FCC ID: AJDK045

MODEL NO.: DEH-P8400BH IC: 775E-K045

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).

Before you start

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

The tuner frequencies on this unit are allocated for use in North America. Use in other areas may result in poor reception.

WARNING

Handling the cord on this product or cords associated with accessories sold with the product may expose you to chemicals listed on proposition 65 known to the State of California and other governmental entities to cause cancer and birth defect or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

WARNING

!Use speakers over 50 W (output value) and between 4 W to 8 W (impedance value). Do not use 1 W to 3 W speakers for this unit.

!The black cable is ground. When installing this unit or power amp (sold separately), make sure to connect the ground wire first. Ensure that the ground wire is properly connected to metal parts of the car’s body. The ground wire of the power amp and the one of this unit or any other device must be connected to the car separately with different screws. If the screw for the ground wire loosens or falls out, it could result in fire, generation of smoke or malfunction.

!Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding only. Failure to do so may result in a fire or malfunction.

!To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or malfunction, be sure to follow the directions below.

—Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery before installation.

—Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. Wrap adhesive tape around wiring that comes into contact with metal parts to protect the wiring.

—Place all cables away from moving parts, such as the shift lever and seat rails.

—Place all cables away from hot places, such as near the heater outlet.

—Do not connect the yellow cable to the battery by passing it through the hole to the engine compartment.

—Cover any disconnected cable connectors with insulating tape.

—Do not shorten any cables.

—Never cut the insulation of the power cable of this unit in order to share the power with other devices. The current capacity of the cable is limited.

—Use a fuse of the rating prescribed.

—Never wire the negative speaker cable directly to ground.

—Never band together negative cables of multiple speakers.

!When this unit is on, control signals are sent through the blue/white cable. Connect this cable to the system remote control of an external power amp or the vehicle’s auto-anten- na relay control terminal (max. 300 mA

12 V DC). If the vehicle is equipped with a glass antenna, connect it to the antenna booster power supply terminal.

!Never connect the blue/white cable to the power terminal of an external power amp. Also, never connect it to the power terminal of the auto antenna. Doing so may result in battery drain or a malfunction.
