Installation/Connection Manual
This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground electrical systems. If your vehicle does not have this system, a
voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at JVC car audio dealers.
WARNINGS
DO NOT install any unit or wire any cable in a location where;
it may obstruct the steering wheel and gearshift lever operations, as this may result in a traffic accident.
it may obstruct the operation of safety devices such as air bags, as this may result in a fatal accident.
it may obstruct visibility.
DO NOT operate any unit while manipulating the steering wheel, as this may result in a traffic accident.
The driver must not watch the monitor while driving. It may lead to carelessness and cause an accident.
The driver must not put on the headphones while driving. It is dangerous to shut off the outside sounds while driving.
If you need to operate the unit while driving, be sure to look around carefully.
If the parking brake is not engaged, “Parking Brake” appears on the monitor, and no playback picture will be shown.
This warning appears only when the parking brake lead is connected to the parking brake system built in the car.
Notes on electrical connections:
Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.
It is recommended to connect speakers with a maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the rear and at the front, with an
impedance of 4  to 8 Ω).
If the maximum power is less than 50 W, change <Amplifier Gain> setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page
24 of the INSTRUCTIONS).
To prevent short circuits, cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape.
The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.
The heat sink becomes very hot. Do not place any cable where it may touch the heat sink.
