To avoid the risk of injury or accident, read
the following precautions before installing
and operating the unit.
On safety
Comply with your local traffic rules and
regulations.
• While driving
– You must not watch or operate the
monitor. It may lead to distraction and
cause an accident.
Park your car in a safe place to watch the
monitor and operate the unit.
• While operating
– Do not insert your hands, fingers or
foreign object into the unit while the
monitor is functioning. It may cause
injury or damage to the unit.
– Keep small articles out of the reach of
children.
• Do not touch the TV antenna and monitor
at the same time during storms. You may
get an electric shock.
• If your car was parked in direct sunlight
resulting in a considerable rise in
temperature inside the car, allow the unit to
cool off before operating it.
Preventing accidents
The TV/video pictures appear only after
you park the car and set the parking brake.
When the car starts moving, the TV/video
pictures automatically disappear for safety
reasons, after displaying the following
caution.
Picture off for your safety!
Do not operate equipment connected to
the TV tuner unit or watch the monitor
while driving. You may cause a traffic
accident if your attention is distracted by
the monitor.
• Do not use the Set Up feature while
driving, or perform any other function
which could divert your attention from the
road.
• When you connect the back camera:
– When you drive, watch the surroundings
carefully for your safety. Do not depend
on the back camera exclusively.
• When backing up you car, be sure to look
back for your safety.
On installation
• We recommend this unit should be
installed by a qualified technician or service
personnel
– If you try to install this unit by yourself,
refer to the supplied “Installation/
Connections” manual and read it
carefully. Make sure to install this unit
properly.
– Improper installation may cause battery
drain or a short circuit.
• If the unit does not work properly, check
the connections first (refer to the supplied
“Installation/Connections” manual). If
everything in order, check the fuse.
• Replacing the fuse
– When replacing the fuse, be sure to use
only a fuse of the same rating (ampere
rating).
– Using a different fuse or bridging the
contacts with wire is highly dangerous
and can lead to serious damage.
• Protect unit surface from damage
– Do not expose the unit surface to
chemicals such as insecticide, hair spray,
insect repellent, etc.

in contact with the unit for a long time.
Otherwise the finish of the unit may be
impaired, or deformation may occur.
• When installing, be sure to turn the ignition
key to the off position. Installing the unit
while the ignition is on may cause battery
drain or short circuit.
• When installing, be sure not to damage any
car parts such as pipes, tubes, fuel tank or
