Important safeguards

∙Read carefully through this manual to familiarize yourself with this high-quality sound system.

∙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.

∙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 temperature in the car becomes normal before operating the unit.

∙Keep the volume at a level at which you can hear outside warning sounds (horns sirens, etc.).

∙DO NOT open covers and do not repair yourself. Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.

∙Make sure you disconnect the power supply and aerial if you will not be using the system for a long period or during a thunderstorm.

∙Make sure you disconnect the power supply if the system appears to be working incorrectly, is making an unusual sound, has a strange smell, has smoke emitting from it or liquids have got inside it. Have a qualified technician check the system.

∙Stop the car before performing any complicated operation.

∙The unit is only designed for use with 4 speakers. Do not combine output for use with 2 speakers. Do not ground negative speaker leads to the chassis ground.

∙Do not install the unit in place where it is exposed to direct sunlight (including the faceplate), in order to avoid high heat.

∙The faceplate is a precision piece of equipment that contains sensitive electronic components. Do not subject it to excessive shock.

∙Be careful not to drop or shock the unit strongly, it may break or crack because it contain glass parts.

∙When extending the ignition, memory backup or ground cable, use diameter of 0.75mm or more automotive grade cable to avoid wire deterioration or damage to the wire coating
