• 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. If the driver watches 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 or you may be involved in

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 to the 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).
Heat sink
If the maximum power is less than 50 W, change “Amplifier
Gain” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 60 of the INSTRUCTIONS).
• To prevent short-circuit, 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.

Installing the TV aerials
Before installing:

• Attach the aerials only to the inside of the front window glass
(so as not to obstruct your visibility through the window).
• Do not rub the aerials or the aerials’ cords with alcohol,
benzine, thinner, gasoline or other volatile substances.
• Be sure to wipe the window surface where the aerials will be
attached with the cleaner (supplied) to remove moisture, dirt,
dust, wax, oil or other substances.
• The windows with windshield heating, wave insulated, or
thermally insulated screen will interfere with signal reception.
Consult your JVC car audio dealer.
• For connecting the TV aerials to the unit, see page 2.

Attaching the TV aerials
Before attaching:

• Identify the exact attachment location and confirm that the
aerials will not interfere with other aerial receptions (at least
10 cm away from the other aerials). Once you attach the aerials,
you can hardly remove them.

fix them on the glass.
2 Attach the aerial cords to the electrodes of the aerials.
3 Wire the cords along the pillars, and secure them using the cord
clamps.
• Remove the pillar covers, and wire the cords so that the earth
section of the cord can touch the metallic part of the car.
4 After wiring is done, attach the pillar covers.

B Connecting the external amplifiers
You can connect amplifiers to upgrade surround system in the car compartment.
• Connect the amplifiers to 5.1-ch analog discrete output plugs to enjoy multi-channel source.
• After you have connected the center speaker, make sure to activate the center speaker; otherwise, no sound comes out of the connected center speaker, see page 57 of the INSTRUCTIONS.
• You can supply the power to the amplifiers by connecting the remote leads (blue with white stripe) of this unit and amplifiers. (To connect more than one amplifier using the remote leads, Y-connectors need to
be separately purchased.)
• Disconnect the speakers from the unit, and connect them to the amplifier. Leave the speaker leads of the unit unused.
