Warning
Observe the following warnings when using this unit.
ΤThe driver should not 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.
ΤUse 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.
ΤDo 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 dealership.
ΤDo 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 dealership.
ΤAny 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.
ΤKeep accessories out of reach of infants.
Accessories can be ingested, so keep them out of the reach of infants. If an infant ingests accessories, please seek immediate medical attention.
Observe the following warnings when installing.
ΤDisconnect 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.
ΤNever 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.
ΤCheck 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.
ΤNever install the product in a location where it interferes with your field of vision.
ΤNever have the power cord branched to supply other equipment with power.
ΤAfter 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.
ΤMake sure the leads do not interfere with driving or getting in and out of the vehicle.
ΤInsulate all exposed wires to prevent short circuiting.

Caution
Observe the following cautions when using this unit.
ΤKeep the sound volume at an appropriate level.
Keep the volume level low enough to be aware of road and traffic conditions while driving.
ΤThis unit is designed for use exclusively in trucks.
ΤDo 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.
ΤDo 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.
ΤDo 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 truck washes or on rainy days.
ΤTo ensure safety, never attempt to preset stations while you are driving.
ΤDepending upon the transmission condition of electro-magnetic waves, the geographical
reasons and/or the weather conditions, you may not receive the NOAA radio partially or at all.
ΤMake sure that your weather radio can receive properly before driving, especially, before use in a critical condition.
ΤSet 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.
ΤWhen using this unit, noise may occurs when there is an electromagnetic-wave generator such as a cellular phone near this unit, if that noise is obvious and cannot be eliminated, please keep an electromagnetic-wave generator such as a cellular phone away from this unit.
Observe the following cautions when installing.
ΤRefer wiring and installation to qualified service personnel.
Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience. For maximum safety, have it installed by the dealership. We are not liable for any problems resulting from your own installation of the unit.
ΤFollow the instruction to install and wire the product.
Not following the instructions to properly install and wire the product could cause an accident or fire.
ΤTake 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.
ΤUse 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.
ΤDo 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.
ΤDo 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.
ΤInstallation Angle
The product should be installed in a horizontal position with the front end up at a convenient angle. 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.
ΤWear gloves for safety. Make sure that wiring is completed before installation.
ΤTo prevent damage to the unit, do not connect the power connector until the whole wiring is completed.
ΤDo not connect more than one speaker to one set of speaker leads. (except for connecting to a tweeter)
