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.
❑
Keep batteries and insulation film out of reach of
infants.
Batteries and insulation film can be ingested, so keep them
out of the reach of infants. If an infant ingests a battery or
insulation film, please seek immediate medical attention.
❑

❑
Refer fuse replacement to qualified service personnel.
When the fuse burns 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.
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
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.
❑
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 fixing 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, first 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 field 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 fire, electrical shock or a traffic accident.
❑
In the case of installation to an airbag-equipping
car, confirm 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
traffic conditions while driving.
❑
Do 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.
❑
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, fire, 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, fire, or other damage to the unit. Make especially
sure that the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy
days.
Observe the following cautions when
installing.
❑
Refer wiring and installation to qualified service
personnel.
Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience.
For maximum safety, have it installed by your dealer.

New Features
Full Digital CD Receiver
The CQ-C9901W/C9801W uses Radio DSP for digital
conversion and processing of FM/AM signals, and a
digital amp to provide amplification of the digital data.
With this technology, Panasonic achieves full digital
processing of radio and CD signals from input to speaker
output. This means faithful reproduction of the original
sound.
Radio DSP
By digitally converting and processing FM/AM broadcast
signals, this greatly reduces adjacent interference and
multipath distortion.
A radio's IF filter has the job of preventing neighboring
broadcast frequencies from interfering with reception of
your desired station. Panasonic's Radio DSP uses an
advanced algorithm to perform this task with digital
control. It maintains the optimum balance between noise
suppression and sound quality by automatically adjusting
the IF filter bandwidth in response to the changing
interference characteristics as you drive.
Fully Motorized Front Panel
A touch is all it takes to slide the front panel down for
access to the disc slot. A three-stage tilt function permits
viewing angle to be adjusted to 15, 25 or 35 degrees for
optimum display visibility.
256x64 pixel 512-color OEL display
(CQ-C9901W only)
Multicolored expression can be achieved thanks to OEL
display. You can use this unit in your original way in collaboration with the customization function.

MP3/WMA Player
What is MP3/WMA?
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows Media
TM
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 figures refer to data recorded on a
650MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps
and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).
Notes:
¡ MP3/WMA encoding and CD writing software pro-
grams are not supplied with this unit.
¡ CD 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 recom-
mended for high quality sound.
¡ 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 user
manual of your own encoding software and writing
software.
MP3
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or
more” and “fixed”.
WMA
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or
more” and “fixed”.
¡ Do not set the copy protect attribute on the WMA file
to enable this unit to play back.
Display Information
Displayed items
Displayable characters
¡ Displayable length of file name/folder name: within 64
characters.
¡ Name files and folders in accordance with the stan-
dard of each file system. Refer to the instructions of
writing software for details.
¡ ASCII character set and special characters in each lan-
guage can be displayed.
ASCII character set
A to Z, a to z, digits 0 to 9, and the following symbols:
(space) ! ” # $ % & ’ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] ˆ
_ ` { | } ~
Notes:
¡ With some software in which MP3/WMA format files
have been encoded, the character information may not
be displayed properly.
¡ Undisplayable characters and symbols will be convert-
ed into an asterisk (
*
).
¡ It is recommended that the length of the file name is
less than 8 (excluding the file extension).
Caution
Never assign the “.mp3”, or “.wma” file
name extension to a file that is not in the
MP3/WMA format. This may not only pro-
duce noise from the speaker damage, but
also damage your hearing.

¡ You are recommended to minimize the chances of
making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and
MP3/WMA files.
¡ If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA
files, 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 files other than MP3/WMA files and
unnecessary folder on a disc.
¡ The name of MP3/WMA file should be added by rules
as shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each file system.
¡ The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be
assigned to each file depending on the file format.
¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files
or displaying the information of MP3/WMA files
recorded with certain writing software or CD
recorders.
¡ This unit does not have the play list function.
¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the
use of Disc-at-Once is recommended.
Supported file systems
ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Apple Extension to ISO 9660,

files, the nearest MP3/WMA files in the order of playback will be played.
¡ Playback order may be different from other MP3/WMA
