• Meaning of displays
Warning
This label is intended to alert the 
user to the presence of important 
operating instructions.
Failure to heed the instructions 
will result in severe injury or 
death.
Caution
This label is intended to alert the 
user to the presence of important 
operating instructions.
Failure to heed the instructions 
can result in injury or material 
damage.
Warning
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.
Doing so may result in an accident, fi re or electric 
shock.
USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE
GROUND.
(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure 
to do so may result in fi re, etc.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to 
other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current 
carrying capacity of the wire and result in fi re or 
electric shock.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT
HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE
STEERING WHEEL OR GEARSHIFT.
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper 
movement etc. and result in serious accident.
DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME
ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the 
manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables 
or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as 
the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can 
be extremely hazardous.
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in 
fi re or product damage.
Caution
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND
INSTALL THEM SECURELY.
Be sure to use only the specifi ed accessory parts. 
Use of other than designated parts may damage 
this unit internally or may not securely install the 
unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose 
resulting in hazards or product failure.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH
MOISTURE OR DUST.
Avoid installing the unit in locations with high 
incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that 
penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.
HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE
BY EXPERTS.
The wiring and installation of this unit requires 
special technical skill and experience. To ensure 
safety, always contact the dealer where you 
purchased this product to have the work done.
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED
OR PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.
Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts 
(like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This 
will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If 
wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber 
grommet to prevent the wire’s insulation from being 
cut by the metal edge of the hole.
