In Case Of Trouble; Connecting The Unit - Pioneer ND-G500 Mode D'emploi

In case of trouble

When the unit does not operate properly,
contact your dealer or the nearest autho-
rized PIONEER Service Station.
CAUTION
• Never replace the fuse with one of greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use of an
improper fuse could result in overheating and
smoke and could cause damage to the product
and injury including burns.
WARNING
• Do not touch the amplifier with wet hands.
Otherwise you may get an electric shock. Also,
do not touch the amplifier when it is wet.
• For traffic safety and to maintain safe driving
conditions, keep the volume low enough so that
you can still hear normal traffic sound.
• Check the connections of the power supply and
speakers if the amplifier fuse blows. Detect the
cause and solve the problem, then replace the
fuse with another one of the same size and rating.
• To prevent malfunction of the amplifier and
speakers, the protective circuit will cut the power
supply to the amplifier (sound will stop) when an
abnormal condition occurs. In such a case, switch
the power to the system OFF and check the
connection of the power supply and speakers.
Detect the cause and solve the problem.
• Contact the dealer if you cannot detect the cause.
• To prevent an electric shock or short-circuit
during connection and installation, be sure to
disconnect the negative (–) terminal of the battery
beforehand.
• DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact
with liquids due to, for example, the location
where the amplifier is installed. Electrical shock
could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from contact
with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface
and the surface of any attached speakers could
become hot to the touch and minor burns could
result.

Connecting the Unit

CAUTION
• Disconnect the negative (–) terminal of the
battery to avoid the risk of short-circuit and
damage to the unit.
• Do not route wires where they will get hot, for
example where the heater will blow over them. If
the insulation heats up, it may become damaged,
resulting in a short-circuit through the vehicle
body.
• Make sure that wires will not interfere with
moving parts of the vehicle, such as the gearshift,
handbrake or seat sliding mechanism.
• Do not shorten any wires. Otherwise the
protection circuit may fail to work when it
should.
• Never feed power to other equipment by cutting
the insulation of the power supply wire to tap
from the wire. The current capacity of the wire
will be exceeded, causing overheating.
• Never replace the fuse with one of greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use of an
improper fuse could result in overheating and
smoke and could cause damage to the product
and injury including burns.
CAUTION
To prevent damage and/or injury
• This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and
negative grounding. Before installing it in a
recreational vehicle, truck or bus, check the
battery voltage.
• If the car stereo is kept on for a long time while
the engine is at rest or idling, the battery may go
dead. Turn the car stereo off when the engine is at
rest or idling.
