Dear Customer,
Thank you for selecting our unit. In order for you to utilize this device and all its options, we
recommend that you read the corresponding instructions in this manual before the initial use of the
device, even if you’re familiar with handling electronic devices. Please pay particular attention to the
chapter “Important safety instructions”. Store this manual in a safe location for future reference. The
descriptions and features in this manual only serve as general information and do not represent a
guarantee. In order to offer you a product of the highest quality, we reserve the right to make possible
improvements or changes without prior notification.
Important Safety Instructions
Please read and strictly observe the following instructions!
The supplier waves any and all liability when these warnings are not followed:
-
Never open the case of the car radio; it does not contain any serviceable parts! If the case is
open, there is a risk of fatality due to electric shock.
-
Do not give your car radio and especially the accessories to children. Never let your children
use electrical devices without supervision. Children are not always able to recognize
potential hazards. Also keep the packaging films away from children. There is a danger of
suffocation.
- The car radio and the accompanying components may not be exposed to dripping or
sprayed water. Make sure that no containers filled with liquid, such as e.g. cups or bottles,
are placed in the vicinity of the device.
- Please familiarize yourself with the different functions of your device before you begin
driving. Excessively high volumes can pose a risk for you and other people in traffic.
Therefore always select the volume at such a level that environmental sounds (horns, sirens,
etc.) can still be perceived.
-
Don’t use the car radio at an excessive volume. This poses a risk to your hearing.
-
Please only perform lengthy changes of the device settings while the vehicle is parked. Your
concentration might be affected by the changes.
- To promote safety, certain functions are disabled unless the parking brake is on. The Unit is
designed to detect parked status and must be connected to the power supply side of the
parking brake switch. Improper connection or use of his connection may violate applicable law
and may result in serious injury or damage. To avoid the risk of damage and injury and the
potential violation of applicable laws, this unit is not for use with a video screen that is visible
to the driver.
- Only install the device in such a manner that safe driving is assured. To avoid the risk of
accident and the potential violation of applicable laws, the front Video image feature should
never be used while the vehicle is being driven. Also, other video displays should not be in a
location where it is a visible distraction to the driver. In some countries or states the viewing of
images on a display inside a vehicle even by persons other than the driver may be illegal.
Where such regulations apply, they must be obeyed and this unit’s DVD features should not
be used.
- Install the device in such a manner that it doesn't impede the driver and can't injure any of
the vehicle’s occupants in the event of emergency braking.
-
Don’t flip the monitor mechanism by hand. This could damage the mechanics.
-
The TFT color monitor consists of glass and liquid crystals. Don’t put any excessive pressure
on the monitor, since otherwise it might scratch, break, or sustain other damages. In addition,
the image quality might be impaired.
- Don’t touch the monitor surface with hard objects and only clean it with a soft, dry cloth and
special TFT cleaner.
- Don’t use the device for a longer period while the vehicle's engine isn't running. This could
drain the vehicle battery to the degree that the car can no longer be started. In addition, this
might reduce the lifespan of the battery.
- Don’t park your vehicle in direct sunlight for extended periods, otherwise the temperature in
the car’s interior could rise to the point that the device overheats and causes malfunctions. If
possible, cool the interior of the vehicle in order to ensure that the device will operate properly.
-
Only let the device be installed by qualified vehicle technicians.
