To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.Be sure to install this unit in the dashboard of the car for safety. For installation and connections, see the supplied installation/connections manual.This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.FOR UNITED STATES CUSTOMERS. NOT APPLICABLE IN CANADA, INCLUDING IN THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC.POUR LES CONSOMMATEURS AUX ÉTATS-UNIS. NON APPLICABLE AU CANADA, Y COMPRIS LA PROVINCE DE QUÉBEC.You are cautioned that any changes ormodifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20 cm or more away from person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).CAUTIONThe use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.000COV.book Page 2 Friday, June 15, 2012 1:02 PM$

Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a range of about 10 m (about 33 feet). Connecting two devices is common, but some devices can be connected to multiple devices at the same time.• You do not need to use a cable for connection since Bluetooth technology is a wireless technology, neither is it necessary for the devices to face one another, such is the case with infrared technology. For example, you can use such a device in a bag or pocket.• Bluetooth technology is an international standard supported by millions of companies all over the world, and employed by various companies worldwide.On Bluetooth communication• Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a range of about 10 m. Maximum communication range may vary depending on obstacles (person, metal, wall, etc.) or electromagnetic environment.• The following conditions may affect the sensitivity of Bluetooth communication.– There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or wall between this unit and Bluetooth device.– A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a wireless LAN device, cordless telephone, or microwave oven, is in use near this unit.• Because Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) use the same frequency, microwave interference may occur and result in communication speed deterioration, noise, or invalid connection if this unit is used near a wireless LAN device. In such as case, perform the following.– Use this unit at least 10 m away from the wireless LAN device.– If this unit is used within 10 m of a wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless LAN device.– Install this unit and Bluetooth device as near to each other as possible.• Microwaves emitting from a Bluetooth device may affect the operation of electronic medical devices. Turn off this unit and other Bluetooth devices in the following locations, as it may cause an accident.– where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital, train, airplane, or petrol station– near automatic doors or a fire alarm• You can connect to the following iPod models. Update your iPod devices to the latest software before use.Made for– iPod touch (4th generation)– iPod touch (3rd generation)– iPod touch (2nd generation)– iPod classic– iPod nano (6th generation)– iPod nano (5th generation)– iPod nano (4th generation)– iPod nano (3rd generation)– iPod nano (2nd generation)– iPod nano (1st generation)*– iPhone 4S– iPhone 4– iPhone 3GS– iPhone 3G• “Made for iPod” and “Made for iPhone” mean that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specically to iPod or iPhone respectively and has been certied by the developer to meet Apple performance standards. Apple is not responsible for the operation of this device or its compliance with safety and regulatory standards.

Replace the battery with a new CR2025 lithium battery. Use of any other battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.Notes on the lithium battery• Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.• Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good contact.• Be sure to observe the correct polarity when installing the battery.• Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers, otherwise a short-circuit may occur.Cleaning the connectorsThe unit may not function properly if the connectors between the unit and the front panel are not clean. In order to prevent this, detach the front panel (page 7) and clean the connectors with a cotton swab. Do not apply too much force.
