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.  
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.

Notes on CD/CD Media  
Notes on CD-Rs/RWs  
If you use commercial CDs, they must  
have the label shown at right.  
Some copy-protected music CDs are not  
playable.  
¡ 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 them and  
make playback impossible.  
¡ 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.  
¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain  
other than CD-DA data.  
How to hold a disc  
¡ Do not touch the underside of a disc.  
¡ Do not scratch on a disc.  
¡ 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  
¡ Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc  
for handling it.  
Disc cleaning  
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe from the center outward.  
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.
