Warning:
Stop the car before operating the unit.
Caution:
Adjust the volume so that you can hear sounds
outside the car. Driving with the volume too high
may cause an accident.
Avoid using the USB device if it might hinder
driving safety.
Caution on volume setting:
Digital devices (CD/USB) produce very little noise
compared with other sources. Lower the volume
before playing these digital sources to avoid
damaging the speakers by the sudden increase of
the output level.
Temperature inside the car:
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot
or cold weather, wait until the temperature in the
car becomes normal before operating the unit.
Condensation:
When the car is air-conditioned, moisture may
collect on the laser lens. This may cause disc read
errors. In this case, remove the disc and wait for
the moisture to evaporate.

Advertencia:
Detenga el automóvil antes de operar la unidad.
Precaución:
Ajuste el volumen a un nivel que permita
escuchar el ruido del tráfico y otros sonidos
ambientales. La conducción con el volumen
demasiado alto puede causar un accidente.
Evite usar el dispositivo USB si puede amenazar la
seguridad de la conducción.
Precaución sobre el ajuste de volumen:
Los dispositivos digitales (CD/USB) producen muy
poco ruido al compararse con otras fuentes. Baje el
volumen antes de reproducir estas fuentes digitales
para evitar daños en los altavoces resultantes de un
repentino aumento del nivel de salida.
Temperatura dentro del automóvil:
Si ha dejado el automóvil estacionado durante largo
tiempo en un sitio cálido o frío, no opere la unidad
hasta que se normalice la temperatura del habitáculo.
Condensación:
Cuando se está usando el aire acondicionado, se
puede condensar humedad en la lente láser. Esto
puede ocasionar errores de lectura del disco. En
este caso, extraiga el disco y espere hasta que se
evapore la humedad.
