Unit is designed for negative ground
12 V DC systems only
The unit cannot be used in trucks or other cars
with 24 V systems. Otherwise, there is a risk of fire
and damage.
Do not disassemble or remodel the
unit
This can cause electric shock, personal injury or
fire. Do not connect any other system’s power
supply cord to this unit’s power supply cord
directly. If you are in any doubt about the safe
installation of this unit, please consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
Do not install in locations which
interfere with airbag operation
Otherwise there is a risk of accidents and injury.
Use only the specified fuse
When replacing the fuse, be sure to use only a fuse
of the same rating (ampere rating). Otherwise
there is a risk of fire.
Do not block ventilation
If the unit is placed under the floor carpet, floor
mat, or otherwise covered, the ventilation
openings and heat sink cannot provide sufficient
cooling, leading to overheating and the risk of fire
or serious accidents.
Cautions
•Do not get the wires under a screw, or caught in
moving parts (e.g. seat railing).
•Before making connections, turn the car ignition
off to avoid short circuits.
•Connect the yellow and red power input leads
only after all other leads have been connected.
•Run all ground wires to a common ground
point.
•Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected wires
with electrical tape for safety.
Notes on the power supply cord (yellow)
•When connecting this unit in combination with
other stereo components, the connected car
circuit’s rating must be higher than the sum of
each component’s fuse.
•When no car circuits are rated high enough,
connect the unit directly to the battery.
Precautions On safety
Comply with the Traffic Laws in your country.

1Installing the Main Unit
Before installation
This unit is designed to be completely safe, but if not installed
correctly, it can cause accidents. Be sure to verify the following
points before installation.
Install the main unit to the in-dash location, and the connection
box under the navigator’s seat, etc.
• If the monitor in the opened position is close to a air-
conditioning outlet, the outlet should be closed.
•Install the unit so that the monitor when opened up will not
block access to the hazard switch or other important controls.
• Do not install the unit (monitor) in locations which may be
subject to excessively low or high temperatures. (Otherwise the
unit may be deformed and the LCD may be damaged.)
Exposure to direct sunlight can also lead to high temperatures
and should be avoided.
Selecting the installation location
1Set the ignition key to OFF or remove it.
2Place the units in their intended mounting
locations to check the cable length and monitor
installation conditions.
Frequency select switch
The AM (FM) tuning interval is factory-set to the 9 k (50 k)
position. If the frequency allocation system of your country is
based on 10 kHz (200 kHz) interval, set the switch on the bottom
of the unit to the 10 k (200 k) position before making connections.
