Notes
WARNING
• This unit cannot be installed in a vehicle without
ACC (accessory) position on the ignition switch.
• To avoid the risk of accident and the potential
violation of applicable laws, no viewing of front
seat video should ever occur while the vehicle is
being driven.
• In some countries or states the viewing of images
on a display inside a vehicle even by persons
other than the driver may be illegal. Where such
regulations apply, they must be obeyed.
CAUTION
• PIONEER does not recommend that you
install or service your display yourself.
Installing or servicing the product may
expose you to risk of electric shock or other
hazards. Refer all installation and servicing
of your display to authorized Pioneer service
personnel.
•
Secure all wiring with cable clamps or
electrical tape. Do not allow any bare wiring
to remain exposed.
• Do not drill a hole into the engine
compartment to connect the yellow lead
of the unit to the vehicle battery. Engine
vibration may eventually cause the insulation
to fail at the point where the wire passes from
the passenger compartment into the engine
compartment. Take extra care in securing the
wire at this point.
•
Mak
e sure that wires will not interfere with
moving parts of the vehicle, such as the
gear shift, parking brake or seat sliding
mechanism.
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the
pr
otection circuit may fail to work properly.
WARNING
LIGHT GREEN LEAD AT POWER CONNECTOR
IS DESIGNED TO DETECT PARKED STATUS
AND MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE POWER
SUPPLY SIDE OF THE PARKING BRAKE SWITCH.
IMPROPER CONNECTION OR USE OF THIS
LEAD MAY VIOLATE APPLICABLE LAW AND MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE.

• Use this unit in other than the following
conditions could result in fire or malfunction.
— Vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative
grounding.
— Speakers with 50 W (output value) and 4 ohm
to 8 ohm (impedance value).
• To prevent short-circuit, overheating or
malfunction, be sure to follow the directions
below.
— Disconnect
the negative terminal of the
battery before installation.
— Secure the wiring with cable clamps or
adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap
adhesive tape around them where they lie
against metal parts.
— Place all cables away from moving parts, such
as gear shift and seat rails.
— Place all cables away from hot places, such as
near the heater outlet.
— Do not pass the yellow cable through a hole
into the engine compartment to connect to a
battery.
— Cover
any disconnected cable connectors with
insulating tape.
— Do not shorten any cables.
— Never cut the insulation of the power cable of
this unit in order to share the power to other
equipment. Current capacity of the cable is
limited.
— Use
a fuse of the rating prescribed.
— Never wire the speaker negative cable directly
to ground.
— Never band together multiple speaker’s
negative cables.
• Control signal is output through blue/white cable
when this unit is powered on. Connect it to an
external power amp’s system remote control or
the vehicle’s auto-antenna relay control terminal
(max. 300 mA, 12 V DC). If the vehicle is equipped
with a glass antenna, connect it to the antenna
booster power supply terminal.

Connecting the units
English
• Never connect blue/white cable to external power
amp’s power terminal. Also, never connect
it to the power terminal of the auto antenna.
Otherwise, battery drain or malfunction may
result.
• Black
cable is ground. This cable and other
product’s ground cable (especially, high-current
products such as power amp) must be wired
separately. Otherwise, fire or malfunction may
result if they are accidentally detached.
