to entering your vehicle always
do a visual check of the area
behind your vehicle, and before
backing up be aware of your sur-

rear view camera by looking over
your shoulders and checking
your rear view mirrors. Due to the
difficulty of ensuring that the

Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
try to operate mobile devices as far
from the audio equipment as possible.
When using a communication sys-
tem such as a cellular phone or a
radio set inside the vehicle, a sepa-
rate external antenna must be fitted.
When a cellular phone or a radio set
is used with an internal antenna
alone, it may interfere with the vehi-
cle's electrical system and adversely
affect safe operation of the vehicle.
Caring for disc
If the temperature inside the car is too high, open the car windows to
ventilate before using the system.
It is illegal to copy and use MP3/WMA files without permis-
sion. Use CDs that are created
only by lawful means.

cleaners and magnetic sprays
made for analogue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged, hold CDs by the
edges or the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece of soft cloth before playback (wipe
it from the center to the outside
edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or attach pieces of sticky tape or
paper.
Make certain only CDs are insert- ed into the CD player (Do not insert
more than one CD at a time).
Keep CDs in their cases after use to protect them from scratches or
dirt.WARNING- Cell Phone
