Dear
Customer:
Selecting
fine
audio
equipment
such
as
the
unit
you've
just
purchased
is
only
the
start
of
your
musical
enjoyment.
Now
it’s
time
to
consider
how
you
can
maximize
the
fun
and
excitement
your
equipment
offers,
This
manufacturer
and
the
Electronic
Industries
Association’s
Consumer
Electronics
Group
want
you
to
get
the
most
out
of
your
equipment
by
playing
it
at
a
safe
level.
One
that
lets
the
sound
come
through
loud
and
clear
without
annoying
blaring
or
distortion—and,
most
importantly,
without
affecting
your
sensitive
hear-
ing.
Sound
can
be
deceiving.
Over
time
your
hearing
“comfort
level”
adapts
to
higher
volumes
of
sound.
So
what
sounds
“normal”
can
actually
be
loud
and
harmful
to
your
hearing.
Guard
against
this
by
setting
your
equipment
at
a
safe
level
BEFORE
your
hearing
adapts.
To
establish
a
safe
level:
®
Start
your
volume
control
at
a
low
setting.
®
Slowly
increase
the
sound
until
you
can
hear
it
com-
fortably
and
clearly,
and
without
distortion,
Once
you
have
established
a
comfortable
sound
level:
®
Set
the
dial
and
leave
it
there.
Taking
a
minute
to
do
this
now
will
help
to
prevent
hearing
damage
or
loss
in
the
future.
After
all,
we
want
you
listening
for
a
lifetime.
We
Want
You
Listening
For
A
Lifetime
Used
wisely,
your
new
sound
equipment
will
pro-
vide
a
lifetime
of
fun
and
enjoyment.
Since
hearing
damage
from
loud
noise
is
often
undetectable
until
it
is
too
late,
this
manufacturer
and
the
Electronic
Industries

recom-
mend
you
avoid

excessive

[ Read this before connecting and installing the unit
Before you start
+ This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery
and negative grounding. Before installing it
in a recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check
the battery voltage.
+ Consult with your nearest dealer if installa-
tion requires the drilling of holes or other
modifications of the vehicle.
+ Connection of the ODR System requires
optional optical cables (e.g., CD-AD22) and
IP-BUS cables (e:g., CD-IP28). Consult your
nearest dealer for more detail.
+ Remove the negative (~) terminal of the bat-
tery to avoid the risk of short-circuit and dam-
age to the unit.
Connection/installation procedure
Use the following steps to connect and install the unit:
Remove the negative (-}) terminal of the battery.
2. Connect the cables temporarily.
(See pages 10 to 13.)
3. Set the setting switches of the audio units.
4, Connect the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
Press the Reset button.
(See page 7.)
6. Check for improper operations and noise.
Remove the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
8. Connect and install the unit.
(See pages 10 to 15.)
9. Connect the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
10. Check for proper operations.

When you have finished

fe
When you have finished connecting and installing a
complete system for the first time
Check that the system is working correctly, using the procedure under “When
you have finished” in the manual for the ODR System Control Center.
When you have finished adding this unit to upgrade the
system
Connecting the battery.
First, double-check that all connections are cor-
rect and that the unit is installed correctly.
Reassemble al] vehicle components which were
previously removed. Then connect the cable to
the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
Pressing the Reset button.
After changing the setting of setting switches of
audio units, press the Reset button by referring
to the procedure under “Reset Button” (page
7).
+ Press also the Reset button of all other audio
units.
3. Turn the vehicle ignition switch to

Testing the system.
Check that the unit and the whole system are
working correctly. If the unit does not work,

for incorrect connections.
+ Do not carry out checking procedures of the
system for a long period of time. Otherwise
the battery may be overloaded.

| Connecting the Cnits
AN CAUTION
To prevent short-circuit
+ Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhe-
sive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhe-
sive tape around them where they lie against
metal parts.
+ Do not route wires where they will get hot,
for example, where the heater will blow over
them. If the insulation heats up, it may
become damaged, resulting in a short-circuit
through the vehicle body.
Do not drill a hole-into the engine compart-
ment and directly connect the orange leads
to the battery. Vibration may eventually
wear through the insulation, resulting ina
short-circuit through the vehicle body.
Make sure that wires will not foul moving
parts of the vehicle, such as the gearshift,
handbrake or seat sliding mechanism.
AN CAUTION
To avoid accidents
* Do not shorten any leads. Otherwise the pro-
tection circuit may fail to work when it
should.
+ Never feed power to other equipment by cut-
ting the insulation of the power supply lead
to tap from the lead. The current capacity of
the lead will be exceeded, causing overheat-
ing.
@ To prevent damage
+ Do not use the Digital Fiber Optic Cable CD-
D60 and CD-D15 when using more than four
optical cables in the entire ODR System.
Otherwise no sound may be output.
« When disconnecting a connector, pull the
connector itself. Do not pull the lead itself, as
it may come away from the connector.
+ Do not ground the speaker lead directly to
the vehicle body. Do not connect multiple
negative (-) speaker leads to a single termi-
nal.
+ The center speaker connected to the equaliz-
er must be high-power types possessing
minimum rating of 30 W and impedance of 4
to 8 Q. Connecting speakers with output and
/or impedance values other than those noted
here can damage the speakers.
es To prevent noise
> Install and route the orange leads supplied with the
equalizer as faraway as possible from the IP-BUS.
and speaker leads. Install and route the orange
leads, IP-BUS and speaker leads, and the equalizer
as faraway as possible from the antenna, antenna
cable and tuner.

Connection of the IP-BUS and optical digi-
tal line

portions to be connected of the IP-BUS connector
are colored.)
