Additional Information
Precautions
• Cool off the unit beforehand if your car has been
parked in direct sunlight.
• Do not leave the front panel or audio devices
brought in inside the car, or it may cause damage
or malfunction due to high temperature in direct
sunlight.
• Power antenna (aerial) extends automatically.
Moisture condensation
Should moisture condensation occur inside the unit,
remove the disc and wait for about an hour for it to
dry out; otherwise the unit will not operate properly.
To maintain high sound quality
Do not splash liquid onto the unit or discs.
Notes on LCD panel
•
Do not wet the LCD panel or expose it to
liquids. This may cause a malfunction.
• Do not press on the LCD panel as doing so can
distort the picture or cause a malfunction (i.e., the
picture may become unclear, or the LCD panel
may be damaged).
• Do not touch other than with the finger, as it may
damage or break the LCD panel.
• Clean the LCD panel with a dry soft cloth. Do not
use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, or antistatic
spray.
• Do not use this unit outside the temperature range
5 – 45 ºC (41 – 113 ºF).
• If your car was parked in a cold or hot place, the
picture may not be clear. However, the monitor is
not damaged, and the picture will become clear
after the temperature in your car becomes normal.
• Some stationary blue, red or green dots may
appear on the monitor. These are called “bright
spots,” and can happen with any LCD. The LCD
panel is precision-manufactured with more than
99.99% of its segments functional. However, it is
possible that a small percentage (typically 0.01%)
of the segments may not light up properly. This
will not, however, interfere with your viewing.

sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
