Battery Charger Safety

Caution: Opening the case may result in electric shock.
Caution: The uninsulated parts inside the power adapter and dock may cause electric shock

or fire. For your safety, please do not open these components. Do not let metallic objects,
such as necklaces or coins, come into contact with the power adapter plugs or battery
terminal.
Caution: To avoid electric shock, use the power adapter only with an outlet that matches
the shape of the adapter’s plug.

Caution: Make sure that you insert the adapter’s plug all the way into the outlet.
Caution: Do not plug several devices into the same electrical outlet.
Important: Always read and understand the user guide to prevent problems.
Warning: Use the power adapter and dock away from water sources to avoid fire or

electric shock.

Environmental Information

Follow local guidelines for waste disposal when discarding packaging, batteries, and

electronic appliances.

Your player is packaged with cardboard, polyethylene, etc., and does not contain any
unnecessary materials.

Earbuds and Headphones

Follow traffic safety instructions.

Do not use earbuds or headphones while operating a bicycle, automobile, or motorcycle.

Not only is it dangerous, it may be prohibited by law in some areas.

For your safety, make sure the earbud or headphone cable does not get in the way of your

arm or other surrounding objects while you’re walking or exercising.

Introduction

Introduction

Protect Your Ears

Maintain a moderate volume when walking or exercising, so that you can be aware
of what is happening around you.
Using earbuds or headphones for an extended time can cause serious damage to your
hearing.

We strongly advise you to set the volume level to medium, which is usually less than 2/3

of the maximum.
If you hear ringing in your ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the earbuds or
headphones.

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. Set your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safer level: Start 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; taking a minute to do this now will help to preserve hearing.

Pioneer and the Consumer Electronics Association recommend you avoid prolonged exposure
to excessive noise. Under constant exposure such as sustained listening, sound levels above
85 decibels can be dangerous without hearing protection. (For reference, a garbage disposal
or loud shouting at 3 feet away are around 80 decibels; a food blender or gas lawn mower
at 3 feet away are around 90 decibels.) The longer your exposure and/or higher the sound
level, the greater the danger of permanent hearing damage. Pioneer disclaims all liability for
hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product.

WA R N I N G : inno should be placed in your vehicle where it will not interfere with the func-

tion of safety features, e. g . , deployment of airbags. Failure to correctly place inno may result in
injury to you or others if the unit becomes detached during an accident and/or obstructs the
deployment of an airbag.

Subscribing to XM

Before you can listen to or record XM content, you must activate your inno.

1. Set up your inno, dock station, power adapter, and antenna (page 20 or page 22). Make
sure inno can receive the XM signal.

2. Place inno in the “Live XM” mode (page 26).

3. Find the 8-character XM Radio ID, which is printed on the package or in the battery com­partment underneath the battery. Or select XM channel 0 to view the Radio ID. Record the
Radio ID here for reference:

The XM Radio ID does not use the letters I, O, S, or F.

4. Activate your XM Satellite Radio service online at http://activate.xmradio.com or by calling

1-800-XM-RADIO (1-800-967-2346). You will need a major credit card.

XM will send a signal from the satellites to activate the full channel lineup. A c t i vation normally
takes 10 to 15 minutes, but during peak busy periods you may need to keep your player on
for up to an hour. When you can access the full channel lineup on your inno, you’re finished!

Setup

In a Vehicle
(requires Car Accessory Kit CD-INCAR1, sold separately)

Every vehicle is different; for your safety, follow all instructions carefully.
Consult a professional installer if you have questions.

You can listen to your inno through your car stereo by using inno’s built-in FM transmitter.
Simply find an unused FM frequency on the stereo and set inno to transmit on that same
frequency.

1. Mount antenna to the roof or trunk of the vehicle. During installation, make sure you are
outdoors and the antenna is not obstructed by tall buildings.

4. To install the swivel mount, first find a suitable location. The swivel mount’s adhesive is
very strong and may be difficult to remove. Do not install this mount on leather surfaces
and make sure the air temperature is at least 60°F (15°C).

Clean the mounting surfaces with the surface preparation kit. Peel away the adhesive liner
and firmly press the swivel mount to the surface for 30 seconds. Allow 24 hours before
using the mount.

You can adjust the tension of
the mount with a screwdriver.

If you need to remove the mount, carefully lift the adhesive pad with your fingers or a
spoon. Warming with a hair dryer for several minutes will help soften the adhesive.
