XAV-A1 XAV-C1

Precautions

Unit is designed for negative ground 12 V DC systems only

The unit cannot be used in trucks or other cars with 24 V systems. Otherwise, there is a risk of fire and damage.

Do not disassemble or remodel the unit

This can cause electric shock, personal injury or fire. Do not connect any other system’s power supply cord to this unit’s power supply cord directly. If you are in any doubt about the safe installation of this unit, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Do not install in locations which interfere with airbag operation

Otherwise there is a risk of accidents and injury.

Use only the specified fuse

When replacing the fuse, be sure to use only a fuse of the same rating (ampere rating). Otherwise there is a risk of fire.

Cautions

• Do not get the wires under a screw, or caught in moving parts (e.g. seat railing).

• Before making connections, turn the car ignition off to avoid short circuits.

• Connect the yellow and red power input leads only after all other leads have been connected.

• Run all ground wires to a common ground

point.

• Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected wires with electrical tape for safety.

Notes on the power supply cord (yellow)

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

• When no car circuits are rated high enough, connect the unit directly to the battery.

On safety

Comply with the Traffic Laws in your country.

Connecting the cords

Notes

• Be sure to connect the power input

cord after all other cords are connected.

• If the parking brake switch cord is too

thin, connect the parking cord to the parking brake switch cord directly without using the tap.

Connect each cord using the taps. For the combination of each cord, see the following table. Also, see the section “1 Car Systems Connections” (next page).

1 Car Systems Connections

Refer also to the documentation for all other components in the system.

Also see “Connecting Information” on page 6.

• Components listed here except for supplied accessories are available separately. When connecting such components, be sure to also refer to their documentation. For specifications and other information on separately available components, contact your dealer.

Prevention of accidents caused by short-circuits

To prevent the risk of accidents caused by short-circuits, connect the power supply leads (red and yellow) only after all other wiring has been completed, and only with the ignition key in the OFF position. Otherwise, accidental short-circuiting can lead to electric shock and to serious damage.

When a fuse has blown, check the wiring and locate the cause of the problem before replacing the fuse. When replacing the fuse, be sure to use only a fuse of the same rating (ampere rating). Using a different fuse or bridging the contacts with wire is highly dangerous and can lead to serious damage.

Make sure to connect all of the following leads.

Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock, damage to the equipment, or malfunction.

• Connect purple/white lead to back lamp lead of car.

• Connect orange/white lead to illumination signal lead of car.

• Connect light green lead to parking brake switch lead of car.

• Connect yellow lead to battery power supply of car.

• Connect red lead to accessory power supply of car.

• Connect black lead to metal point on car chassis.

* Do not mix up the yellow and red leads, as this will cause the memory contents to be lost.

Observe the following precautions.

Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock, damage to the equipment, or malfunction.

• Cover unused connectors with electrician’s tape to prevent accidental contact.

• Route FM/AM aerial cable, bus cable, RCA interconnects, and power supply leads as far apart from each other as possible, to prevent noise interference.

• Always grasp the connector and do not pull the cable when disconnecting the bus cable or other cables. Otherwise the cable may become detached.

Notes on the control and power supply leads

• The power aerial control lead (blue) supplies +12 V DC when turn on the tuner.

• When your car has built-in FM / AM aerial in the rear / side glass, connect the power aerial control lead (blue) or the accessory power input lead (red) to the power terminal of the existing aerial booster. For details, consult your dealer.

•A power aerial without relay box cannot be used with this unit.

Memory hold connection

When the yellow power input lead is connected, power will always be supplied to the memory circuit even when the ignition key is turned off.

Notes on speaker connection

• Before connecting the speakers, turn the unit off.

• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 8 ohms, and with adequate power handling capacities to avoid its damage.

• Do not connect the speaker terminals to the car chassis, or connect the terminals of the right speakers with those of the left speaker.

• Do not connect the ground lead of this unit to the negative E terminal of the speaker.

• Do not attempt to connect the speakers in parallel.

• Connect only passive speakers. Connecting active speakers (with built-in amplifiers) to the speaker terminals may damage the unit.

•To avoid a malfunction, do not use the built-in speaker wires installed in your car if the unit shares a common negative E lead for the right and left speakers.

• Do not connect the unit’s speaker cords to each other.

Connecting without optional TV tuner unit

* Note for the aerial connecting

If your car aerial is an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) type, use the supplied adaptor qd to connect it. First connect the car aerial to the supplied adaptor qd, then connect it to the aerial jack of the main unit.

This terminal is not used in this case.
