Caution

This pictograph intends to alert you to the presence of important operating instructions and installation instructions. Failure to heed the instructions may result in injury or material damage.

Warning

Observe the following warnings when using this unit.

 The driver should neither watch the display nor

operate the system while driving.

Watching the display or operating the system will distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and can cause accidents. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location and use the parking brake before watching the display or operating the system.

 Use the proper power supply.

This product is designed for operation with a negative grounded 12 V DC battery system. Never operate this product with other battery systems, especially a 24 V DC battery system.

 Protect the Deck Mechanism.

Do not insert any foreign objects into the slot of this unit.

 Do not disassemble or modify the unit.

Do not disassemble, modify the unit or attempt to repair the product yourself. If the product needs to be repaired, consult your dealer or an authorized Panasonic Service Centre.

 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 objects in it, is exposed to water, is smoking, or smells), turn it off immediately and consult your dealer.

 The remote control unit should not lie about in the

car.

If the remote control unit lies about, it could fall on the ﬂ oor while driving, get wedged under the brake pedal, and lead to a trafﬁ c accident.

 Refer fuse replacement to qualiﬁ ed service

personnel.

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

Observe the following warnings when installing.

 Disconnect 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 speciﬁ c 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.

 Never 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 ﬁ xing the product or its accessories.

 Installing the product on the air bag cover or in a

location where it interferes with airbag operation is prohibited.

 Check 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, ﬁ rst check where the wire harness, gasoline tank, and electric wiring are located. Then open the hole from outside if possible.

 Never install the product in a location where it

interferes with your ﬁ eld of vision.

 Never have the power cord branched to supply

other equipment with power.

 After installation and wiring, you should check the

normal operation of other electrical equipment.

The continuation of their using in abnormal conditions may cause ﬁ re, electrical shock or a trafﬁ c accident.

 In the case of installation to an airbag-equipping

car, conﬁ rm warnings and cautions of the vehicle manufacturer before installation.

 Make sure the leads do not interfere with driving or

getting in and out of the vehicle.

 Insulate all exposed wires to prevent short

circuiting.

Caution

Observe the following cautions when using this unit.

 Keep the sound volume at an appropriate level.

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



This unit is designed for use exclusively in automobiles.

 Do 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.

 Do 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, ﬁ re, or other damage to the unit.

 Do not use the product where it is exposed to water,

moisture, or dust.

Exposure of the unit to water, moisture, or dust may lead to smoke, ﬁ re, or other damage to the unit. Make especially sure that the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy days.

 Set 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.



Refer wiring and installation to qualiﬁ ed service personnel.

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



Follow the instructions to install and wire the product.

Not following the instructions to properly install and wire the product could cause an accident or ﬁ re.

 Take care not to damage the leads.

When wiring, take care not to damage the leads. Prevent them from getting caught in the vehicle chassis, screws, and moving parts such as seat rails. Do not scratch, pull, bend or twist the leads. Do not run them near heat sources or place heavy objects on them. If leads must be run over sharp metal edges, protect the leads by winding them with vinyl tape or similar protection.

 Use the designated parts and tools for installation.

Use the supplied or designated parts and appropriate tools to install the product. The use of parts other than those supplied or designated may result in internal damage to the unit. Faulty installation may lead to an accident, a malfunction or ﬁ re.



Do not block the air vent or the cooling plate of the

unit.

Blocking these parts will cause the interior of the unit to overheat and will result in ﬁ re or other damage.

 Do not install the product where it is exposed to

strong vibrations or is unstable.

Avoid slanted or strongly curved surfaces for installation. If the installation is not stable, the unit may fall down while driving and this can lead to an accident or injury.

 Installation Angle

The product should be installed in a horizontal position with the front end up at a convenient angle, but not more than 30˚. The user should bear in mind that in some areas there may be restrictions on how and where this unit must be installed. Consult your dealer for further details.

 Wear gloves for safety. Make sure that wiring is

completed before installation.



To prevent damage to the unit, do not connect the

power connector until the whole wiring is completed.

Enhanced Other Networks (EON)

When EON data is received, the EON indicator lights and the TA and AF functions are expanded as follows.

TA:

Trafﬁ c information from the current and other network stations can be received.

AF:

The frequency list of preset RDS stations is updated by EON data. EON enables the radio to make fuller use of RDS information. It constantly updates the AF list of preset stations, including the one that is currently tuned in to. For example, if you preset a station far from home, you will later be able to receive the same station at an alternative frequency, or another station serving the same programme. EON also keeps track of locally available TP stations for quick reception.

Emergency Announcement Reception

When an emergency announcement is broadcast, the unit is automatically switched to receiving that broadcast (Even when in the CD mode, MP3 mode or AUX mode). During receiving the emergency announcement, “ALARM” appears on the display.

Note: Emergency announcements are broadcast at the TA volume level. (

• You are recommended to minimize the chances of making a disc that contains both CD-DA ﬁ les and MP3/WMA ﬁ les.

• If CD-DA ﬁ les are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA ﬁ les, the songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs may not play at all.

• When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc, use different folders for each data.

• Do not record ﬁ les other than MP3/WMA ﬁ les and unnecessary folder on a disc.

• The name of an MP3/WMA ﬁ le should be added by rules as shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each ﬁ le system.

• The ﬁ le extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to each ﬁ le depending on the ﬁ le format.

• You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA ﬁ les or displaying the information of MP3/WMA ﬁ les recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders.

• This unit does not have a play list function.

• Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of Disc-at-Once is recommended.

MP3/WMA Player

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3* (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows MediaTM Audio) are the compression formats of digital audio. The former is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group), and the latter is developed by Microsoft Corporation. Using these compression formats, you can record the contents of about 10 music CDs on a single CD media (This ﬁ gures refer to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a ﬁ xed bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).

*MPEG Layer-3 audio coding technology licensed from

Fraunhofer.

Note: MP3/WMA encoding and writing software is not supplied with this unit.

Points to Remember When Making MP3/WMA Files

Common

• High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended for high quality sounds.

• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended because playing time is not displayed properly and sound may be skipped.

• The playback sound quality differs depending on the encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the instructions of your own encoding software and writing software.

MP3

• It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or more” and “ﬁ xed”.

WMA

• It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or more” and “ﬁ xed”.

• Do not set the copy protect attribute on the WMA ﬁ le to enable this unit to play back.
