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  
unit.  
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.

tion is completed.  
Failure to observe this may cause loud noise and, con-  
sequently, damage your speakers and your hearing.  
Do not connect the front panel AUX directly with a  
speaker/headphone output. Failure to observe this may  
distort sound and break the internal amplifier.  
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

Use only specified battery (CR2025).  
Match the polarity of the battery with the (+) and (–) marks in  
the battery case.  
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.
