will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
CAUTION  
This unit is designed to operate on 12 volts DC, NEGATIVE ground electrical systems only.  
When fuse replacement is necessary, use only a 15 amp fuse. Do not replace with a higher rated fuse.  
If the fuse blows often, carefully check all electrical connections for any short circuits and have your  
car's voltage regulator checked also.  
Do not install the unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or hot air discharged from the car heater.  
Do not expose the unit to water or moisture.  
To avoid damaging the unit, never insert anything other than a compact disc into the disc slot.  
This unit should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel.  
If servicing is required, return the unit to an authorized SANYO mobile audio dealer.  
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may  
result in hazardous radiation exposure.

COMPACT DISC CARE  
Dirt, dust, scratches and warpage can cause a deterioration in the sound or intermittent skipping some tracks  
during play.  
This unit has been designed to play compact discs  
bearing the identification logo shown on the left.  
Discs bearing other types of identification logos  
may not play properly.  
Playback may not be possible due to the  
characteristics of the CD recorder or the CD-R/RW  
used, or due to scratches or dirt on the CD.  
For some CD-R/RWs, depending on the quality  
of their recording or storage media used, playback  
may not be possible due to deterioration of  
recorded of material.  
Do not use non-conventional discs such as  
heart-shaped, octagonal discs, etc.  
The player could be damaged.  
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped  
from the signal surface of the disc (glossy side) with  
a soft cloth.  
Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the  
outside of the disc. Unlike conventional records,  
the compact disc has no grooves to collect dust and  
Label Side  
debris. Small dust particles will have no effect on  
reproduction quality.  
Do not insert a disc which is cracked into the unit.  
Do not apply paper or write anything on the disc.  
To prevent warping the disc, do not expose it to  
direct sunlight, high humidity or high temperatures  
for extended periods.  
-3-  
 
Never use chemicals such as record cleaning  
sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzene or  
thinner to clean compact discs. These chemicals  
will permanently damage the plastic surface of  
the disc.  
When not using the disc player for extended  
periods, remove the compact disc and return it to  
the plastic storage case. This will protect the disc  
from dust and exposure to the sun.  
Benzene Thinner Cleaning spray  
Mixed-mode CDs  
This product can only play audio tracks on mixed-mode CDs.  
The initial track contains non-audio data, and so it does not produce any sound.  
Playback will start from the next track.  
(Mixed-mode CDs are CDs which contain both non-audio data and audio tracks.)  
CDs containing copy control protection technology.  
It is possible that some CDs with copy control protection (added to prevent computer  
duplication) may not play on this unit.  
This is due to the CD with copy control protection not conforming to CD standards and is  
not due to a malfunction of this unit.  
If there are any problems playing a CD with copy control protection, consult the store where  
the CD was purchased.

HINTS FOR PROPER AND SAFE OPERATION  
Condensation  
Moisture can condense on the optical lens of the CD player during humid or rainy days, or after the car  
heater is turned on. If this occurs the disc player may not function properly. To remedy the situation,  
remove the disc from the unit and wait approximately one hour. This should allow the moisture to  
evaporate and restore normal operation.  
Temperature Consideration  
The unit may not operate correctly in extremely hot or cold temperatures. Avoid exposing the unit to  
extremely high or low temperatures.  
Interruptions in the sound (skipping)  
When the car is driven on very rough surfaces, the sound from the CD player may skip and be interrupted.  
This will not cause any damage to the disc or the player. If this occurs, wait for the road surface to  
improve before using the CD player.  
Safety  
For safer driving, keep the volume at a moderate level to enable you to hear outside sounds (such as  
emergency vehicle sirens).  
Cleaning the unit  
Clean the unit with a soft, dry cloth. Stains should be removed by wiping the surfaces with a soft cloth  
immersed in lukewarm water and wrung dry. Never use strong chemicals or solvents. These will damage  
the finish of the unit.  
Disc care  
When not using the disc player for extended periods, remove the compact disc and return it to the  
plastic storage case. Do not leave a disc partially ejected from the player.  
Servicing  
Should a problem develop, do not open the unit or try to repair it yourself. If servicing is required, bring  
the unit to a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

CAUTION  
DO NOT connect any speaker wires to the metal body or chassis of the vehicle.  
DO NOT connect the speaker common (-) wires to each other.  
Connect each speaker wire directly to each speaker terminal.  
All speaker common (-) wires must remain floating.  
1 Antenna socket  
Insert the plug from the antenna installed in your vehicle into this socket. (If your vehicle has a dual  
antenna system, a dual antenna to single antenna cable adaptor may be required.)  
2 +12V Constant Power Supply (Yellow)  
Connect this wire to the +12V power terminal which receives power continuously.  
Connect to location drawing 10 A amperage or more.  
3 +12V Accessory/Switched (Red)  
Connect this wire to the terminal which receives power while the ignition switch is at ON or  
ACCESSORY position.  
If the ignition switch does not have an ACC position, connect this wire to a +12V  
power terminal which receives power continuously. (Same as item 2.)  
Connect to location drawing 100 mA amperage or more.  
4 Ground wire (Black)  
Connect this wire to the vehicle chassis.  
5 Power Antenna (Blue/Red)  
Connect this wire to the control terminal of a Power Antenna.  
When not using a Power Antenna, this wire is not connected.  
6 Amplifier Turn On (Blue/White)  
Connect this wire to an external amplifier.  
When not using an external amplifier, this wire is not connected.

Notes  
When using a two-speaker installation, the Green, Green/Black, Violet, Violet/Black wires,  
which are used for a four-speaker installation, are not used. The ends of these wires must  
be covered with electrical tape to prevent them from shorting to the unit or the vehicle chassis.  
When using a two-speaker installation, set the  
FADER control to the center position.  
When fuse replacement is necessary remove  
the blown fuse by using pliers.  
Then install the new 15 amp. fuse.
