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:

ˋ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
ˋ Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

ˋ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a

circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.

ˋ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help.

You are cautioned that any changes or
modifications not expressly approved in this
manual could void your authority to operate this
equipment.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated
in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce
potential radio interference to other users, the
antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that
the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.)
is not more than that necessary for successful
communication.

This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency
(RF) Exposure Guidelines 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.

may affect the operation of electronic medical
devices. Turn off this unit and other BLUETOOTH
devices in the following locations, as it may cause
an accident.
ˋ where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital,

train, airplane, or petrol station

ˋ near automatic doors or a fire alarm

ˎ This unit supports security capabilities that

comply with the BLUETOOTH standard to provide
a secure connection when the BLUETOOTH
wireless technology is used, but security may not
be enough depending on the setting. Be careful

Connection/Installation

Cautions

ˎ Run all ground (earth) leads to a common

ground (earth) point.

ˎ Do not get the leads trapped under a screw, or

caught in moving parts (e.g., seat railing).

ˎ Before making connections, turn the car ignition

off to avoid short circuits.

ˎ Connect the yellow and red power supply leads

only after all other leads have been connected.

ˎ Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected leads

with electrical tape for safety.

Precautions

ˎ Choose the installation location carefully so that

the unit will not interfere with normal driving
operations.

ˎ Avoid installing the unit in areas subject to dust,

dirt, excessive vibration, or high temperature,
such as in direct sunlight or near heater ducts.

ˎ Use only the supplied mounting hardware for a

safe and secure installation.

Note on the power supply lead (yellow)

When connecting this unit in combination with other
stereo components, the amperage rating of the car
circuit to which the unit is connected must be higher
than the sum of each component’s fuse amperage
rating.

Mounting angle adjustment

Adjust the mounting angle to less than 45°.

Parts List for Installation

ʜ

ˎ This parts list does not include all the package

contents.

ˎ The bracket ʓ and the protection collar ʕ are

attached to the unit before shipping. Before
mounting the unit, use the release keys ʔ to
remove the bracket ʓ from the unit. For details,
see “Removing the protection collar and the
bracket” (page 37).

ˎ Keep the release keys ʔ for future use as they are

also necessary if you remove the unit from your
car.

Making connections

ɞ To a common ground (earth) point

First connect the black ground (earth) lead, then
connect the yellow and red power supply leads.

ɟ To the +12 V power terminal which is

energized at all times

Be sure to first connect the black ground (earth)
lead to a common ground (earth) point.

ɠ To the +12 V power terminal which is

energized when the ignition switch is set to
the accessory position

If there is no accessory position, connect to the
+12 V power (battery) terminal which is
energized at all times.
Be sure to first connect the black ground (earth)
lead to a common ground (earth) point.

ɡ To the power antenna (aerial) control lead or

the power supply lead of the antenna (aerial)
booster

It is not necessary to connect this lead if there is
no power antenna (aerial) or antenna (aerial)
booster, or with a manually-operated telescopic
antenna (aerial).

To AMP REMOTE IN of an optional power
amplifier

This connection is only for amplifiers and a
power antenna (aerial). Connecting any other
system may damage the unit.

ɢ To a car’s illumination signal

Be sure to first connect the black ground (earth)
lead to a common ground (earth) point.

When making the high level input
connection

For details, see “High level input connection”
(page 36).

ɣ To the left speaker output (white) of an audio

device

ɤ To the right speaker output (gray) of an audio

device

When connecting to the battery directly

Whe n the am perage rating of the fuse used on your
car is 10 A, make the power connection to the
battery directly to avoid short circuits.

ɥ to a metal point of car
ɦ to the positive battery terminal

Notes

ˎ Despite connecting to the power supply lead of the

car, the unit may not fully provide its performance
due to insufficient power. In this case, make the
power connection to the battery directly.

ˎ Make sure that the car’s battery wires connected to

the car (ground (earth) to chassis) are of a wire gauge
at least equal to that of the main power wire
connected from the battery to the head unit.

If you have any questions or problems concerning
the connection, consult the dealer for details.

Optical connection

ˎ This OPTICAL OUT is designed for connecting a

power amplifier with an optical input. When
another digital device is connected, the functions
of the device may not work properly.

ˎ When making connections, do not bend the

optical cable (not supplied). Doing so may
prevent output of sound.

ˎ When the optical connection is made:

ˋ the volume controls on the unit and the remote

commander do not work.

ˋ [Subwoofer], [Pos Custom], [EQ10 Preset],

[Balance], [Fader] and [DSEE-HX] are
automatically set to [OFF].

ˋ No sound is output while native DSD playback

is performed via the USB micro-B port.

Installing the microphone

To capture your voice during handsfree calling, you
need to install the microphone ʙ.

Be sure to keep it and other parts from interfering
with your driving operations.

ˎ If airbags or any other shock-absorbing

equipment is in your car, contact the store where
you purchased this unit, or the car dealer, before
installation.

Note

Before attaching the double-sided tape ʚ, clean the
surface of the dashboard with a dry cloth.

Power amplifier connection
