BEFORE USE
5 For safety....
· Do not raise the volume level too much, as this
will block outside sounds, making driving
dangerous.
· Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.
5 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.
Note:
For security reasons, a numbered ID card is provided with this unit, and the same ID number is
imprinted on the unit's chassis. Keep the card in a safe place, as it will help the authorities to
identify your unit if stolen.
