CY17030
To use the adapter, open the cover.
The A/V input adapter is composed of 3
input adapters.
Yellow: Image input adapter
Red: Audio input adapter
White: Audio input adapter
NOTICE
Close the cover when the A/V input
adapter is not in use. Inserting a for-
eign object other than the appropriate
plug may cause electrical failure or
short circuit.
CY17073
After plugging the cord into the adapter,
let it go through the gap between the
console box and the tray. Use a cord
which is thin enough to go through the
gap. Close the console box lid.
CY19137
This power outlet is designed for use as
a power supply for the audio device con-
nected to the A/V input adapter.
The engine switch must be in the ON"
position for the power outlet to be used.
The maximum capacity for this power out-
let is 115 VAC/100W. If you attempt to
use an appliance that requires more than
115 VAC or 100W, the protection circuit
will activate and cut the power supply.
The power supply will restart automatically
when you use an appliance that operates
within the 115 VAC/100W limits.

CY19135
To use the power outlet, push the main
switch on the instrument panel.
An indicator light will illuminate to indicate
that the power outlet is ready for use.
Push the main switch once again to turn
the power outlet off. When the power out-
let is not in use, make sure that the main
switch is turned off.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not use the power
outlet longer than necessary when
the engine is not running.
 Close the power outlet lid when the
power outlet is not in use. Inserting
a foreign object other than the ap-
propriate plug that fits the outlet
may cause electrical failure or short
circuit.
The power outlet is not designed for
the following electric appliances even if
their power consumption is under 115
VAC/100W. These appliances may not
operate properly.
Appliances with high initial peak watt-
age: cathode−ray tube type televisions,
compressor−driven refrigerators, electric
pumps, electric tools, etc.
Measuring devices which process pre-
cise data: medical equipment, measur-
ing instruments, etc.
Other appliances requiring an extremely
stable power supply: microcomputer−
controlled electric blankets, touch sen-
sor lamps, etc.
Certain electrical appliances may cause
radio noise.

NOTICE
To ensure correct audio/video system
operation:
Be careful not to spill beverages
over the system.
 Do not put anything other than a
compact disc into the slot.
 Do not put anything other than a
DVD video, video CD, dts−CD or au-
dio CD into the DVD player.
 The use of a cellular phone inside
or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the sys-
tem which you are listening to.
However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
your radioit is just the normal result of
conditions outside the vehicle. For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can interfere with
AM signals. And of course, radio signals
have a limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal will
be. In addition, reception conditions
change constantly as your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a prob-
lem with your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stationsGenerally, the
effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
Multi−pathFM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this
happens, the signals will cancel each oth-
er out, causing a momentary flutter or
loss of reception.Static and flutteringThese occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swappingIf the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weak-
ened, and there is another strong station
nearby on the FM band, your radio may
tune in the second station until the origi-
nal signal can be picked up again.
AM
FadingAM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphereespecially at night.
These reflected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio sta-
tion, causing the radio station to sound
alternately strong and weak.
Station interferenceWhen a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a
radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
StaticAM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.

Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may in-
validate the user ’s right to operate the

NOTICE
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 lim-
its are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interfer-
ence 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 commu-
nications. However, there is no guar-
antee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television re-
ception, 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 out-
let on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experi-
enced radio/TV technician for help.CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC
PLAYER, DVD PLAYER AND DISCS
Extremely high temperatures can keep
your compact disc player and DVD
player from working. On hot days, use
the air conditioning to cool the vehicle
interior before you use the players.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your compact disc player and
DVD player skip.
If moisture gets into your compact disc
player and DVD player, the players
may not play even though they appear
to be working. Remove the disc from
the player and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
Compact disc players and DVD play-
ers use an invisible laser beam which
could cause hazardous radiation ex-
posure if directed outside the unit. Be
sure to operate the players correctly.

NOTICE
Do not use special shaped, trans-
parent/translucent, low quality or la-
beled discs such as those shown in
the illustrations. The use of such
discs may damage the player or
changer, or it may be impossible to
eject the disc.
 This system is not designed for use
of Dual Disc. Do not use Dual Disc
because it may cause damage to
the player or changer.

CorrectWrong
Handle the discs carefully, especially
when you are inserting them. Hold
them on the edge and do not bend
them. Avoid getting fingerprints on
them, particularly on the shiny side.
Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of
a chapter or track. (To see a pin hole,
hold the disc up to the light.)
Remove discs from the compact disc
player when you are not playing them.
Store them in their plastic cases away
from moisture, heat, and direct sun-
light.
Z17053
To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint−
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the
center to the edge of the disc (not in
circles). Dry it with another soft, lint−free
cloth. Do not use a conventional record
cleaner or anti−static device. MP3/WMA FILES
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio com-
pression standards.
The MP3/WMA player can play MP3
and WMA files on CD−ROM, CD−R and
CD−RW discs.
The unit can play disc recordings com-
patible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level
2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
When naming an MP3 or WMA file,
add the appropriate file extension (.mp3
or .wma).
The MP3/WMA player plays back files
with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as
MP3 or WMA files. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropri-
ate file extensions.
Multi−session compatible CDs can also
be played.
MP3 files are compatible with the ID3
Tag Ver.1.0, Ver.1.1, Ver.2.2, and
Ver.2.3 formats. The unit cannot display
disc title, track title and artist name in
other formats.
