[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 and wire any cable in locations 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. 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

a traffic accident.

• If the parking brake is not engaged, “Parking Brake” flashes on the monitor, and no playback picture

will be shown.

– This warning appears only when the parking brake wire 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 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).

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.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

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.

Before connecting: Check the wiring in the vehicle carefully. Incorrect connection may cause serious damage to this unit.

The leads of the power cord and those of the connector from the car body may be different in color.

1 Connect the colored leads of the power cord in the order specified in the illustration below.

2 Connect the aerial cord and TV aerials. (For installing and attaching the TV aerials, see diagram Å on page 3.)

3 Finally connect the wiring harness to the 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.

• Aerial cords are

identical both for

the left and right TV

aerials.

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.

1 Attach the aerials on the front windshield.

• Rub on the aerials with the rubber spatula (supplied) to firmly

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.

CENTER OUT

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.

*4 Firmly attach the ground wire to the metallic body or to the chassis of the car—to the place uncoated with paint (if coated with paint, remove the paint before attaching the wire). Failure to do so may cause

damage to the unit.
