Welcome

Thank you for your purchasing this AIWA product. To optimize the performance of this unit, please read through this manual carefully.

• Do NOT expose the CD to direct sunlight or excessive heat.

In addition to this operating instructions manual, be sure to refer to the separate installation and connections manuals as well.

PRECAUTIONS

• This unit is designed to be operated on a 12-volt DC negative-ground electrical system only.

• To prevent short-circuiting, disconnect the negative car battery terminal until the unit has been mounted and connected completely.

• When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one whose amperage rating is identical. Use of a fuse of higher amperage may cause serious damage to the unit.

• Do NOT attempt to disassemble this unit. Laser rays from the optical pickup are dangerous to the eyes.

• Make sure that pins or other foreign objects do not get inside the unit; they may cause malfunctioning, or a safety hazard such as electrical shock or exposure of laser rays.

• When your car was parked in direct sunlight resulting in a considerable rise in temperature inside the car, allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

• Keep the volume at such a level that you can hear outside warning sounds (horns, sirens, etc.).

Notes on CDs

• A defective or soiled CD inserted in the unit can cause sound to drop out during playback.

• Handle a CD by holding its inner and outer edges.

• Do NOT touch the surface of the unlabeled side of a CD.

• Do NOT stick paper or tape etc. onto the surface.

ENGLISH

•Clean the CD before playback. Wipe the CD from the center outward with a cleaning cloth.

• NEVER use solvents such as benzine or alcohol to clean a CD.

•

Smaller 3-inch (8-cm) CDs cannot be played on this unit. And do not use an adaptor as it may cause a malfunction. NEVER insert a 3-inch (8cm) CD or its adaptor. If inserted, it may not eject.

•

Do NOT use irregularly shaped CDs (example: heart-shaped, octagonal ones). Doing so may result in a malfunction. NEVER insert an irregularly shaped CD. If inserted, it may not eject.

STEERING-WHEELMOUNTED REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

Precautions

• When the infrared receptor on the main unit is exposed to direct sunlight, it may not respond to signals from the remote control unit.

• While driving, keep your eyes on the road as you operate the remote control unit. NEVER operate the remote control unit while turning.

• Do NOT install the remote control unit where it may hinder the function of any safety device, such as an air bag.

• Be sure to install the remote control unit securely on the steering wheel. Unstable installation may interfere with operation of the vehicle.

• Do NOT install the remote control unit where it will obstruct your view of the instrument panel.

• Be sure to install the remote control unit on the side of the steering wheel closer to the main unit. If you install the remote control unit on the opposite side from the main unit, the infrared signal may not reach the main unit’s receptor, disabling remote operation.

• There may be cases in which the infrared signal does not reach the infrared receptor on the main unit, depending on the installation location.

• Do NOT install the remote control unit on the outer rim of the steering wheel. Doing so may hinder steering and cause a traffic accident. Be sure to install the remote control unit on the inner rim of the steering wheel.

CAUTION

Modifications or adjustments to this product, which are not expressly approved by the manufacturer, may void the user’s right or authority to operate this product.
