neer. Incorrect replacement of the fuse may lead to smoke, fire,
and damage to the product.
Observe the following warnings when installing.
❑
Disconnect the lead from the negative (–) battery termi-
nal before installation.
Wiring and installation with the negative (–) battery terminal con-
nected may cause electrical shock and injury due to a short circuit.
Some cars equipped with the electrical safety system have specific
procedures of battery terminal disconnection.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE MAY LEAD TO THE
UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY SYSTEM
RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
❑
Never use safety-related components for installation,
grounding, and other such functions.
Do not use safety-related vehicle components (fuel tank, brake,
suspension, steering wheel, pedals, airbag, etc.) for wiring or fix-
ing the product or its accessories.
❑
Installing the product on the air bag cover or in a location
where it interferes with airbag operation is prohibited.
❑
Check for piping, gasoline tank, electric wiring, and other
items before installing the product.
If you need to open a hole in the vehicle chassis to attach or wire
the product, first check where the wire harness, gasoline tank, and
electric wiring are located. Then open the hole from outside if pos-
sible.
❑
Never install the product in a location where it interferes
with your field of vision.
❑
Never have the power cord branched to supply other
equipment with power.
❑
After installation and wiring, you should check the nor-
mal operation of other electrical equipment.
The continuation of their using in abnormal conditions may cause
fire, electrical shock or a traffic accident.
❑
In the case of installation to an airbag equipped car, con-
firm warnings and cautions of the vehicle manufacturer
before installation.
❑
Make sure the leads do not interfere with driving or get-
ting in and out of the vehicle.
❑
Insulate all exposed wires to prevent short circuiting.
This pictograph intends to alert you to the presence of
important operating instructions and installation
instructions. Failure to heed the instructions may
result in severe injury or death.
■
Read the operating instructions for the unit and all other compo-
nents of your car audio system carefully before using the system.
They contain instructions about how to use the system in a safe and
effective manner. Panasonic assumes no responsibility for any prob-
lems resulting from failure to observe the instructions given in this
manual.
■
This manual uses pictographs to show you how to use the product
safely and to alert you to potential dangers resulting from improper
connections and operations. The meanings of the pictographs are
explained below. It is important that you fully understand the mean-
ings of the pictographs in order to use this manual and the system
properly.
Warning
This pictograph intends to alert you to the presence of
important operating instructions and installation instruc-
tions. Failure to heed the instructions may result in
injury or material damage.
Caution
Caution
Observe the following cautions when using this
unit.
❑
Keep the sound volume at an appropriate level.
Keep the volume level low enough to be aware of road and traffic
conditions while driving.
❑
This unit is designed for use exclusively in automo-
biles.
❑
Do not operate the unit for a prolonged period with the
engine turned off.
Operating the audio system for a long period of time with the
engine turned off will drain the battery.
❑
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or excessive
heat.
Otherwise these will raise the interior temperature of the unit,
and it may lead to smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit.
❑
Do not use the product where it is exposed to water,
moisture, or dust.
Exposure of the unit to water, moisture, or dust may lead to
smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit. Make especially sure
that the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy days.
❑
Set the volume level to low enough before the AUX con-
nection is completed.
Failure to observe this, the loud noise may come out and dam-
age your speakers and your hearing. Direct connection of the
speaker/headphone output of an external device without any
attenuator may distort sound or damage the connected external
device.
Observe the following cautions when installing.
❑
Refer wiring and installation to qualified service per-
sonnel.
Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience. For
maximum safety, have it installed by your dealer. Panasonic is
not liable for any problems resulting from your own installation
of the unit.
❑
Follow the instructions to install and wire the product.
Not following the instructions to properly install and wire the
product could cause an accident or fire.
❑
Take care not to damage the leads.
When wiring, take care not to damage the leads. Prevent them
from getting caught in the vehicle chassis, screws, and moving
parts such as seat rails. Do not scratch, pull, bend or twist the
leads. Do not run them near heat sources or place heavy objects
on them. If leads must be run over sharp metal edges, protect
the leads by winding them with vinyl tape or similar protection.
❑
Use the designated parts and tools for installation.
Use the supplied or designated parts and appropriate tools to
install the product. The use of parts other than those supplied or
designated may result in internal damage to the unit. Faulty
installation may lead to an accident, a malfunction or fire.
❑
Do not block the air vent or the cooling plate of the unit.
Blocking these parts will cause the interior of the unit to over-
heat and will result in fire or other damage.
❑
Do not install the product where it is exposed to strong
vibrations or is unstable.
Avoid slanted or strongly curved surfaces for installation. If the
installation is not stable, the unit may fall down while driving and
this can lead to an accident or injury.
❑
Installation Angle
The product should be installed in a horizontal position with the
front end up at a convenient angle, but not more than 30˚.
The user should bear in mind that in some areas there may be
restrictions on how and where this unit must be installed.
Consult your dealer for further details.
❑
Wear gloves for safety. Make sure that wiring is com-
pleted before installation.
❑
To prevent damage to the unit, do not connect the
power connector until the whole wiring is completed.

Notes on Discs
Notes on CD/CD Media (CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW)
Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
¡
You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs
recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due
to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
¡
CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and
high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them
inside a car for extended periods may damage them and
make playback impossible.
¡
Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due
to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder
(CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.
¡
This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is
not closed.
¡
This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain
other than CD-DA or MP3 data .
¡
Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc
for handling it.
Recording MP3 files on a CD-media
¡
You are recommended to minimize the chances of mak-
ing a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3 files.
¡
If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 files, the
songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs
may not play at all.
¡
Do not record files other than MP3 files and unnecessary
folder on a disc.
¡
The name of MP3 file should be added by rules as shown in
the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of
each file system.
¡
You may encounter trouble in playing MP3 files or display-
ing the information of MP3 files recorded with certain writ-
ing software or CD recorders.
¡
The file extension “.mp3“ should be assigned to each file
depending on the file format.
¡
This unit does not have the play list function.
¡
Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of
Disc-at-Once is recommended.
