 xing the product or its accessories.
 Installing the product on the air bag cover or in a 
location where it interferes with airbag operation is 
prohibited.
 Check for piping, gasoline tank, electric wiring, and 
other items before installing the product.

conditions while driving.
 This unit is designed for use exclusively in automobiles.
 Do not operate the unit for a prolonged period with the 
engine turned off.
Operating the audio system for a long period of time with the

 Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or excessive 
heat.
Otherwise these will raise the interior temperature of the unit, and 
it may lead to smoke,  re, or other damage to the unit.
 Do not use the product where it is exposed to water, 
moisture, or dust.
Exposure of the unit to water, moisture, or dust may lead to

the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy days. 
 Set the volume level to low enough before the AUX 
connection is completed.
Failure to observe this, the loud noise may come out and damage 
your speakers and your hearing. Direct connection of the speaker/
headphone output of an external device without any attenuator 
may distort sound or damage the connected external device.
Observe the following cautions when installing.
 Refer wiring and installation to qualifi ed service 
personnel.
Installation of this unit requires special skills and experience. For 
maximum safety, have it installed by your dealer. Panasonic is not 
liable for any problems resulting from your own installation of the

parts such as seat rails. Do not scratch, pull, bend or twist the 
leads. Do not run them near heat sources or place heavy objects 
on them. If leads must be run over sharp metal edges, protect the 
leads by winding them with vinyl tape or similar protection.
 Use the designated parts and tools for installation.

							Notes on Discs
 You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs 
recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either 
due to their recording characteristics or dirt,  ngerprints, 
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
 CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and 
high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside 
a car for extended periods may damage and make playback 
impossible.
 Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due to 
incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder (CD-
R/RW drive) and the discs.
 This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is 
not closed.
 This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain 
other than CD-DA or MP3/WMA data (Video CD, etc.).
 Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc for 
handling it.
Recording MP3/WMA fi les on a CD-media
You are recommended to minimize the chances of making 
a disc that contains both CD-DA fi les and MP3/WMA fi les.
If CD-DA fi les are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA fi les, 
the songs may not play in the intended order, or some 
songs may not play at all.
When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc, 
use different folders for each data.
 Do not record  les other than MP3/WMA  les and 
unnecessary folder on a disc.
 The name of MP3/WMA  le should be added by rules as 
shown in the following descriptions and also comply with 
the rules of each  le system. You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA  les or 
displaying the information of MP3/WMA  les recorded with 
certain writing software or CD recorders.
 The  le extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to 
each  le depending on the  le format.
 This unit does not have the play list function.
 Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of 
Disc-at-Once is recommended.

encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user 
manual of your own encoding software and writing 
software.
