CAUTION

¡Set the installation selector levers to the same position on both sides.

¡When the unit is installed below the horizontal position (up to 15 degrees) the ejected magazine, when left in that position, will drop due to vibrations from the car.

¡Adjust the installation selector levers into the correct locations. Setting the locations incorrectly or in varied positions will cause skipping.

¡Do not move the installation selector levers while the unit is in use. This will cause damage to the mechanism and the disc.
