■

This manual uses pictographs to show you how to use the product safely and to alert you to potential dangers resulting from improper connections and operations. The meanings of the pictographs are explained below. It is important that you fully understand the meanings of the pictographs in order to use this manual and the system properly.

Warning

This pictograph intends to alert you to the presence of important operating instructions and installation instructions. Failure to heed the instructions may result in severe injury or death.

Caution

This pictograph intends to alert you to the presence of important operating instructions and installation instructions. Failure to heed the instructions may result in injury or material damage.

Warning

Observe the following warnings when using this unit.

❑ The driver should neither watch the display nor operate

the system while driving.

Watching the display or operating the system will distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and can cause accidents.

Always stop the vehicle in a safe location and use the parking brake before watching the display or operating the system.

❑ Use the proper power supply.

This product is designed for operation with a negative grounded

12 V DC battery system. Never operate this product with other battery systems, especially a 24 V DC battery system.

❑ Protect the Deck Mechanism.

Do not insert any foreign objects into the slot of this unit.

❑ Do not disassemble or modify the unit.

Do not disassemble, modify the unit or attempt to repair the product yourself. If the product needs to be repaired, consult your dealer or an authorized Panasonic Servicenter.

❑ Do not use the unit when it is out of order.

If the unit is out of order (no power, no sound) or in an abnormal state (has foreign objects in it, is exposed to water, is smoking, or smells), turn it off immediately and consult your dealer.

❑ Refer fuse replacement to qualified service personnel.

When the fuse blows out, eliminate the cause and have it replaced with the fuse prescribed for this unit by a qualified service engineer. Incorrect replacement of the fuse may lead to smoke, fire, and damage to the product.

Observe the following warnings when installing.

❑ Disconnect the lead from the negative (–) battery termi-

nal before installation.

Wiring and installation with the negative (–) battery terminal connected may cause electrical shock and injury due to a short circuit.

Some cars equipped with the electrical safety system have specific procedures of battery terminal disconnection.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE MAY LEAD TO THE

UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY SYSTEM

RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND PERSONAL

INJURY OR DEATH.

❑ Never use safety-related components for installation,

grounding, and other such functions.

Do not use safety-related vehicle components (fuel tank, brake, suspension, steering wheel, pedals, airbag, etc.) for wiring or fixing the product or its accessories.

❑ Installing the product on the air bag cover or in a location

where it interferes with airbag operation is prohibited.

❑ Check for piping, gasoline tank, electric wiring, and other

items before installing the product.

If you need to open a hole in the vehicle chassis to attach or wire the product, first check where the wire harness, gasoline tank, and electric wiring are located. Then open the hole from outside if possible.

❑ Never install the product in a location where it interferes

with your field of vision.

❑ Never have the power cord branched to supply other

equipment with power.

❑ After installation and wiring, you should check the nor-

mal operation of other electrical equipment.

The continuation of their using in abnormal conditions may cause fire, electrical shock or a traffic accident.

❑ In the case of installation to an airbag equipped car, con-

firm warnings and cautions of the vehicle manufacturer before installation.

❑ Make sure the leads do not interfere with driving or get-

ting in and out of the vehicle.

❑ Insulate all exposed wires to prevent short circuiting.

Caution

Observe the following cautions when using this unit.

❑ Keep the sound volume at an appropriate level.

Keep the volume level low enough to be aware of road and traffic conditions while driving.

❑ This unit is designed for use exclusively in automo-

biles.

❑ Do not operate the unit for a prolonged period with the

engine turned off.

Operating the audio system for a long period of time with the engine turned off will drain the battery.

❑ Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or excessive

heat.

Otherwise these will raise the interior temperature of the unit, and it may lead to smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit.

❑ Do not use the product where it is exposed to water,

moisture, or dust.

Exposure of the unit to water, moisture, or dust may lead to smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit. Make especially sure that the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy days.

❑ To prevent the microphone from howling, keep proper

distance between the microphone and the speaker.

❑ Decrease the volume immediately whenever the howl-

ing is generated.

Failure to heed this may damage your hearing and speakers.

Observe the following cautions when installing.

❑ Refer wiring and installation to qualified service per-

sonnel.

When wiring, take care not to damage the leads. Prevent them from getting caught in the vehicle chassis, screws, and moving parts such as seat rails. Do not scratch, pull, bend or twist the leads. Do not run them near heat sources or place heavy objects on them. If leads must be run over sharp metal edges, protect the leads by winding them with vinyl tape or similar protection.

❑ Use the designated parts and tools for installation.

Use the supplied or designated parts and appropriate tools to install the product. The use of parts other than those supplied or designated may result in internal damage to the unit. Faulty installation may lead to an accident, a malfunction or fire.

<Correct> <Wrong>

Do not write on the disc label with a ballpoint pen or other hard-point pens.

¡

You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

¡

CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage them and make playback impossible.

¡

Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder

(CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.

¡

This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.

¡

This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA data or MP3.

¡

Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc for handling it.

Recording MP3 files on a CD-media

¡

You are recommended to minimize the chances of making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3 files.

¡

If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or files, the songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs may not play at all.

¡

Do not record files other than MP3 files and unnecessary folder on a disc.

¡

The name of MP3 file should be added by rules as shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each file system.

¡

You may encounter trouble in playing MP3 files or displaying the information of MP3 files recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders.
