First time I have been on here.
Have just bought an imported Pajero which has a Panasonic stereo/CD / DVD / TV / Sat Nav - model CN-HDS620RD. Manual is all in Japanese. have search the web for an english version but can only find Japanese references. I have seen lots of these radios in imported Pajero's. Does anyone know where I might get advice on it in Wellington and or get a english manual?
Thanks

827845 2009-11-07 03:00:00 They are only designed/compatible with Japan, TV and Fm radio use different frequency ranges (Fm could be used with a band expander (ask a auto-leckie)), Satnav would only have Jap maps in it (probably not update-able), you may be able to use the cd/dvd player if you can figure out the control keys (but you cant display the dvd while driving/moving in NZ (against road laws)).
Easier to throw in a NZ model :).

827846 2009-11-07 11:07:00 Come to think of it, dvds prolly wont play either (Japan being Region 1, NZ being Region 4, unless you've ripped and unregioned them :p). feersumendjinn (64)
