Safety Information
Thank you for purchasing this product, please 
read the manual carefully before operating, 
and reserve it for future reference.
PRECAUTIONS
•   Only in a 24-volt DC negative-ground 
electrical system. 
•    Disconnect the vehicle's negative battery 
terminal while mounting and connecting 
the unit.
•   When replacing the fuse, be sure to use 
one with an identical amperage rating.   
  Using a fuse with a higher amperage 
rating may cause serious damage to the 
unit.
•   Make sure that pins or other foreign 
objects do not get inside the unit, they 
may cause malfunctions, or create safety 
hazards such as electrical shock.
•   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.
•   Keep the volume at a level at which you 
can hear outside warning sounds  (horns 
sirens, etc.).
CAUTION
•  DO NOT open covers and do not 
repair  by yourself. Ask the dealer or an 
experienced technician for help.
BEFORE OPERATION
•  Do not raise the volume level too much, 
as this will block outside sounds, making 
driving dangerous. 
•  Stop the car before performing any 
complicated operation.
