Aspect Ratio (for VTR Mode)

Default:Normal

Mode: 4 types

Press [ASP] (ASPECT) on the display unit or press [A] (ASPECT) on the remote control to change the aspect ratio as follows.

Normal

• The conventional display image has a 4 to 3 ratio of horizontal to vertical.
• In this case, a blank area remains on the right and left sides of the display.

Full

• The screen is extended horizontally as a whole to the aspect ratio of 16 to 9.
• The extension ratio is the same at any point of the screen.

Zoom

• The screen is fully extended at the normal aspect ratio of 4 to 3.
• The top and bottom of the screen are slightly cut.

Just

• The screen is extended horizontally to the aspect ratio of 16 to 9.
• The extension ratio increases toward the right and left ends of the screen.

Notes:

• This adjustment is common to VTR1 and VTR2.
• You can not change the aspect in the menu screen and a screen in the CD mode. These are fixed to "Full".
• The "Zoom" and "Just" screens do not apply to car navigation images.
• When the rear view camera is in operation with the transmission gear shift in the reverse position, the image is shown on the "Full" screen only.
• In some cases, the picture looks different from the original one due to your selection of aspect.

Cautions:

• This is to remind you that compression or extension of the screen using the aspect ratio (screen mode) changing function of this product for commercial purpose of profit making or viewing / listening by the public could infringe on the rights of the author protected by the copyright law.
• If you expand normal picture (4 to 3) by using "Just", "Zoom" or "Full" aspect to the full of the screen, you might not see the periphery of the picture, or you might see deformed picture. Therefore, use the "Normal" mode when you see original picture in deference to picture-making purpose.

• Attach the wires correctly. If the wiring is not correctly performed, it may cause a fire or an accident. In particular, be sure to run and secure the lead wire so that it does not get tangled with a screw or the moving portion of a seat rail.
• Use with 12 volt DC negative ground vehicle. This unit is only for use with a 12 volt DC negative ground vehicle. It cannot be used in large trucks or diesel vehicles which are 24 volt DC vehicle. If it is used in the wrong type of vehicles, it may cause a fire or an accident.

Caution

• Use the specified fuse. Be sure to always use the specified fuse. If a fuse other than the specified fuse is used, it may cause a fire or an accident.
• Do not damage the cord by pinching or pulling it. Do not pull or damage the cord. If the cord is not treated properly, it will short out or be severed and may cause a fire or an accident.

Required Tools

You'll need a screwdriver, a 1.5 volt AA battery, and the following:

12 V DC Test Bulb

Electrical Tape

Side-Cut Pliers

Identify All Leads

The first step in installation is to identify all the car wires you'll use when hooking up your sound system.

As you identify each wire, we suggest that you label it using masking tape and a permanent marker. This will help avoid confusion when making connections later.

Note: Do not connect the power connector to the stereo unit until you have made all connections. If there are no plastic caps on the stereo hooking wires, insulate all exposed leads with electrical tape until you are ready to use them. Identify the leads in the following order.

Power Lead

If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one :

Cut the connector wires one at a time from the plug (leaving the leads as long as possible) so that you can work with individual leads. Turn the ignition on to the accessory position, and ground one lead of the test bulb to the chassis.

Touch the other lead of the test bulb to each of the exposed wires from the cut radio connector plug. Touch one wire at a time until you find the outlet that causes the test bulb to light.

Now turn the ignition off and then on. If the bulb also turns off and on, that outlet is the car power lead.

If your car is not wired for an audio unit :

Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for radio (RADIO), accessory (ACC), or ignition (IGN).

Battery Lead

If your stereo unit has a yellow lead, you will need to

Installation Guide (continued)

locate the car's battery lead. Otherwise you may ignore this procedure. (The yellow battery lead provides continuous power to maintain a clock, memory storage, or other functions.)

If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one:

With the ignition and headlights off, identify the car battery lead by grounding one lead of the test bulb to the chassis and checking the remaining exposed wires from the cut radio connector plug.

If your car is not wired for an audio unit :

Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for the battery, usually marked BAT.

Speakers

Identify the car speaker leads. There will be two leads for each speaker, usually color coded.

A handy way to identify the speaker leads and the speaker they connect with is to test the leads using a 1.5 V AA battery as follows.

Hold one lead against one pole of the battery and stroke the other lead across the other pole. You will hear a scraping sound in a speaker if you are holding a speaker lead.

If not, keep testing different lead combinations until you have located all the speaker leads. When you label them, include the speaker location for each.

Connect All Leads

Now that you have identified all the wires in the car, you're ready to begin connecting them to the stereo unit wires. The connection diagram ( Page 48) shows the proper connections and color coding of the leads.

We strongly recommend that you test the unit before making a final installation.

You can set the unit on the floor and make temporary connections to test the unit. Use electrical tape to cover all exposed wires.

Important: Connect the red power lead last, after you have made and insulated all other connections.

Ground

Connect the black ground lead of the power connector to the metal car chassis.

Speakers

Connect the speaker wires. See the wiring diagram for the proper hookups. Follow the diagram

carefully to avoid damaging the speakers and the stereo unit.

The speakers used must be able to handle more than 45W of audio power. If using an optional audio power, the speakers should be able to handle the maximum amplifier output power. Speakers with low input ratings can be damaged.

Speaker impedance should measure 4 - 8 Ω, which is typically marked on most speakers. Lower or higher impedance speakers will affect output and can cause both speaker and stereo unit damage.

Caution: Never ground the speaker cords. For example, do not use a chassis ground system or a three-wire speaker common system. Each speaker must be connected separately using parallel insulated wires. If in doubt about how your car's speakers are wired, please consult with your nearest professional installer.

Motor Antenna

Connect the vehicle motor antenna lead to the blue motor antenna relay control lead.

Battery

Connect the yellow battery lead to the correct radio wire or to the battery fuse port on the fuse block.

Antenna

Connect the antenna by plugging the antenna lead into the antenna receptacle.

Equipment

Connect any optional equipment such as an DVD video player according to the instructions furnished with the equipment. Read the operating and installation instructions of any equipment you will connect to this unit.

Power

Connect the red power lead to the correct car radio wire or to the appropriate fuse port on the fuse block.

If the stereo unit functions properly with all these connections made, disconnect the wires and proceed to the final installation.

Final Installation

Lead Connections

Connect all wires, making sure that each connection is insulated and secure. Bundle all loose wires and fasten them with tape so they won't fall down later.

Congratulations! After making a few final checks, you're ready to enjoy your new auto stereo system.

Final Checks

1. Make sure that all wires are properly connected and insulated.
2. Turn on the ignition to check the unit for proper operation.

If you have difficulties, consult your nearest authorized professional installer for assistance.
