving, stop

the vehicle in a safe location before attempting operation.

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EX PERTS

The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this unit to have the work done.

USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM

Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other

than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place as parts that come loose can create hazards.
