INFORMATION (For U.S.A.)
ENGLISH
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Warning:
If you need to operate the receiver while
driving, be sure to look ahead carefully or
you may be involved in a traffic accident.
How to reset your unit
Press the reset button on the control panel
using a ball-point pen or a similar tool.
This will reset the built-in microcomputer.
Your preset adjustments—such as preset
channels or sound adjustments—will also be

For safety....
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as
this will block outside sounds, making
driving dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any
complicated operations.

About MP3 and WMA discs
MP3 and WMA (Windows Media® Audio)
“tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used
interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”
“Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every
track and folder can be linked to and be

image <jll> file edited by Image Converter
(Wide)—supplied in the CD-ROM, you can
show the image on the display while the
tracks in the folder are played back. (See
