experience difficulty in operating this
product, pull over, park your vehicle in a
safe location and apply the handbrake
before making the necessary
adjustments.
• Do not install this product where it may
(i) obstruct the driver’s vision,
(ii) impair the performance of any of the
vehicle’s operating systems of safety
features, including airbags, hazard lamp
buttons, or
(iii) impair the driver’s ability to safely
operate the vehicle.
In some cases, it may not be possible to

WARNING
Pioneer does not recommend that you
install this product yourself. This product is
designed for professional installation only.
We recommend that only authorised
Pioneer service personnel, who have
special training and experience in mobile
electronics, set up and install this product.
NEVER SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF.
Installing or servicing this product and its
connecting cables may expose you to the
risk of electric shock or other hazards, and
can cause damage to this product that is
not covered by warranty.
WARNING
Do not take any steps to tamper with or
disable the handbrake interlock system
which is in place for your protection.
Tampering with or disabling the
handbrake interlock system could result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
• Secure all wiring with cable clamps or
electrical tape. Do not allow any bare
wiring to remain exposed.
• Do not directly connect the yellow lead of
this product to the vehicle battery. If the
lead is directly connected to the battery,
engine vibration may eventually cause
the insulation to fail at the point where
the wire passes from the passenger
compartment into the engine
compartment. If the yellow lead’s
insulation tears as a result of contact with
metal parts, short-circuiting can occur,
resulting in considerable danger.
• It is extremely dangerous to allow cables
to become wound around the steering
column or gearstick. Be sure to install this
product, its cables, and wiring away in
such so that they will not obstruct or
hinder driving.

Important safeguards
Precautions before
connecting the system
• Make sure that the cables and wires will
not interfere with or become caught in
any of the vehicle’s moving parts,
especially the steering wheel, gearstick,
handbrake, sliding seat tracks, doors, or
any of the vehicle’s controls.
• Do not route wires where they will be
exposed to high temperatures. If the
insulation heats up, wires may become
damaged, resulting in a short circuit or
malfunction and permanent damage to
the product.
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the
protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse
resistor or filter, etc.) may fail to work
properly.
• Never feed power to other electronic
products by cutting the insulation of the
power supply lead of this product and
tapping into the lead. The current
capacity of the lead will be exceeded,
causing overheating.
• Use this product with a 12-volt battery
and negative earthing only. Failure to do
so may result in a fire or malfunction.
• To avoid shorts in the electrical system,
be sure to disconnect the (–) battery
cable before installation.
WARNING
• When speaker output is used by 4
channels , use speakers over 50 W
(Maximum input power) and between 4
Ω to 8 Ω (impedance value). Do not use 1
Ω to 3 Ω speakers for this unit.
• When rear speaker output is used by 2 Ω
of subwoofer, use speakers over 70 W
(Maximum input power).
*Please refer to connection for a
connection method.
• The black lead is earth. Please earth this
lead separately from the earth of high
current products such as power amps. Do
not earth more than one product
together with the earth from another
product. For example, you must
separately earth any amp unit away from
the earth of this product. Connecting
earths together can cause a fire and/or
damage the products if their earths
became detached.
• When replacing the fuse, be sure to only
use a fuse of the rating prescribed on this
product.
• This product cannot be installed in a
vehicle without ACC (accessory) position
on the ignition switch.
• To avoid short-circuiting, cover the
disconnected lead with insulating tape. It
is especially important to insulate all
unused speaker leads, which if left
uncovered may cause a short circuit.
• For connecting a power amp or other
devices to this product, refer to the
manual for the product to be connected.
• The graphical symbol placed on
the product means direct current.
• When the ignition switch is turned on
(ACC ON), a control signal is output
through the blue/white lead. Connect to
an external power amp’s system remote
