the wrong rating may cause your unit to  
malfunction. on hot places such as above the  
dashboard.  
• To prevent a short circuit when replacing a  
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.  
Cleaning the Unit  
If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the  
power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon  
cloth or soft cloth.  
2WARNING  
Take the following precautions to prevent  
fire and avoid personal injury:  
•When extending the ignition wire, battery  
wire, or ground wire, use 0.75mm2 (AWG18)  
or larger automotive grade wire to avoid wire  
deterioration or damage to the covering.  
• Check that no metal objects (coins, tools,  
etc.) are left inside the unit to avoid short  
circuits.  
2CAUTION  
Do not use hard cloths or paint thinner,  
alcohol, or other volatile solvents. These may  
damage external surfaces or remove  
indicator characters.

contacts your body or clothing, wash it off  
with soap immediately.  
In cold climates, there may be a period after  
you turn on your vehicle’s heater when the  
lens that guides the laser beam used in your  
CD player fogs up. If this happens, you

Safety Precautions  
2CAUTION  
Do not set the remote on hot places such  
as above the dashboard.  
Loading and Replacing the Batteries:  
Use two "AAA" batteries.  
Slide the cover while pressing  
downwards to remove it as illustrated.  
Insert the batteries with the + and –  
poles aligned properly, following the  
illustration inside the case.  
2WARNING  
Store unused batteries out of the reach

if the battery is accidentally swallowed.  
NOTE  
• The provided batteries are intended for  
use in operation checking, and their  
service life may be short.  
• When the remote controllable distance  
becomes short, replace both of the  
batteries with new ones.  
NOTE  
A portion of the operations may not be  
possible, depending on the unit that is

Handling Compact Discs  
• 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.  
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.  
Do Not Load CD Accessories  
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.  
Cleaning CDs  
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.  
2CAUTION  
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.  
Handling CDs  
• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD (the  
side opposite the label) when holding it.  
Checking New CDs for Burrs  
• The reflective film on a CD-R or a CD-RW is more  
fragile than that on an ordinary music CD, and may  
peel off if scratched. Fingerprints on a CD-R or CD-  
RW are also more likely to cause skipping when  
the disc is played. For these reasons, handle the  
disc very carefully. Detailed handling instructions  
will appear on the CD-R or CD-RW package: read  
this information carefully before using the disc.  
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.  
• This unit can only play the CDs with  
.
It may not correctly play disks which do not have  
the mark.  
• CD-Rs and CD-RWs which have not undergone  
finalization processing cannot be played. (For  
more information on finalization processing, refer  
to the manual for your CD-R/CD-RW writing  
software or CD-R/CD-RW recorder.) Additionally,  
depending on the recording status, it may prove  
impossible to play certain CDs recorded on CD-R  
or CD-RW.  
• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.

Burrs  
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the  
Labeled Side  
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.  
Storing CDs  
• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct  
sunlight (such as a car seat or the dashboard) or  
other hot places.  
• A CD-R or CD-RW is more susceptible than a  
music CD to damage from high temperatures and  
humidity, and in some cases, may become  
unusable if left in the car for long periods of time.

2CAUTION  
• 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.  
2CAUTION  
• 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.  
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.
