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

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.

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.

❑

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.

This pictograph intends to alert you to the pres­ence of important operating instructions and
installation instructions. Failure to heed the

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 will be 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.
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 fire.

❑

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 fire.

❑

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 fire 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.

❑

Do not connect more than one speaker to one set

Note:

¡The number in parenthesis underneath each accessory

part name is the part number for maintenance and
service.

¡Accessories and their parts numbers are subject to

modification without prior notice due to improvements.

Liquid Crystal Panel

¡Do not cause impact to the liquid crystal panel.
¡Usage temperature range: 0 °C to 40 °C

When the temperature is very cold or very hot, the
image may not appear clearly or may move slowly.
Also, movement of the image may seem to be out of
synchronization or the image quality may decline in
such environments. Note that this is not a malfunction
or problem.

¡In order to protect the liquid crystal panel, keep it out

of direct sunlight while the unit is not in use.

¡Sudden changes in the temperature inside the car such

as those which occur immediately after the car’s air
conditioner or heater has been turned on may cause
the inside of the liquid crystal panel to cloud over due
to water vapor or it may cause condensation (droplets
of water) to form and, as a result, the panel may not
work properly. Do not use the unit while these symp­toms are in evidence but leave the unit standing for
about and hour, and then resume or start use.
