θ Do not use the unit when it is out of order.

If the unit is out of order (no power, no sound) or in an abnormal state (has foreign matter in it, is exposed to water, is smoking, or smells), turn it off immediately and consult the store where you purchased it.

θRefer fuse replacement to qualified service personnel.

When the fuse blows out, eliminate the cause and have it replaced with the fuse prescribed for this unit by a qualified service engineer. Incorrect replacement of the fuse may lead to smoke, fire, and damage to the product.

θAny NOAA broadcast weather report, including current and forecasts, may not reflect your actual weather conditions at your exact time and location. You should always pay attention to your actual weather conditions to make safe decisions accordingly.

Observe the following warnings when installing.

θDisconnect the lead from the negative (–) battery terminal before installation.

Wiring and installation with the negative (–) battery terminal connected may cause electrical shock and injury due to a short circuit.

Some cars equipped with the electrical safety system have specific procedures of battery terminal disconnection.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE MAY LEAD TO THE UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY SYSTEM RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

θNever use safety-related components for installation, grounding, and other such functions.

Do not use safety-related vehicle components (fuel tank, brake, suspension, steering wheel, pedals, airbag, etc.) for wiring or fixing the product or its accessories.

θInstalling the product on the air bag cover or in a location where it interferes with airbag operation is prohibited.

θCheck for piping, gasoline tank, electric wiring, and other items before installing the product.

If you need to open a hole in the vehicle chassis to attach or wire the product, first check where the wire harness, gasoline tank, and electric wiring are located. Then open the hole from outside if possible.

θNever install the product in a location where it interferes with your field of vision.

θNever have the power cord branched to supply other equipment with power.

θAfter installation and wiring, you should check the normal operation of other electrical equipment.

The continuation of their using in abnormal conditions may cause fire, electrical shock or a traffic accident.

θIn the case of installation to an airbag-equipping car, confirm warnings and cautions of the vehicle manufacturer before installation.

θMake sure the leads do not interfere with driving or getting in and out of the vehicle.

θInsulate all exposed wires to prevent short circuiting.

Caution

Observe the following cautions when using this unit.

θKeep the sound volume at an appropriate level.

Keep the volume level low enough to be aware of road and traffic conditions while driving.

θDo not insert or allow your hand or fingers to be caught in the unit.

To prevent injury, do not get your hand or fingers caught in moving parts or in the disc slot. Especially watch out for infants.

θThis unit is designed for use exclusively in automobiles.

θDo not operate the unit for a prolonged period with the engine turned off.

Operating the audio system for a long period of time with the engine turned off will drain the battery.

θDo not expose the unit to direct sunlight or excessive heat.

Otherwise these will raise the interior temperature of the unit, and it may lead to smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit.

θTo ensure safety, never attempt to preset stations while you are driving.

θDepending upon the transmission condition of elec- tro-magnetic waves, the geographical reasons and/or the weather conditions, you may not receive the NOAA radio partially or at all.

θMake sure that your weather radio can receive properly before driving, especially, before use in a critical condition.

θSet the volume level to low enough before the AUX connection is completed.

Failure to observe this, the loud noise may come out and damage your speakers and your hearing. Direct connection of the speaker/headphone output of an external device without any attenuator may distort sound or damage the connected external device.

Observe the following cautions when installing.

θRefer wiring and installation to qualified service personnel.

Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience. For maximum safety, have it installed by the shop where you purchased it. Panasonic is not liable for any problems resulting from your own installation of the unit.
