Before Using

Introduction

Important precautions for mobile radio operation

 The use of protective tape or covering is recommended to protect the wiring and the 

power cord inside the vehicle.

 When installing the unit inside a vehicle, locate the radio, antenna, co-axial cable, etc. 

at least 20 cm away from the following control equipment.

●  Engine-related: 

Fuel injection equipment and engine control

●  Transmission-related: Transmission and 4WD electronic control unit

●  Others: 

ECS/EPS/ABS/ETACS/Fully automatic air-conditioner/

Auto-heater control unit/G sensor

 Install the antenna and co-axial cable away from the control unit and wiring harness. 

Place all cables so they do not entangle and impede the driver or passengers. Never 
place any equipment in a location where it may pose a danger to the passengers, 
where it may interfere with driving, or obstruct the driver field of view.

 Do not install any apparatus in such a way that it may interfere with the proper operation 

of the air bags.

 After installing the radio, check that the brake lamp, head lamp, turning indicator lights, 

wiper, etc. are working normally with the radio power switched on.

 Keep full attention on driving, do not operate the radio controls or look at the radio 

display while driving. Stop the vehicle at a safe location, before operating the radio 
controls or looking at the display.

 Do not drive the car in such a way that external sounds required for safe driving cannot 

be heard. Most areas and districts prohibit the use of earphones and headphones 
while driving.

 When using the radio transmitter, if it appears to have abnormal effects on the control 

equipment of the vehicle, stop the engine, turn off the power supply, and disconnect 
the power cord. Resolve the problem before continuing to operate the radio equipment.

 When using the radio in an electric or hybrid car, the receiver may experience high RF 

interference and noise from the inverters that are built into the electric vehicle.
