washes or on rainy days.Observe the following cautions when installing.  If your car is equipped with air bag and/or anti-theft 
systems specifi c procedures may be required for 
connection and disconnection of the battery to install 
this product. 
 FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE MAY RESULT 
IN THE UNINTENDED DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAGS 
OR ACTIVATION OF THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM 
RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND 
PERSONAL INJURY. 
 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

 Take care not to damage the leads.  
  When wiring, take care not to damage the leads. 
Prevent them from getting caught in the vehicle 
chassis, screws, and moving 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. 
Caution
 Use the designated parts and tools for installation.  
  Use the supplied or designated parts and appropriate 
tools to install the product. The use of parts other than 
those supplied or designated may result in internal 
damage to the unit. Faulty installation may lead to an

harness, or other component.
 Note that if your car has a driving computer or a 
navigation computer, disconnecting the cable from the 
battery may clear the memory. 
 Fit a vinyl cap over unused connection terminals, to 
prevent contact with metal parts etc.
Caution
Observe the following cautions when handling the 
batteries for the remote control unit. Proper Use of the Batteries 
 Use only specifi ed battery (CR2025).
 Match the polarity of the battery with the () and () 
marks in the battery case. 
 Replace a dead battery as soon as possible. 
 Remove the battery from the remote control unit when 
not using it for an extended period of time. 
 Insulate the battery (by placing them in a plastic bag 
or covering them with vinyl tape) before disposal or 
storage. 
 Do not disassemble, recharge, heat or short the battery. 
Do not throw a battery into a fi re or water. 
 Follow local regulations when disposing of a battery. 
 Improper use of a battery may cause overheating, an 
explosion or ignition, resulting in injury or a fi re. 
In case of battery leakage
 Thoroughly wipe the battery liquid off the battery case 
and insert new battery. 
 If any part of your body or clothing comes into contact 
with battery liquid, wash it with plenty of water. 
 If battery liquid comes into contact with your eyes, 
wash them with plenty of water and get immediate 
medical attention. 
Observe the following cautions when mounting the 
TV antennas.  Attach the TV antenna so that it does not protrude. 
If the antenna element extends beyond the front and 
rear of the vehicle or car, it could hit eyes or heads of 
pedestrians and potentially cause an accident or an 
injury.
 Place the TV antenna so that it does not impede driving 
or visibility. If the antenna is in a position that impairs 
forward or backward visibility, it could interfere with 
driving and cause an accident.
 Do not disassemble or modify the TV antenna. Such 
modifi cation could start smoke or fi re. 
 Fasten the TV antenna securely, so that it cannot drop 
off. If the screws are loose or the bond at the mounting 
is weak, the antenna could fall off, potentially causing 
damage to the car bodywork, accident or injury. Inspect 
it occasionally. 
 Be sure to install the TV antenna on the inner side of 
the rear window.
 Be sure to connect the power lead of the TV antenna to 
ACC power DC 12 V.
 Keep the antenna away from the external amplifi er and 
the rear speaker cord as much as possible.
 Be sure to connect the grounding plate into the TV 
antenna body. Otherwise, desensitization will occur.  
 Avoid contacting the back of the TV antenna body on 
the adhesive surface.  
 Do not re-adhere the back of the TV antenna body to 
avoid weakening adherability. 
 Avoid adhering the TV antenna on the heating wire as 
much as possible.
