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.

Handling guidelines

Discs and player

Use only discs that feature either of the following two logos.

Use 12-cm discs. Do not use 8-cm discs or an adapter for 8-cm discs.

Use only conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use shaped discs.

Do not insert anything other than a CD into the

CD loading slot.

Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged discs as they may damage the player.

Unfinalized CD-R/RW discs cannot be played back.

Do not touch the recorded surface of the discs.

Store discs in their cases when not in use.

Do not attach labels, write on or apply chemicals to the surface of the discs.

To clean a CD, wipe the disc with a soft cloth outward from the center.

Condensation may temporarily impair the player’s performance. Let it rest for about one hour to adjust to a warmer temperature. Also, wipe any damp discs off with a soft cloth.

Playback of discs may not be possible because of disc characteristics, disc format, recorded application, playback environment, storage conditions, and so on.

Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.

Read the precautions for discs before using them.

When using discs that can be printed on label surfaces, check the instructions and the warnings of the discs. Depending on the discs, inserting and ejecting may not be possible. Using such discs may result in damage to this equipment.

Do not attach commercially available labels or other materials to the discs.

!The discs may warp making the disc unplayable.

!The labels may come off during playback and prevent ejection of the discs, which may result in damage to the equipment.

Additional information

USB storage device

Address any questions you have about your USB storage device to the manufacturer of the device.

Connections via USB hub are not supported.

Do not connect anything other than a USB storage device.

Firmly secure the USB storage device when driving. Do not let the USB storage device fall onto the floor, where it may become jammed under the brake or accelerator pedal.

Depending on the USB storage device, the following problems may occur.

!Operations may vary.

!The storage device may not be recognized.

!Files may not be played back properly.

!The device may generate noise in the radio.

DualDiscs

DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for video on the other.

Since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physically compatible with the general CD standard, it may not be possible to play the CD side with this unit. Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may result in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can lead to playback problems on this unit. In some cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc loading slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recommend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit.

Please refer to the information from the disc manufacturer for more detailed information about DualDiscs.

iPod

Do not leave the iPod in places with high temperatures.

To ensure proper operation, connect the dock connector cable from the iPod directly to this unit.

Firmly secure the iPod when driving. Do not let the iPod fall onto the floor, where it may become jammed under the brake or accelerator pedal.

About iPod settings

!When an iPod is connected, this unit changes the EQ (equalizer) setting of the iPod to off in order to optimize the acoustics. When you disconnect the iPod, the EQ returns to the original setting.

!You cannot set Repeat to off on the iPod when using this unit. Repeat is automatically changed to All when the iPod is connected to this unit.

Incompatible text saved on the iPod will not be displayed by the unit.
