the following safety information:

●

  Do not operate this product, any applications, or the rear 

view camera option (if purchased) if doing so will divert your 

attention in any way from the safe operation of your vehicle. 

Always observe safe driving rules and follow all existing 

traffic regulations. If you experience difficulty in operating 

this product or reading the display, park your vehicle in a

necessary adjustments.

●

  Never set the volume of this product so high that you cannot 

hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.

●

  To promote safety, certain functions are disabled unless the 

vehicle is stopped and/or the parking brake is applied.

●

  Keep this manual handy as a reference for operating proce-

dures and safety information.

●

  Do not install this product where it may (i) obstruct the

  Please remember to fasten your seat belt at all times while

CAUTION 
This product is a Class 1 laser product classified under the 
Safety of laser products, IEC 60825-1:2007, and contains a 
class 1M laser module. To ensure continued safety, do not 
remove any covers or attempt to gain access to the inside of 
the product. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.

This product contains chemicals known to the State of 
California and other governmental entities to cause cancer 
and birth defects or other reproductive harm. 

Get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level—

a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoy-

ing blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting 

your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your 

hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound, so 

what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your 

hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe 

level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

●

  Set your volume control at a low setting.

●

  Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably 

and clearly, without distortion.

●

  Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set 

the dial and leave it there.
