Handling Compact discs  
Playing a CD that is dirty, scratched  
or warped can cause the sound to  
skip and the unit to operate  
incorrectly, resulting in worsened  
sound quality. Take the following  
precautions to prevent your CDs from  
getting scratched or damaged.  
Cleaning CDs  
Do Not Load CD Accessories  
If a CD has gotten dirty, wipe it off gently  
using a commercially available cleaning cloth  
or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the  
center of the disc and moving outward. Do  
not clean CDs with conventional record  
cleaners, anti-static formulas, or chemicals  
such as paint thinner or benzene.  
Do not use commercially available CD  
accessories that can be loaded into the CD  
slot, such as stabilizers, protective sheets, or  
CD cleaning discs, since they can cause the  
unit to malfunction.  
Removing the CD  
Only remove the CD from the machine in a  
horizontal direction, holding it flat. You may  
damage the surface of the CD if you try  
pulling it down as it ejects.  
Handling CDs  
• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD  
(the side opposite the label) when holding it.  
Checking New CDs for Burrs  
When playing a new CD for the first time,  
check that there are not any burrs stuck to  
the perimeter of the disc or in the central  
hole. CDs with burrs stuck on them may not  
load properly or may skip while playing.  
Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a  
similar utensil.  
Do Not Use Special Shape CDs  
• Be sure to use round shape CDs only for this  
unit and do not use any special shape CDs.  
Use of special shape CDs may cause the  
unit to malfunction.  
• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.

• Be sure to use CDs with disc mark  
only for this unit.  
Storing CDs  
• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct  
sunlight (such as a car seat or the  
dashboard) or other hot places.  
Burrs  
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the  
Labeled Side  
• Remove CDs from the unit when not  
listening to them for a while, and put them  
back in their cases. Do not pile up CDs that  
are removed from their cases or prop them  
against something.  
Do not use the CD with the label sticker  
stuck on it.  
Using such a CD may cause the CD to be  
deformed and the sticker to peel off,  
resulting in malfunction of the unit.

6. Install the unit in your car.  
7. Reconnect the - battery.  
8. Press the reset button.  
2CAUTION  
• 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.  
• If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so that the  
faceplate will not hit the lid when closing and opening.  
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires aren’t touching to  
cause a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with  
the same rating.  
• Do not let unconnected wires or terminals touch metal on the  
car or anything else conducting electricity. To prevent a short  
circuit, do not remove the caps on the ends of the unconnected  
wires or the terminals.

• 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.  
• After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,  
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.  
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar  
material.  
2CAUTION  
The use of any accessories except for those provided might  
result in damage to the unit. Make sure only to use the  
accessories shipped with the unit, as shown above.  
• Some disc changers need conversion cords for connection. See  
the section on "Safety Precautions" for details.  
• Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.

2CAUTION  
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). For example, if you connect the + connector  
of the left speaker to a front output terminal, do not connect  
the - connector to a rear output terminal.  
2WARNING  
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.
