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.

Liquid Crystal Panel

¡Storage temperature range: – 20 °C to 80 °C

{– 4 °F to 176 °F} When the liquid crystal panel reaches high temperatures or low temperatures, chemical changes occur within the liquid crystal panel which may cause malfunctions.

¡Do not strongly impact the liquid crystal panel. ¡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 is not malfunction or problem.

¡Usage temperature range: 0 °C to 40 °C

{32 °F to 104 °F} There may be red spots, blue spots and green spots on the panel surface. This is a characteristic of liquid crystal panels and is not a problem. The liquid crystal panel is built with very high precision technology and has at least 99.99% effective image pixels. Be aware that on

0.01% of the panel there may be missing pixels or constantly light pixels.

¡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 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.

This system is designed so that you cannot see moving pictures while you are driving.

Park your car in a safe and pull the side brake (parking brake) lever before watching the monitor.

A rear monitor (option) displays moving pictures while driving.

Note:

Be sure to connect the side brake (parking brake) connection lead. (a Installation Instructions)

Notes on MP3/WMA

English

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows MediaTMAudio) 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 (This figure refers to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).

Note:

¡ MP3/WMA encoding and CD writing software programs are

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 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 instructions 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 protection 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 128 char-

acters.

¡ Name files and folders in accordance with the standard of

each file system. Refer to the instructions of writing software for details.

¡ ASCII character set and special characters in each language

can be displayed.

ASCII character set

A to Z, a to z, digits 0 to 9, and the following symbols:

(space) ! ” # $ % & ’ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] ˆ _ ` { | }

Note:

¡ 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 converted into

an asterisk (

¡It is recommended that the length of the file name is less than

8 (excluding the file extension).

¡ CD-TEXT

Disc title Track title

¡ MP3/WMA

Folder name File name

¡ MP3 (ID3 tag)

Album name Title and artist name

¡ WMA (WMA tag)

Album name Title and artist name

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 produce 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 unneces-

sary folder on a disc.

¡ The name of an 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 dis-

playing the information of MP3/WMA files 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.

Supported file systems

ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Apple Extension to ISO 9660, Joliet, Romeo

Note:

¡ Apple HFS, UDF 1.50, Mix CD and CD Extra are not supported.

Maximum number of files/folders

¡ Maximum number of files: 512 ¡ Maximum number of files in one folder: 255 ¡ Maximum depth of trees: 8 ¡ Maximum number of folders: 255 (Root folder is included.)

Note:

¡ This unit counts the number of folders irrespective of the presence or

absence of an MP3/WMA file.

¡ If the selected folder does not contain any MP3/WMA files, the near-

est MP3/WMA files in the order of playback will be played.

¡ Playback order may be different from other MP3/WMA players even if

the same disc is used.

¡ “ROOT” appears when displaying the root folder name.
