Contents
PRECAUTIONS
• Use only in a 12-volt DC negative-ground
electrical system.
• Disconnect the vehicle’s negative battery
terminal while mounting and connecting the
unit.
• When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one
with an identical amperage rating. Using
a fuse with a higher amperage rating may
cause serious damage to the unit.
• DO NOT attempt to disassemble the unit.
Laser beams from the optical pickup are
dangerous to the eyes.
• Make sure that pins or other foreign objects
do not get inside the unit, they may cause
malfunctions, or create safety hazards such
as electrical shock or laser beam exposure.
• If you have parked the car for a long time in
hot or cold weather, wait until the tempera-
ture in the car becomes normal before oper-
ating the unit.
• Keep the volume at a level at which you can
hear outside warning sounds (horns sirens,
etc.).
CD Notes
• Playing a defective or dusty CD can cause
dropouts in sound.
• Hold CDs as illustrated.
• Do not touch the unlabeled side.
• Do not attach any seal, label or data protec-
tion sheet to either side of a disc.
• Do not expose a CD to direct sunlight or ex-
cessive heat.
• Wipe a dirty CD from the center outward
with a cleaning cloth.
• Never use solvents such as benzine or alco-
hol.
• This unit cannot play 3-inch (8 cm) CDs.
NEVER insert a 3-inch CD contained in the
adapter or an irregularly shaped CD. The
unit may not be able to eject it, resulting in a
malfunction.
• In addition to ordinary CDs, this unit can
playback a CD-R or CD-RW, MP3.
Before Operation
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as
this will block outside sounds, making driv-
ing dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any compli-
cated operation.
CAUTION
• DO NOT open covers and do not repair
yourself. Consult the dealer or an experi-
enced technician for help.
