SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE PURCHASED DEVICE IS ONLY SUITABLE FOR AN OP-
ERATION WITH A 12V ON-BOARD ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OF
A VEHICLE.
Otherwise fire hazard, risk of injury and electric shock
consists.
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ANY OPERATION OF THE SOUND
SYSTEM, WHICH DISTRACT YOU FROM A SAFE DRIVING.
Do
not make any procedures, which demand a longer attention. Per-
form these operations not until you have stopped the vehicle on a
safe place. Otherwise the risk of accident consists.
ADJUST THE SOUND VOLUME TO AN APPROPRIATE LEVEL,
THAT YOU ARE STILL ABLE TO HEAR EXTERIOR NOISES
WHILE DRIVING.
High performance sound systems in vehicles
may generate the acoustic pressure of a live concert. The perma-
nent listening to extreme loud music may cause the loss of your
hearing abilities. The hearing of extreme loud music while driving
may derogate your cognition of warning signals in the traffic. In the
interests of the common safeness, we suggest to drive with a lower
sound volume. Otherwise the risk of accident consists.
DO NOT COVER COOLING VENTS AND HEAT SINKS.
Other-
wise this may cause heat accumulation in the device and fire haz-
ard consists.
DO NOT OPEN THE DEVICE.
Otherwise fire hazard, risk of injury
and electric shock consists. Also this may cause a loss of the war-
ranty.
REPLACE FUSES ONLY WITH FUSE WITH THE SAME RAT-
ING.
Otherwise fire hazard and risk of electric shock consists.
DO NOT USE THE DEVICE ANY LONGER, IF A MALFUNCTION,
WHICH REMAINS UNREMEDIED.
Refer in this case to the chap-
ter TROUBLE SHOOTING. Otherwise risk of injury and the dam-
age of the device consists. Commit the device to an authorized
retailer.
INTERCONNECTION AND INSTALLATION SHOULD BE AC-
COMPLISHED BY SKILLED STAFF ONLY.
The interconnection
and installation of this device demands technical aptitude and ex-
perience. For your own safeness, commit the interconnection and
installation to your car audio retailer, where you have purchased
the device.
DISCONNECT THE GROUND CONNECTION FROM THE VE-
HICLE’S BATTERY BEFORE INSTALLATION.
Before you start
with the installation of the sound system, disconnect by any means
the ground supply wire from the battery, to avoid any risk of electric
shock and short circuits.
DO NOT INSTALL THE DEVICE AT LOCATIONS, WHERE IT
WILL BE EXPOSED TO HIGH HUMIDITY AND DUST.
Install the
device at a location, where it will be protected from high humidity
and dust. If humidity and dust attain inside the device, malfunctions
may be caused.
MOUNT THE DEVICE AND OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE
SOUND SYSTEM SUFFICIENTLY.
Otherwise the device and com-
ponents may get loose and act as dangerous objects, which could
cause serious harm and damages in the passenger room.
ENSURE NOT TO DAMAGE COMPONENTS, WIRES AND CA-
BLES OF THE VEHICLE WHEN YOU DRILL THE MOUNTING
HOLES.
If you drill the mounting holes for the installation into the
vehicle’s chassis, ensure by any means, not to damage, block or
tangent the fuel pipe, the gas tank, other wires or electrical cables.
ENSURE CORRECT CONNECTION OF ALL TERMINALS.
Faulty
connections may could cause fire hazard and lead to damages of
the device.
DO NOT INSTALL AUDIO CABLES AND POWER SUPPLY
WIRES TOGETHER.
Ensure while installation not to lead the audio
cables between the head unit and the sound system together with
the power supply wires on the same side of the vehicle. The best is
a areal separated installation in the left and right cable channel of
the vehicle. Therewith a overlap of interferences on the audio sig-
nal will be avoided. This stands also for the equipped bass-remote
wire, which should be installed not together with the power supply
wires, but rather with the audio signal cables.
ENSURE THAT CABLES MAY NOT CAUGHT UP IN CLOSE-BY
OBJECTS.
Install all the wires and cables like described on the
following pages, therewith these may not hinder the driver. Cables
and wires which are installed close-by the steering wheel, gear le-
ver or the brake pedal, may caught up and cause highly dangerous
situations.
DO NOT SPLICE ELECTRICAL WIRES.
The electrical wires
should not be bared, to provide power supply to other devices.
Otherwise the load capacity of the wire may get overloaded. Use
therefor a appropriate distribution block. Otherwise fire hazard and
risk of electric shock consists.
DO NOT USE BOLTS AND SCREW NUTS OF THE BRAKE SYS-
TEM AS GROUND POINT.
Never use for the installation or the
ground point bolts and screw-nuts of the brake system, steering
system or other security-relevant components. Otherwise fire haz-
ard consists or the driving safety will be derogated.
ENSURE NOT TO BEND OR SQUEEZE CABLES AND WIRES
BY SHARP OBJECTS.
Do not install cables and wires not close-
by movable objects like the seat rail or may bent or harmed by
sharp and barbed edges. If you lead a wire or cable through the
hole in a metal sheet, protect the insulation with a rubber grommet.
KEEP AWAY SMALL PARTS AND JACKS FROM CHILDREN.
If objects like these will be swallowed, the risk of serious injuries
consists. Consult promptly a medical doctor, if a child swallowed a
small object.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE THE FIRST OPERATION!
