When the electric power is supplied to the car battery cord, the power
lamp lights up.

Notes
• Route the cords so that they will not interfere with your driving.
• Take care not to accidentally insert a portion of the car connecting pack

cord into the cassette insertion slot.  This may cause the cord to break or
damage the car cassette deck.

• To disconnect the cord from your audio equipment, pull it out by

grasping the plug.  Never pull it by the cord.

• If the inside of the cigarette lighter socket is dirty with cigarette ash, the

cigarette lighter plug may be heated due to abnormal contact.  Be sure
to clean the inside of the cigarette lighter socket before inserting the
plug.

• After using the receiver, eject the car connecting pack from the car

cassette deck and disconnect the car battery cord from the receiver and
the cigarette lighter socket.

• Do not use the receiver when the car’s engine is not running.

Turn down the volume of the car cassette deck.

Set the tape selector to the normal (TYPE I) position, and the
DOLBY NR, REPEAT, or BLANK SKIP switch to the OFF
position if such are equipped.

Insert the car connecting pack into the cassette deck.

Start playback on the car cassette deck.

Adjust the volume.

If no sound is heard or the car connecting pack is removed, change the
playback direction on the car cassette deck.

Press the Z (eject) button of the car cassette deck.

Note
You cannot use this car connecting pack with certain car cassette decks.

Pull the cigarette lighter plug out of the cigarette lighter
socket.

Detach the end of the plug by turning it counterclockwise.

Replace the fuse with a new one.

Reattach the end of the plug by turning it clockwise firmly.

Notes
• When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one with the correct amperage,

as stated on the fuse case. (1 A, 125 V, 20 mm)

• Do not use a piece of wire instead of a fuse.
• If the replaced fuse opens again, consult your dealer.

Use the AC power adaptor and the audio cord supplied with
DRN-XM01H/XM01HK.

Note on the DC plug of the AC power adaptor
This AC power adaptor uses a unified polarity type plug (JEITA
standard).  Damage will occur if it is connected to a DC power input jack
without the ! polarity symbol or with another symbol.  If the jack of
your audio equipment does not match the AC power adaptor, consult
your dealer.

The satellite is located in the south sky. Place the antenna as follows for
proper reception:
– Outside the house
– Place the antenna in an area where there are no obstacles within 20 - 60

degrees facing the southern sky.

– On a flat surface so that it is parallel to the ground.
When you place it indoors, or if there is a building or tree in the direction
of the satellite, the antenna may not be able to receive the radio wave.
Depending on where you live, you may be able to receive radio waves
that are retransmitted by ground repeaters.

If the fuse blows, check the power connection and replace the fuse.  If the
fuse blows again after replacement, there may be an internal malfunction.

Use a fuse with the specified amperage rating.  Use of a higher amperage
fuse may cause serious damage.

This RF modulator supplies power to the receiver and detects the on/off
state by monitoring the load of the power. When the receiver is turned on,
the RF modulator automatically cuts off the antenna line and directly
outputs the sound of the receiver to the car audio with the selected FM
frequency. This prevents the sound from disturbing the FM broadcast
signal. When the receiver is turned off, the antenna line is connected to
the car audio. Besides, you can set the RF modulator to always cut off the
antenna line and output the XM radio sound to the car audio, in this case,
you cannot hear the normal FM broadcast.

This unit changes the signal of the XM satellite radio broadcast into an
FM frequency and outputs the sound through an FM tuner. There may be
interference noise while playing the receiver, when the frequency selected
for the receiver is used for transmitting the actual FM broadcast. In such a
case, change the transmitting frequency on the unit. The factory-set is 87.9
MHz.

Note
When you change the frequency on the unit, be sure to tune your FM
tuner to the newly selected one.

After installing and connecting the unit, run cord so as not to interfere
with the operation of the vehicle.

Run and fix the cord on the passenger side of the center console with the
supplied cord clamp.

* • Clean the mounting surface before installing the cord clamp.

• Leave the installed cord clamp for 24 hours before installing the

cord. Otherwise, the cord clamp may come off because of weak
attachment.

Note
Make sure the cord does not get caught in the sliding rails under the front
seats or the front doorsills as this may cause the cord to be severed.

• Do not install the unit where:

– the ambient temperature exceeds 55°C (131°F).
– it will be exposed to direct sunlight or hot air from a heater.
– it will be exposed to rain, water, or high humidity.
– it will be exposed to a lot of dust.
– it will be subject to excessive vibration.
– hinder normal driving activities.
– jeopardize the passengers.

• Be sure to turn off the power of each component before making the

connections.

Be sure to check that the voltage of the equipment connected to this unit
is correct.  Incorrect voltage may cause the equipment to malfunction.
• This unit is designed for negative ground 12 or 24 V DC operation only.
• Avoid high temperatures, such as direct sunlight or hot air from the

heater.

• You cannot use this unit with some car cassette deck.
• Used with some car cassette decks, the car connecting pack may rattle.

This is not a malfunction of the car connecting pack.

Note on the DC plug of the car battery cord
This car battery cord uses a unified polarity type
plug (JEITA standard).  Damage will occur if it is
connected to a DC power input jack without the
!

 polarity symbol or with another symbol.

• This unit is designed for negative ground 12 V DC operation only.
• Before making connections, disconnect the earth terminal of the car

battery to avoid short circuits.

• Connect the red power input leads only after all other leads have been

connected.

• Be sure to connect the red power input lead to the positive 12 V

• Run all earth wires to a common earth point.

Do not place the AC power adaptor in a location where it is subject to:
– extreme high temperature (E.g., in a car with its windows closed)
– direct sunlight or near a heat source
– mechanical vibration or shock
– a magnetic field (E.g., near a magnet, speaker, or TV)
– excessive dust.

• Make sure the current and voltage of the equipment matches that of the

outlet.

• For safety, if the input current is too high, the unit will automatically

shut down.

• Do not use the unit near a TV set. If you place equipment too close to

the unit while they are being used, you may experience some
interference.

• To prevent damage, be careful not to drop or otherwise cause a

mechanical shock to the unit.

• After using, disconnect the unit from the wall outlet and the equipment.
• Disconnect the unit from the AC outlet by pulling on the plug.  Do not

pull on the cord.

• To avoid short-circuiting, do not allow the terminals of the unit or

connector to touch any metal object.

• Use only the recommended AC power adaptor.

• Clean the unit with a soft, dry cloth.  If the unit is very dirty, wipe it off

with a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution, and
then wipe with a soft dry cloth.

• Do not use any type of solvent such as alcohol, thinner, or benzine as it

may damage the finish of the cabinet.

• If you use any chemical cleaner, observe the instructions provided with

the product.

• If the cabinet of the unit is splashed with any type of solvent such as

insecticide, or remains in contact for a long time with rubber or vinyl,
the finish or the cabinet may be damaged.

Replace the battery when the buttons on the remote commander do not
work. Remove the old battery and insert a new one.

Insert a long and thin object into the hole, then pull out the
lithium battery holder.

Place the lithium battery with the positive (+) side facing up.

Insert the battery holder into the remote commander until it
clicks.
