Caution
■
If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC
position, connect the ignition wires to a
power source that can be turned on and
off with the ignition key. If you connect
the ignition wire to a power source with
a constant voltage supply, as with battery
wires, the battery may die.
Do not use your own screws. Use only the
screws provided.
Install this unit in the console of your
vehicle. Make sure the faceplate will not hit
the lid of the console (if any) when closing
and opening.
Basic procedure
1 Remove the key from the ignition switch,
then disconnect the · terminal of the
car battery.
2 Make proper input and output wire
connections.
\ <Wiring connection> (page 32)
3 Install the unit to your car.
\ <Installing the unit> (page 33)
4 Reconnect the · terminal of the car
battery.
■
■
■
After the unit is installed, check whether the
brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car
are working properly.
5 Reset the unit. (page 4)
■
■
Mount the unit so that the mounting angle
is 30° or less.
If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
are not touching to cause a short circuit,
then replace the old fuse with one that has
the same rating.
Connect the speaker wires correctly to the
terminals to which they correspond. The
unit may be damaged or fail to work if you
share the · wires or ground them to any
metal part in the car.
When only two speakers are being
connected to the system, connect the
connectors either to both the front output
terminals or to both the rear output
terminals (do not mix front and rear).
Mounting and wiring this product requires
skills and experience. For safety’s sake, leave
this work to professionals.
Warning
■
The unit can only be installed in a car with a
12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and
■
the battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis
(ground), you may cause a short circuit,
that in turn may start a fire. Always connect
those wires to the power source running
through the fuse box.
■
■
■
■
Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal
and make all electrical connections before
installing the unit.
Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape
■
or other similar material. To prevent a short
circuit, do not remove the caps on the ends
of the unconnected wires or the terminals.
■
Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s
chassis again after installation.
If the power is not turned ON (“PROTECT”

For Good Reception
To assure good reception, note the following:
■
Communicate with the cell-phone within
the line-of-sight distance of 10 m (30
ft). The communication range becomes
shorter depending on the surrounding
environment. The communication
range also becomes shorter when there
is an obstacle between this unit and
the cell-phone. The above maximum
communication range (10 m) is not always
assured.
■
A broadcast station or walkie-talkie located
nearby can interfere with communication
due to too strong signal.
