6 Important safety instructions
Please read and strictly observe the following instructions!
ƒ Never open the case of the car radio; it does not contain
any serviceable parts! If the case is open, there is a risk
of fatality due to electric shock.
ƒ Do not give your car radio and especially the accessories to children. Never let your
children use electrical devices without supervision. Children are not always able to
recognize potential hazards. Also keep the packaging films away from children. There is
a danger of suffocation.
ƒ The car radio and the accompanying components may not be exposed to dripping or
sprayed water. Make sure that no containers filled with liquid, such as e.g. cups or
bottles, are placed in the vicinity of the device.
ƒ Make sure that the display is not exposed to any bumps. This could damage the display.
ƒ Please familiarize yourself with the different functions of your device before you begin
driving. Excessively high volumes can pose a risk for you and other people in traffic.
Therefore always select the volume at such a level that environmental sounds (horns,
sirens, etc.) can still be perceived.
ƒ Don’t use the car radio at an excessive volume. This poses a risk to your hearing.
ƒ Please only perform lengthy changes of the device settings while the vehicle is parked.
Your concentration might be affected by the changes.
ƒ Only install the device in such a manner that safe driving is assured.
ƒ Install the device in such a manner that it doesn't impede the driver and can't injure any
of the vehicle’s occupants in the event of emergency braking.
7
ƒ Don’t flip the monitor open by hand. This could damage the mechanics.
ƒ The TFT colour monitor consists of glass and liquid crystals. Don’t put any excessive
pressure on the monitor, since otherwise it might scratch, break, or sustain other
damages. In addition, the image quality might be impaired.
ƒ Don’t touch the monitor surface with hard objects and only clean it with a soft, dry cloth
and special TFT cleaner.
ƒ Don’t use the device for a longer period while the vehicle's engine isn't running. This
could drain the vehicle battery to the degree that the car can no longer be started. In
addition, this might reduce the lifespan of the battery.
ƒ Don’t park your vehicle in direct sunlight for extended periods, otherwise the temperature
in the car’s interior could rise to the point that the device overheats and causes
malfunctions. If possible, cool the interior of the vehicle in order to ensure that the device
will operate properly.
ƒ Only let the device be installed by qualified vehicle technicians.
ƒ Before the final installation of the device into a DIN insertion compartment in the
dashboard, connect the cables and test the connections.
ƒ Only use the accessories included in the delivery. Usage of unauthorized components
can cause damages.
ƒ If you need to drill holes or make other changes for the installation, consult a specialised
workshop in your area.
ƒ This device is designed for a vehicle power supply of 12 V with the ground on the car
body (negative pole). Check the battery voltage before installing it into a camping vehicle,
bus, or truck.
ƒ To avoid short circuits, the battery has to be disconnected before the installation.
ƒ Read the guidelines in this handbook for the connection of the power supply and other
options.
8
ƒ Secure the installed cables with insulating tape, cable ties, or cable clamps. To protect
the cables from damage, use insulating tape when guiding them past metal components.
ƒ Place and secure all cables in such a manner that they are not in the vicinity of movable
parts, such as e.g. the parking brake, gas/brake/coupling pedals, handle bars and seat
tracks.
ƒ Don’t place any cables in the vicinity of heat sources (e.g. near the heater ventilation),
since the insulation of the cables might get damaged and result in short circuits.
ƒ Don’t short circuit any cables. This can result in damages to the vehicle and device.
ƒ Never establish a power supply to other devices by removing the insulation of the
device’s power supply and connecting an additional cable. Otherwise, the maximum
power rating of the cable will be exceeded and there will be a danger of overheating.
ƒ If you have to replace the fuse, only use an identical one with the same rating.
ƒ The connected speakers have to be high-performance speakers with a minimum output
of 40 W and an impedance ranging from 4 to 8 ohm. If you connect speakers with other
output or impedance ratings, the speakers may burn, smoke, or sustain other kinds of
damage.
ƒ When the device is turned on, a control signal adjoins the blue cable of the connection
A5 (ISO plug A). You can connect this to the relay of the extendable vehicle antenna
(max. 500 mA, 12 V=). If your vehicle has a wire antenna inside the windshield, connect
the blue cable A5 (ISO plug A) to the pre-amplifier of the antenna.
ƒ If an external audio amplifier is connected to the device, the blue cable of connection A5
(ISO plug A) may not be connected to the power supply of the amplifier. Likewise, you
may not connect it to the power supply of an active car antenna. This poses a risk of
short circuits and malfunctions.
ƒ Insulate unused connection cables with insulating tape. The same applies to unused
speaker cables. Otherwise there is a risk of short circuits.
9
ƒ Dirt or condensed moisture on the lens of the CD/DVD drive may impede and even
prevent the playback of data carriers.
ƒ In general, the playback of self-burned data carriers is possible, but it depends on the
used software and the settings made with it, so that there may be problems during
playback in individual cases. You can receive further information from the manufacturer
of your software.
ƒ Additional CD data carriers can be played back just like audio CDs.
ƒ It’s possible that CD-R/CD-RW data carriers can’t be played back correctly if they were
recorded by a device other than an audio CD recorder.
ƒ In addition, it may be the case that a data carrier (CD-R/CD-RW) recorded with an audio
CD recorder can’t be played back due to the conditional features, irregular formats, or
soiling of the data carriers.
ƒ The information recorded on the data carrier (ID3TAG) is displayed by this device.
ƒ After inserting a CD-RW data carrier, it takes a little longer for the playback to begin than
with regular CD or CD-R data carriers. Also read the guidelines on the sleeves of the CD-
R/CD-RW data carriers before you insert them.

Caution:
The device is distinguished by a high degree of output. During operation, this results in a
strong heat generation. Therefore no cables or other parts may adjoin the device. If their
insulation melts, there is the risk of a short circuit or fire.
Note:
The connection 8.3 shown in illustr. 8.3 with the symbol
has to be connected to the parking
brake or other suitable components of the vehicle in such a way that the video playback of the
device is interrupted for the driver while the vehicle is in motion. Please consider that your
insurance coverage may be restricted or exempted otherwise. Please consult a specialist in
your area if you have any questions about the connections.
8.2 Connecting the antenna
The device is designed for antennas with an impedance of 75 Ω. To connect the antenna, plug
the antenna cable into the antenna socket of the device (socket
on the rear of the device).
