Important notes

What you need to know

Before using your new car audio system, please read through the following informati- on carefully.

Traffic safety

As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your responsibility to pay attention to the traffic situation at all times. Never use your car audio system in a way that could distract you.

Please keep in mind that you travel a di- stance of 14 m per second at a speed of only 50 km/h.

Should the traffic situation become particu- larly demanding, we advise you not to use the audio system.

Always make sure that you are still able to hear any warning signals coming from out- side the vehicle, such as police or fire engi- ne sirens, so that you can react accordin- gly.

Consequently, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car audio system while you are driving.

Installation

If you would like to install your new car ste- reo yourself or add other audio components to existing ones, then please read the enclo- sed instructions on installation and connec- tion carefully.

In order to ensure that the unit operates pro- perly the positive power supply line must be connected via the ignition and the perma- nent +12 V lead.

Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs! This will result in damage to the unit output sta- ges.
