¡Please read these instructions (including “Limited Warranty” and “Customer Services Directory”) carefully before using this product  
and keep this manual for future reference.  
Do not install the product where it is exposed to strong  
vibrations or is unstable.  
Caution  
Avoid slanted or strongly curved surfaces for installation. If the  
installation is not stable, the unit may fall down while driving and  
this can lead to an accident or injury.  
Observe the following cautions when using this

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.  
Installation Angle  
The product should be installed in a horizontal position with the  
front end up at a convenient angle, but not more than 30˚.  
The user should bear in mind that in some areas there may be  
restrictions on how and where this unit must be installed.  
Consult your dealer for further details.  
Wear gloves for safety. Make sure that wiring is com-  
pleted before installation.  
To prevent damage to the unit, do not connect the  
power connector until the whole wiring is completed.  
Do not connect more than one speaker to one set of  
speaker leads. (except for connecting to a tweeter)  
Observe the following cautions when handling the  
battery for the remote control unit.  
Use only specified battery (CR2025).  
Match the polarity of the battery with the (+) and (–) marks in  
the battery case.  
Observe the following cautions when installing.  
Refer wiring and installation to qualified service per-  
sonnel.  
Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience. For  
maximum safety, have it installed by your dealer. Panasonic is  
not liable for any problems resulting from your own installation  
of the unit.  
Follow the instructions to install and wire the product.  
Not following the instructions to properly install and wire the  
product could cause an accident or fire.  
Replace dead battery as soon as possible.  
Remove the battery from the remote control unit when not using  
it for an extended period of time.

them with vinyl tape) before disposal or storage.  
Dispose of the battery according to the local regulations.  
Do not disassemble, recharge, heat or short the battery. Do not  
throw a battery into a fire or water.  
In case of battery leakage  
Thoroughly wipe the battery liquid off the battery case and insert  
new battery.  
If any part of your body or clothing comes into contact with bat-  
tery liquid, wash it with plenty of water.  
If battery liquid comes into contact with your eyes, wash them  
with plenty of water and get immediate medical attention.  
Take care not to damage the leads.  
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.  
Do not block the air vent or the cooling plate of the unit.  
Blocking these parts will cause the interior of the unit to over-  
heat and will result in fire or other damage.  
The following applies only in the U.S.A.

How to hold a disc  
¡ Do not touch the underside of a disc.  
¡ Do not scratch on a disc.  
Printed side  
¡ Do not bend a disc.  
¡ When not in use, keep a disc in a case.  
Do not use irregularly shaped discs.  
Do not leave discs in the following places:  
¡ Direct sunlight  
¡ Near car heaters  
¡ Dirty, dusty and damp areas  
¡ Seats and dashboards  
Do not use irregularly shaped discs.  
<Wrong>

<Correct>  
Do not attach any seals or labels to your discs.  
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 and make  
playback impossible.  
¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or  
displaying the information of MP3/WMA files recorded with  
certain writing software or CD recorders.  
¡ The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to  
each file depending on the file format.  
¡ This unit does not have the play list function.  
¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of  
Disc-at-Once is recommended.  
¡ 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.  
Supported file systems  
ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Apple Extension to ISO 9660, Joliet,

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

the songs may not play in the intended order, or some  
songs may not play at all.
