+12v

is present on it in addition to the reverse light illumination. After backing up, the unit will return to the previous status. As

long as +12 Volts are connected to this cable, the video input will be active and the image of the external signal source connected here will be visible on the screen. The rest of the unit’s functions will not work

In order to use the remote control please remove the insulating film extending from the battery compartment if the product is equipped with one. If operation becomes unstable or the range decreases, please replace

the battery with a new one: CR 2025; 3V button cell.

• When using the remote control, aim it toward the unit’s display from a maximum distance of 2 or 3 meters.

• In order to replace the battery, turn the remote control on its back then pull out the battery tray with the battery. Make sure the positive terminal of the inserted battery faces upward. Follow the directions on the bottom

of the remote control.

waRNINGS

1. Before starting to use the player, read these instructions carefully, then keep them in an accessible place for future reference.

2. Seek professional assistance if necessary to prevent damaging the unit or motor vehicle.

3. Depending on the compressed files, the MP3 compression program used, and the quality of the USB/SD memory, anomalies may occur during playback which are not due to the unit malfunctioning.

4. The playback of copy protected DRM files is not guaranteed.

5. It is also possible to connect MP3/MP4 players using a USB cable but avoid connecting external hard drives this way.

6. Do not store any additional files on the USB/SD device other than playable files because they can slow down or prevent playback.

7. Do not connect phones, navigation devices or other equipment to the USB port for purposes of recharging.

8. Do not store data media in the vehicle if it is exposed to freezing or extremely high temperatures.

9. While underway, do not do anything that distracts your attention from driving. Manipulating the player while driving can result in accidents. If needed, stop the car while manipulating the player.

10. Spend as little time as possible watching the display. Doing so can distract your attention from the road, and result in accidents.

11. Do not listen to the player too loud. Set a volume that allows you hear external sounds while driving. Extreme volumes can also cause permanent damage to your ears.

12. Do not disassemble or tamper with the player, as that can cause fire, accidents, or electric shock. Incorrect use or installation renders the warranty void.

13. Only for use in cars with a 12 V battery and a negative ground. Using the player for any other purpose can result in electric shock, damage, or fire. The player was designed exclusively for use in vehicles.

14. Always use melting fuses with the proper values. When replacing a fuse, make sure that the new fuse has the same nominal value as the one you are replacing. Using a different fuse can cause fire or damage.

15. Do not block the player’s cooling vents, as that can cause its circuits to overheat, resulting in fire. Install the player properly to ensure adequate ventilation. The air vents around the edge must be left free.

16. Make sure to connect the player correctly. Incorrect connections can result in fire or other damage.

17. Prior to wiring/installation, be sure to remove the car battery’s negative terminal connection. This will prevent any electric shock or malfunction.

18. Before connecting/installing the player disconnect the negative pole of the car’s battery. Doing so helps you prevent electric shock or short circuits.

19. While installing the player never cut through cables or damage their insulation. Doing so can result in short circuit and fire.
