Important precautions for mobile radio operation

 The use of protective tape or covering is recommended to protect the wiring and the
power cord inside the vehicle.
 When installing the unit inside a vehicle, locate the radio, antenna, co-axial cable,
etc. at least 20 cm away from the following control equipment.
● Engine-related:
● Transmission-related: Transmission and 4WD electronic control unit
● Others:
 Install the antenna and co-axial cable away from the control unit and wiring harness.
Place all cables so they do not entangle and impede the driver or passengers. Never
place any equipment in a location where it may pose a danger to the passengers,
where it may interfere with driving, or obstruct the driver field of view.
 Do not install any apparatus in such a way that it may interfere with the proper
operation of the air bags.
 After installing the radio, check that the brake lamp, head lamp, turning indicator
lights, wiper, etc. are working normally with the radio power switched on.
 Keep full attention on driving, do not operate the radio controls or look at the radio
display while driving. Stop the vehicle at a safe location, before operating the radio
controls or looking at the display.
 Do not drive the car in such a way that external sounds required for safe driving
cannot be heard. Most areas and districts prohibit the use of earphones and
headphones while driving.
 When using the radio transmitter, if it appears to have abnormal effects on the control
equipment of the vehicle, stop the engine, turn off the power supply, and disconnect
the power cord. Resolve the problem before continuing to operate the radio
equipment.
 When using the radio in an electric or hybrid car, the receiver may experience high
RF interference and noise from the inverters that are built into the electric vehicle.
