Connection/Installation
Cautions
- Run all ground (earth) leads to a common ground (earth) point.
- Do not get the leads trapped 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 power supply lead ⑥ to the unit and speakers before connecting it to the auxiliary power connector.
- Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected leads with electrical tape for safety.
Precautions
- Choose the installation location carefully so that the unit will not interfere with normal driving operations.
- Avoid installing the unit in areas subject to dust, dirt, excessive vibration, or high temperature, such as in direct sunlight or near heater ducts.
- 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 degrees.

Precautions
- If the car has been parked in a sunny place, do not turn on the device until it has cooled down. Do not leave the front panel or portable audio devices inside the car, as high temperatures resulting from direct sunlight may cause damage.
- When the device is in operation, the antenna extends automatically with an electric motor.
Condensation
If condensation forms inside the device, remove the disc and wait for about an hour until the moisture evaporates. Otherwise, malfunctions may occur during operation.
To maintain high sound quality
Do not spill liquids on the device or discs.
Notes on discs
-Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources, such as hot air vents. Do not leave discs in a car parked in a sunny place.
-Wipe discs with a soft cloth from the center to the edge. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, or record cleaners.

-This device is designed for playback of discs that meet the Compact Disc (CD) standard. DualDiscs and some music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies do not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard and therefore may not play on this device. -Discs that this device cannot play:
- Discs with labels, stickers, and also with adhesive tape attached. Using such discs may cause malfunctions or damage to the disc. - Discs of non-standard shape (for example, heart, square, star shaped). Otherwise, this may lead to damage to the device. - Discs with a diameter of 8 cm.
