DIGITAL RADIO
About DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting)
DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver digital quality sound without any annoying interference or signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data. In contrast to FM broadcast, where each program is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programs (called "services") to form one "ensemble."
The "primary component" (main radio station) is sometimes accompanied by a "secondary component" which can contain extra programs or other information.
Preparation:
1 Connect the supplied DAB antenna to the DAB antenna jack. (37)
2 Press repeatedly to select DIGITAL AUDIO.
3 Press and hold Q/→ (LIST UPDATE) to start the Service List update.
"LIST UPDATE" appears and update starts. "UPDATED" appears when update completes.
Updates take up to 3 minutes. No interruption (such as traffic information) is possible during updates.
- To cancel the Service List update: Press and hold Ⓠ/♂ (LIST UPDATE) again.

INSTALLATION/CONNECTION
▲ Warning
- The unit can only be used with a 12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
- Disconnect the battery's negative terminal before wiring and mounting.
- Do not connect Battery wire (yellow) and Ignition wire (red) to the car chassis or Ground wire (black) to prevent a short circuit.
• To prevent short circuit: - Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape.
- Be sure to ground this unit to the car's chassis again after installation.
- Secure the wires with cable clamps and wrap vinyl tape around the wires that come into contact with metal parts to protect the wires.
Caution
- For safety's sake, leave wiring and mounting to professionals. Consult the car audio dealer.
• Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal parts of this unit during and shortly after use of the unit. Metal parts such as the heat sink and enclosure become hot. - Do not connect the wires of speakers to the car chassis or Ground wire (black), or connect them in parallel.
- Mount the unit at an angle of less than 30^ .
- If your vehicle wiring harness does not have the ignition terminal, connect Ignition wire (red) to the terminal on the vehicle's fuse box which provides 12 V DC power supply and is turned on and off by the ignition key.
- Keep all cables away from heat dissipate metal parts.
- After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.
- If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires are not touching car's chassis, then replace the old fuse with one that has the same rating.
Basic procedure
1 Remove the key from the ignition switch, then disconnect the ⊖ terminal of the car battery.
2 Install the DAB antenna.
See Installing the DAB antenna. (-38)
3 Connect the wires properly.
See Wiring connection. (36, 37)
4 Install the unit to your car.

Wiringconnection
When connecting to an external amplifier, connect its ground wire to the car's chassis to avoid damaging the unit.
If your car does not have an ISO terminal:
We recommend installing the unit with a commercially available custom wiring harness specific for your car and leave this job to professionals for your safety. Consult your car audio dealer.

INSTALLATION/CONNECTION
Installing the DAB antenna
Connect the supplied DAB antenna to the DAB antenna jack. (-37)

Caution
- The film antenna (E) is exclusively for use inside the vehicle.
- Do not install at the following locations:
— where it may block the driver's view.
- where it may obstruct the operation of safety devices such as air bags.
— on movable glass surfaces such as the rear hatch.
- at side of vehicle (e.g. door, front quarter window).
- on rear window.
- Signal strength will weaken when installed at the following locations:
- on IR reflecting glass or locations covered with mirror type glass film.
- where it overlaps with genuine radio antenna (pattern).
— where it overlaps with window heating wires. - on glass that blocks radio signals (e.g. IR reflecting glass, thermal insulation glass).
- Poor reception may occur:
- due to noise when windscreen wiper, air conditioner, or motor is turned on.
– depending on the direction of the broadcast station with respect to the vehicle (antenna).
- Thoroughly wipe oil and dirt from the pasting surface with the supplied cleaner (H).
- Do not bend or damage the film antenna (E).
- It may not be possible to install on certain vehicles.
- Check the cable routing of the film antenna (E) and amplifier unit (F) before pasting.
- Do not apply any glass cleaner after pasting the film antenna (E).
Determine the antenna installation position
- The direction of the film antenna (E) changes depending on whether the film antenna (E) is installed on the right side or left side.
- Be sure to check the installation location of film antenna (E) before installing. Film antenna cannot be re-pasted.
- Separate from other antennas by at least 100 mm.
- Do not paste the amplifier unit (F) on the ceramic line (black part) around the front glass. Because there is not enough adhesion.
