CAUTION
! Never install this product in places where,
or in a manner that:
— It could injure the driver or passengers
if the vehicle stops suddenly.
— It may interfere with the driver’s opera-
tion of the vehicle, such as on the floor
in front of the driver
’s seat, or close to
the steering wheel or gearstick.
! Make sure there is nothing behind the
dashboard or panelling when drilling
holes in them. Be careful not to damage
fuel lines, brake lines, electronic compo-
nents, communication wires or power
cables.
! When using screws, do not allow them to
come into contact with any electrical lead.
Vibration may damage wires or insulation,
leading to a short circuit or other damage
to the vehicle.
! To ensure proper installation, use the sup-
plied parts in the manner specified. If any
parts other than the supplied ones are
used, they may damage internal parts of
this product or they may work loose and
the product may become detached.
! It is extremely dangerous to allow the
cables to become wound around the steer-
ing column or gearstick. Be sure to install
this product, its cables, and wiring away
in such a way that they will not obstruct
or hinder driving.
! Make sure that leads cannot get caught in
a door or the sliding mechanism of a seat,
resulting in a short circuit.
! Please confirm the proper function of
your vehicle
’s other equipment following
installation of the navigation system.

restrict the placement and use of this sys-
tem in your vehicle. Please comply with
all applicable laws and regulations re-
garding the use, installation and operation
of your navigation system.

away unit where it may (i) obstruct the
driver
’s vision, (ii) impair the performance
of any of the vehicle
’s operating systems
or safety features, including airbags, ha-
zard lamp buttons or (iii) impair the dri-
ver
’s ability to safely operate the vehicle.
! Install the display unit between the dri-
ver
’s seat and front passenger seat so that
it will not be hit by the driver or passenger
if the vehicle stops quickly.
! Never install the display unit in front of or
next to the place in the dash, door, or pil-
lar from which one of your vehicle

To guard against
electromagnetic interference
In order to prevent interference, set the follow-
ing items as far as possible from this naviga-
tion system, other cables or leads:
! TV aerial and aerial lead
! FM, MW/LW aerial and its lead
! GPS aerial and its lead
In addition you should lay or route each aerial
lead as far as possible from other aerial leads.
Do not bind them together, lay or route them
together, or cross them. Such electromagnetic
noise will increase the potential for errors in
the location display.
Before installing
! Consult with your nearest dealer if installa-
tion requires the drilling of holes or other
modifications of the vehicle.
