Warning
Do not disassemble or remodel the unit.
This can cause electric shock, personal injury or fire. Do not connect any other system’s power
supply cord to the unit’s power supply cord directly. If you are in any doubt about the safe
installation of this unit, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Do not damage any pipes, tubes, fuel tank or electric wiring system when installing
this unit.
This can cause fire. Before drilling any holes in car panels for the installation of this unit, make
sure the installation will not damage any hidden car parts.
Do not use any nuts or bolts connected to the steering linkage, fuel supply or braking
systems.
This can cause fire or loss of control of the car.
Do not mount the Digital TV Tuner unit where it will interfere with the airbag system.
This may cause the airbag to malfunction and injury to the passenger in case of a crash.
Caution
• This unit is designed for negative earth 12 V DC operation only.
•Do not get the wires under a screw, or caught in moving parts (e.g. seat railing).
• Before making connections, turn the car ignition off to avoid short circuits.
• Connect the red power input leads only after all other leads have been connected.
• Be sure to connect the red power input lead to the positive 12 V power terminal which is
energized when the ignition key is in the accessory position.
After installing and connecting the unit, tape the cords to tie them up in a bundle so it will not
interfere with normal driving operations. Be sure that the steering, shift lever and brake pedal do
not get tangled in the cords.
It is very dangerous for the cords to become tangled with the gearshift lever during driving.
Notes
• Secure the connecting cords away from the seat adjustment rails and the door frame.
• Make sure all other electric devices such as brake lights and headlights are working properly after installation is
completed. Also check that the indicators turn on and the horn works properly.
Fuse replacement
If the fuse blows, check the power connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again after
replacement, there may be an internal malfunction.
Warning
Use a fuse with the specified amperage rating. Use of a higher amperage fuse may cause serious
damage to the unit.

Mounting the TV antenna
Mounting position (5)
Before installation
• The supplied antennas can be attached to the front and rear window. The antennas can also be
attached to the inside of the front and rear bumper. However, they cannot be attached to a metal
bumper. For details, consult your dealer.
• On days of high humidity (rain, fog, etc.), make sure that the installation surface is fully dry
before beginning the installation. Wet conditions will reduce the adhesive strength and may
cause the aerials to fall off.
• If the installation surface is cold, warm it up first with the car heater, rear window defogger, a
hair dryer or similar. This will increase adhesive strength.
Notes
• Mount the antennas only on the inside of the car.
• When installing the antennas, try to avoid the defogger wiring and the sun film.
• Do not install the antennas in locations which may obstruct the driver’s view.
• Keep the TV antenna cables as far away as possible from wiring for an external amplifier and rear speakers.
Installing the TV antennas (6)
Wipe the intended installation area with a dry cloth to remove any moisture or dust.
It is not necessary to scratch off the paint from the metal surface.
1 Check the TV antenna 6 mounting position (6-1).
2 Attach the TV antenna 6 to the inside of the front and rear window (6-2).
When attaching to the front window, attach it to the area behind the rear-view mirror so that it
will not obstruct the driver’s view.
Peel off the covering paper on the back side of the antennas and stick the antenna onto mounting
surface. After sticking, fix the antenna rods with the adhesive disc.
Note
When you stick the antenna onto the mounting surface, make sure to attach the adhesive disc facing to the glass
side.
Routing TV antenna cables (7)
Route the TV antenna cable using cord clamps (not supplied) to hold it in place.
Fix both sides of the low noise amplifier, which is located midway in the TV antenna cable, with cord
clamps (not supplied) firmly to prevent vibration.
If cables become tangled with the gear shift lever or other controls, there is a severe risk of accident.
Important note
Use tape or other fasteners to rout the cables so that they cannot interfere with vehicle operation.
Note
In some cars, the shape or size of the rear window or the opening of the rear gate may prevent installation of the
antennas. For details, consult your dealer.
Connecting TV antenna cables to Digital TV Tuner
unit (8)
Note
When you connect the connector of the antenna cable, be careful not to damage the centre pin of a connector.
Dealing with excessive TV antenna cable (9)
If you coil the antenna cable and place it in the vicinity of the Digital TV Tuner unit, noise may
occur. Do not coil the cable, and keep it as far as possible from the Digital TV Tuner unit.
After installation
Set the “Antenna feed 5 V” to “ON” in the “System Setting” menu. For details, see “Changing
Setup” (page 17 and 18) in the Instructions manual of Sony XT-DTV20LN.
