- Installation Flexibility: The manual acknowledges that some installation steps (like the fixation metal sheet) might be skipped depending on the vehicle.
Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning: The unit should be kept clean by regularly removing dust with a soft, dry cleaning rag. Major soilings can be removed with a wet cleaning rag, but chemical or alcohol-containing detergents should be avoided to prevent damage to the unit's varnish.
- Repair: Users are explicitly warned not to open or attempt to repair the unit themselves due to the risk of electrocution and invalidation of the warranty. All repair operations should be left to professional technicians.
- Overheating Prevention: Vent holes must not be occluded to prevent heat generation and accumulation, which could lead to fire.
- Moisture Protection: The unit should not be exposed to moist environments (e.g., adverse weather conditions, inappropriate wet cleaning) to avoid fire or electric shock.
- Battery Recycling: Empty batteries should be disposed of at municipal collection points, especially those containing pollutants like mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), or cadmium (Cd), which are marked with a specific symbol.
- Unit Recycling: At the end of its service life, the unit (electric and electronic device) should be separated from domestic waste and handed in for recycling at municipal collection points.
The manual strongly recommends professional installation to ensure correct wiring, prevent damage, and maintain warranty validity. It also provides troubleshooting tips for common issues like remote control malfunction, the unit not turning on, poor radio reception, and loss of stored radio stations.
