For AVIC-F40BT users
Do not install this navigation system in a posi-
tion where the opening of the LCD panel is ob-
structed by any obstacles, such as the
gearstick. Before installing this navigation sys-
tem, be sure to leave sufficient space so that
the LCD panel does not obstruct the gearstick
when it is fully opened. This may cause inter-
ference with the gearstick, or a malfunction of
the mechanism of this navigation system.

Installation notes
!
Do not install the navigation system in
places subject to high temperatures or hu-
midity, such as:
—
Places close to a heater, vent or air con-
ditioner.
—
Places exposed to direct sunlight, such
as on top of the dashboard.
—
Places that may be exposed to rain,
such as close to the door or on the vehi-
cle
’
s floor.
!
Install this navigation system in an area
strong enough to bear its weight. Choose a
position where this navigation system can
be firmly installed, and install it securely. If
this navigation system is not securely in-
stalled, the current location of the vehicle
cannot be displayed correctly.
!
Install the navigation unit horizontally on a
surface within 0 to 30 degrees tolerance
(within 5 degrees to the left or right). Impro-
per installation of the unit with the surface
tilted more than these tolerances increases
the potential for errors in the vehicle's loca-
tion display, and might otherwise cause re-
duced display performance.

When installing, to ensure proper heat dis-
persal when using this unit, make sure you
leave ample space behind the rear panel
and wrap any loose cables so they are not
blocking the vents.
