Precautions  
This unit features a number of sophisticated  
functions ensuring superior reception and oper-  
ation. All the functions have been designed for  
the easiest possible use, but many are not self-  
explanatory. This operation manual will help you  
benefit fully from this unit’s potential and to  
maximize your listening enjoyment.  
We recommend that you familiarize yourself  
with the functions and their operation by read-  
ing through the manual before you begin using  
this unit. It is especially important that you read  
and observe precautions on this page and in  
other sections.  
• Keep this manual handy as a reference for  
operating procedures and precautions.  
• Always keep the volume low enough so you  
can hear sounds outside of the car.  
• Protect this product from moisture.  
• If the battery is disconnected or discharged,  
the preset memory will be erased and must be  
reprogrammed.  
• Should this product fail to operate properly,  
contact your dealer or nearest authorized

This manual mainly explains remote control  
operation. However, in addition to those func-  
tions related with DVD/Video CD/CD operation  
that can only be operated by the remote control,  
there are also functions that can be operated  
similarly by the head unit and functions that can  
only be operated by the buttons provided for the  
head unit.

Video CD and CD  
Disc organization  
On CDs and Video CDs, the contents are divided  
into tracks. One track usually corresponds to  
one song. On some discs, tracks may also fea-  
ture an index.  
With Video CDs featuring PBC (Playback  
Control), you can use a menu to perform play-  
back operations. It may not be possible to use  
functions such as repeat and search.  
DVD  
On DVD-Video discs, the contents are divided  
into titles which are in turn divided into chap-  
ters.  
With video material, a single work (movie etc.)  
usually corresponds to a single title, with differ-  
ent scenes corresponding to separate chapters.  
With karaoke discs, one song corresponds to  
one title.

Terms of DVD/Video CD  
DTS  
This stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is a  
surround system delivering multi-channel audio  
from up to 6 independent sources.  
To enjoy discs featuring DTS audio recording,  
you must connect this unit’s optical digital out-  
put jacks to the optical digital input jacks of a  
DTS compatible amp or decoder.  
Aspect Ratio  
This is the width-to-height ratio of a TV screen. A  
regular display has an aspect ratio of 4:3. Wide-  
screen displays have an aspect ratio of 16:9,  
providing a bigger picture for exceptional pres-  
ence and atmosphere.  
Linear PCM (LPCM)  
Chapter  
This stands for Linear Pulse Code Modulation,  
which is the signal recording system used for  
music CDs. Compared to music CDs, which  
feature 44.1 kHz/16-bit recordings, DVDs feature  
48 kHz/16-bit – 96 kHz/24-bit recordings. The  
result is sound quality even higher than that  
provided by music CDs.  
DVD titles are in turn divided into chapters  
which are numbered in the same way as the  
chapters of a book. With DVDs featuring chap-  
ters, you can quickly find a desired scene with  
chapter search.  
Dolby Digital 1  
Dolby Digital provides multi-channel audio from  
up to 5.1 independent channels. This system is  
the same as the Dolby Digital surround sound  
system used in theaters.  
To enjoy Dolby Digital entertainment, you must  
connect this unit’s optical digital output jacks to  
the optical digital input jacks of a Dolby Digital  
compatible amp.  
MPEG  
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts Group,  
and is an international video image compres-  
sion standard. Some DVDs feature digital audio  
compressed and recorded using this system.  
Multi-Angle  
With regular TV programs, although multiple  
cameras are used to simultaneously shoot  
scenes, only images from one camera at a time  
are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs feature  
scenes shot from multiple angles, letting you  
choose your viewing angle as desired.

