[A]
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.
• If you need to operate the unit while driving, be sure to look around carefully or you may be
involved in a traffic accident.
• 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.
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and
make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.
• Be sure any cable is not caught on the car’s chassis or under seats.
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 maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the
rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω).
If the maximum power is less than 50 W, change  setting to prevent the
speakers from being damaged (see page 42 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.
• At the time of installation, be sure to fix all wires (wires both from this unit and from the car
itself) in a way that any wires cannot come into contact with heat sinks on the rear and side of
the unit.

INSTALLATION (IN-DASH MOUNTING)
The following illustration shows a typical installation. However, you should make adjustments corresponding to
your specific car. If you have any questions or require information regarding installation kits, consult your JVC
car audio dealer or a company supplying kits.
• If you are not sure how to install this unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.

Before installing the unit
• When mounting the unit, be sure to use the screws provided, as instructed. If other screws are used, parts could
become loose or damaged.
• When tightening screws or bolts, be careful not to pinch any connection cord.
• Make sure not to block the fan on the rear to maintain proper ventilation when installing the unit.

TROUBLESHOOTING
• The fuse blows.
* Are the red and black leads connected
correctly?
• Power cannot be turned on.
* Is the yellow lead connected?
• No sound from the speakers.

longer screws are used, they could
damage the unit.
• Tighten the screws firmly to prevent
the unit from falling off.

• Noise interfere with sounds.
* Is the rear ground terminal connected to
the car’s chassis using shorter and thicker
cords?
• This unit becomes hot.
* Is the speaker output lead grounded?
* Are the “–” terminals of L and R speakers
grounded in common?
