INGs and CAUTIONs in this manual. Please keep the manual in a safe and accessible place for future reference.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Please read all of these instructions regarding your display and retain them for future reference. 1 Do not install the display where it may

(i) obstruct the driver’s vision, (ii) impair the performance of any of the vehicle’s operating systems or safety features, including air bags, hazard lamp buttons or (iii) impair the driver’s ability to safely operate the vehicle.

2 Do not operate this display if doing so in

any way will divert your attention from the safe operation of your vehicle. Always observe safe driving rules and follow all existing traffic regulations. If you experience difficulty in operating the system or reading the display, park your vehicle in a safe location and make necessary adjustments.

3 Please remember to wear your seat belt

at all times while operating your vehicle. If you are ever in an accident, your injuries can be considerably more severe if your seat belt is not properly buckled.

4 Never use headphones while driving. 5 To promote safety, certain functions are

disabled unless the parking brake is on, and the vehicle is not in motion.

6 Never set the volume of your display so

high that you cannot hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.

WARNING

Do not attempt to install or service your display by yourself. Installation or servicing of the display by persons without training and experience in electronic equipment and automotive accessories may be dangerous and could expose you to the risk of electric shock or other hazards.

To ensure safe driving

WARNING

! LIGHT GREEN LEAD AT POWER CONNEC-

TOR IS DESIGNED TO DETECT PARKED STATUS AND MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE POWER SUPPLY SIDE OF THE PARKING BRAKE SWITCH. IMPROPER CONNECTION OR USE OF THIS LEAD MAY VIOLATE APPLICABLE LAW AND MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE.

! To avoid the risk of damage and injury and the

potential violation of applicable laws, this unit is not for use with a video screen that is visible to the driver.

! To avoid the risk of accident and the potential vio-

lation of applicable laws, no viewing of front seat video should ever occur while the vehicle is being driven.

! In some countries or states the viewing of images

on a display inside a vehicle even by persons other than the driver may be illegal. Where such regulations apply, they must be obeyed and this unit’s video features should not be used.

When you attempt to watch a video image while driving, the warning “Viewing of front seat

To watch a video image on the front display, park your vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking brake.

Parking brake interlock

Certain functions (Video viewing and certain touch panel keys) offered by this unit could be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while driving. To prevent such functions from being used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an interlock system that senses when the parking brake is set. If you attempt to use the functions described above while driving, they will become disabled until you stop the vehicle in a safe place, and (1) apply the parking brake, (2) release the parking brake, and then (3) apply the parking brake again. Please keep the brake pedal pushed down before releasing the parking brake.

When using a display connected to rear monitor output

Information to User

FCC ID: AJDK058 MODEL NO.: AVH-X5500BHS, AVH-X4500BT, AVH-X3500BHS, AVH-X2500BT IC: 775E-K058 This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device. This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The antenna for Bluetooth cannot be removed (or replaced) by user. This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20 cm or more away from person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).

MODEL NO.: AVH-X1500DVD This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Alteration or modifications carried out without appropriate authorization may invalidate the user’ s right to operate the equipment.

Note

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands

Get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level—a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound, so what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:

! Set your volume control at a low setting. ! Slowly increase the sound until you can hear

it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.

! Once you have established a comfortable

sound level, set the dial and leave it there.

BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:

! Do not turn up the volume so high that you

can’t hear what’s around you.

! Use caution or temporarily discontinue use

in potentially hazardous situations.

! Do not use headphones while operating a

motorized vehicle; the use of headphones may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

About this unit

hands after handling.

CAUTION: USE OF CONTROL OR ADJUSTMENT OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE. CAUTION: THE USE OF OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS WITH THIS PRODUCT WILL INCREASE EYE HAZARD.

CAUTION

! Do not allow this unit to come into contact

! Keep this manual handy for future reference. ! Always keep the volume low enough to hear

outside sounds.
