Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

• This disc player is a Class 1 Laser Product. It uses a visible/invisible laser beam that could cause hazardous radiation if exposed directly to the consumer. Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

• Do not open or attempt to repair this unit yourself. Refer any repairs to a qualified service technician.

• Be sure that the volume level of the player does not interfere with the driver’s hearing. The driver must be aware and be able to react to sound outside the vehicle.

• This product should not be used with an installed video screen which is visible to the driver of the vehicle.

• In some states and countries, the viewing of images on a screeen inside a vehicle is illegal, even by people other than the driver. Be sure that the installation and operation of this system is in compliance with local rules and regulations.

Installation precautions

Choose a mounting location in your vehicle where the unit will not distract or otherwise interfere with the driver’s ability to control the vehicle.

Before final installation, temporarily connect the wiring according to the diagram near the end of this manual, check it to ensure that it has been connected properly, and test the unit to make sure it is working correctly.

Use only the installation parts and hardware provided with the unit to ensure proper installation. Using other parts can cause malfunction and possible damage to your DVD player.

If installation requires drilling holes or other modifications to the vehicle, consult with your nearest dealer or professional car audio installer.

Do not install this unit at an angle in excess of 30º from horizontal, as it may affect performance.

Avoid installing the unit in a location which is subject to high temperatures, direct sunlight, hot air from such sources as heaters or exhaust lines, or where it will be subject to contact with dust, dirt, moisture or excessive vibration.

Operating precautions

In humid climates, moisture may condense or even freeze on the pickup lens which reads the data from your disc. This may cause temporary failure of the player.

Should this occur, turn the player on without a disc, and leave it on for a while. The unit will warm up and the moisture will evaporate. In freezing weather, this may take 1-2 hours.

Turn the unit off when it is not in use.

Do not switch the player between ON and OFF rapidly. Please wait about 10 seconds between turning the unit ON after turning it OFF, and vice versa.

Do not use broken, scratched, dusty, oily or warped discs in the player.

Do not attempt to insert anything other than 12 cm (4-3/4”) diameter discs in the player.
