* Warning when installing in a car without an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition key

After turning off the ignition, be sure to press OFF on the unit for 2 seconds to turn off the clock display.
Otherwise, the clock display does not turn off and this causes battery drain.

The unit can be operated with the card remote commander. For safety, stop the car before
using the card remote commander, or have a passenger operate it.

Note
If the unit is turned off by pressing OFF for 2 seconds, it cannot be operated with the card remote commander unless
SOURCE on the unit is pressed to activate the unit first.

Tip
See “Replacing the lithium battery” for details on how to replace the battery (page 46).

Installation angle
The unit should be installed within an
angle of 25 degrees from horizontal. If
this angle is exceeded, the monitor may
not open up or retract properly.

Note
Keep the units and connection cables
apart.
The Media Center main unit and the
connection box 1 should not be in close
proximity.

This unit is designed to be completely safe, but if not installed
correctly, it can cause accidents. Be sure to verify the following
points before installation.
Install the main unit to the in-dash location, and the connection
box under the navigator’s seat, etc.
• If the monitor in the opened position is close to a air-

conditioning outlet, the outlet should be closed.

• Install the unit so that the monitor when opened up will not

block access to the hazard switch or other important controls.

• Do not install the unit (monitor) in locations which may be

subject to excessively low or high temperatures. (Otherwise the
unit may be deformed and the LCD may be damaged.)
Exposure to direct sunlight can also lead to high temperatures
and should be avoided.

• Perform the installation carefully. Dropping the unit or

otherwise subjecting it to strong impact or force may deform
the chassis, resulting in failure of the monitor loading
mechanism or other defects.

• To allow for proper opening and closing of the monitor, there

must be a clearance of at least 147 mm between the closest
position of the shift lever and the mounting surface for the unit.

• In some cases, the shift lever may touch the monitor when

moved to a certain position. Make sure that there is no
obstruction to driving operations.

• When installing this unit together with other car audio

equipment (single DIN slot size) in a stacked configuration,
install the Media Center main unit on top.

Note
If the installation dimensions shown at
right are not observed, the monitor may
not open up smoothly. If this happens,
check the installation once more and
modify the cluster panel where the
dimension requirements are not met. For
some car models, a separately available
mounting kit may be required.
(For details, please consult your dealer.)
