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 your local traffic rules and

regulations.