Multi-Audio (Multilingual Dialog)  
Playback Control (PBC)  
Some DVDs feature dialog recorded in multiple  
languages. Dialog in up to 8 languages can be  
recorded on a single disc, letting you choose as  
desired.  
This is a playback control signal recorded on  
Video CDs (Version 2.0). Using menu displays  
provided by Video CDs with PBC lets you enjoy  
playback of simple interactive software and  
software with search functions. You can also  
enjoy viewing high- and standard-resolution still  
images.  
Multi-Subtitle  
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be recorded  
on a single DVD, letting you choose as desired.  
Region Number  
DVD players and DVD discs feature region num-  
bers indicating the area in which they were  
purchased. Playback of a DVD is not possible  
unless it features the same region number as  
the DVD player. This product’s region number is  
displayed on the bottom of this product.  
Optical Digital Output  
By transmitting the audio signal as a digital  
signal, it’s possible to minimize any loss of  
sound quality. Optical digital output refers to the  
transmission (output) of a digital audio signal  
via optical cable. (The amp or other component  
on the reception side must have optical digital  
inputs.)  
Title  
DVDs have a high data capacity, enabling  
recording of multiple movies on a single disc. If,  
for example, one disc contains three separate  
movies, they are divided into Title 1, Title 2 and  
Title 3. This lets you enjoy the convenience of  
title search and other functions.  
Parental Lock  
Some DVDs with violent or adult-oriented  
scenes feature parental lock which prevents  
children from viewing such scenes. With this  
kind of disc, if you set this unit’s parental lock  
level, playback of scenes inappropriate for chil-  
dren will not be possible, or these scenes will be  
skipped.

• Speakers connected to this unit must be high-  
power types with minimum rating of 50 W and  
impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting speak-  
ers with output and/or impedance values  
other than those noted here may result in the  
speakers catching fire, emitting smoke, or  
becoming damaged.  
Notes  
• This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery  
and negative grounding. Before installing it in  
a recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the  
battery voltage.  
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be  
sure to disconnect the battery cable before  
beginning installation.  
• When this product’s source is switched ON, a  
control signal is output through the  
• Refer to the owner’s manual for details on  
connecting the power amp and other units,  
then make connections correctly.  
• Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhe-  
sive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive  
tape around them where they lie against  
metal parts.  
• Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch  
any moving parts, such as the gear shift,  
handbrake, and seat rails. Do not route wiring  
in places that get hot, such as near the heater  
outlet. If the insulation of the wiring melts or  
gets torn, there is a danger of the wiring short-  
circuiting to the vehicle body.  
• Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into  
the engine compartment to connect to the  
battery. This will damage the lead insulation  
and cause a very dangerous short.  
blue/white lead. Connect to an external power  
amp’s system remote control or the car’s  
Auto-antenna relay control terminal (max. 300  
mA 12 V DC). If the car features a glass  
antenna, connect to the antenna booster  
power supply terminal.  
• When an external power amp is being used  
with this system, be sure not to connect the  
blue/white lead to the amp’s power terminal.  
Likewise, do not connect the blue/white lead  
to the power terminal of the auto-antenna.  
Such connection could cause excessive cur-  
rent drain and malfunction.  
To avoid short-circuiting, cover the discon-  
nected lead with insulating tape. Especially,  
insulate the unused speaker leads without  
fail. There is a possibility of short-circuiting if  
the leads are not insulated.  
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the pro-  
tection circuit may fail to work when it should.  
• Never feed power to other equipment by cut-  
ting the insulation of the power supply lead of  
the unit and tapping into the lead. The current  
capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing  
overheating.  
To prevent incorrect connection, the input  
side of the IP-BUS connector is blue, and the  
output side is black. Connect the connectors  
of the same colors correctly.  
• When replacing fuse, be sure to use only fuse  
of the rating prescribed on this unit.  
• Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed,  
never wire so the speaker leads are directly  
grounded or the left and right speaker  
leads are common.

• If installation angle exceeds 30° from horizon-  
tal, the unit might not give its optimum perfor-  
mance.  
Notes  
• Before finally installing the unit, connect the  
wiring temporarily, making sure it is all con-  
nected up properly, and the unit and the sys-  
tem work properly.  
• Use only the parts included with the unit to  
ensure proper installation. The use of unau-  
thorized parts can cause malfunctions.  
• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation  
requires the drilling of holes or other modifi-  
cations of the vehicle.  
• Install the unit where it does not get in the  
driver’s way and cannot injure the passenger  
if there is a sudden stop, like an emergency  
stop.  
• The cords must not cover up the area shown  
in the figure below. This is necessary to allow  
the amplifires to radiate freely.  
• The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it  
overheats, so don’t install the unit anywhere  
hot — for instance, near a heater outlet.  
Do not close this area.
