1. PRECAUTIONS
2. CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
LCD panel/Generalities
WARNING
For your safety, the driver should not watch the TV or operate the controls while
driving. Please note that watching and operating the TV while driving are prohibited by
law in some countries. Also, while driving, keep the volume to a level at which external
sounds can be heard.
For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.
•
Be sure to store the LCD panel inside the
main unit when parking the car outdoors
for long period of time. The LCD panel will
operate properly in a temperature range of
0 to 60°C.
Don’t allow any liquids on the set from
drinks, umbrellas etc. Doing so may
damage the internal circuitry.
•
Do not insert objects or poke in the space
between the LCD panel and the main unit
when the panel is tilted.
1. When the inside of the car is very cold and
the player is used soon after switching on
the heater, moisture may form on the disc
(CD/DVD) or the optical parts of the player
and proper playback may not be possible.
If moisture forms on the disc (CD/DVD),
wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture
forms on the optical parts of the player, do
not use the player for about one hour. The
condensation will disappear naturally
allowing normal operation.
4. TV broadcast reception
•
•
Do not place anything on the display when
the panel is tilted.
When receiving the TV broadcasts, the
strength of the signals changes since the
car is moving, so in some cases it may
not be possible to receive clear pictures.
•
The remote controller may not work if the
remote control sensor is exposed to direct
sunlight.
• TV signals are strongly linear, so
reception is affected by buildings,
mountains and other obstacles.
•
•
Do not disassemble or modify the set in any
way. Doing so may result in damage.
•
In extremely cold weather, the display
movement may slow down and the display
may darken, but this is not a malfunction.
The display will work normally when the
temperature increases.
Do not draw the LCD panel out and use it
as a tray. Also, subjecting the LCD panel to
shocks may result in breakage, deformation
or other damage.
• Such external factors such as electric
train lines, a high voltage lines, and
signal devices may disturb the picture or
cause noise.
∗ If the reception is poor, switch to a station
with good reception.
•
•
Small black and shiny spots inside the LCD
panel are normal for LCD products.
•
•
Do not let cigarettes burn the display. Doing
so may damage or deform the cabinet.
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which
cause severe vibration may cause the
sound to skip.
The LCD panel may stop temporarily when
it opens or closes, when the engine stops
or when it is cold.
If a problem should occur, have the set
inspected at your store of purchase.
INFORMATION FOR USERS:.
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism.
Even in the event that trouble arises, never
open the case, disassemble the unit, or
lubricate the rotating parts.
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS
PRODUCT NOT APPROVED BY THE
MANUFACTURER WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY.
Cleaning
On navigation
• If the NAVI mode is turned to NVG, the FNC
button becomes invalid and the audio
modes cannot be switched.
• Cleaning the cabinet
• Cleaning the LCD panel
Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe off the
dirt. For tough dirt, apply some neutral
detergent diluted in water to a soft cloth, wipe
off the dirt gently, then wipe again with a dry
cloth.
The LCD panel tends to collect dust, so wipe it
off occasionally with a soft cloth. The surface
is easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard
objects.
Do not use benzene, thinner, car cleaner,
etc., as these substances may damage the
cabinet or cause the paint to peel. Also,
leaving rubber or plastic products in contact
with the cabinet for long periods of time may
cause stains.

∗ The group of programmes, which is transmitted
on a single frequency is called “ensemble”.
∗ Some DAB stations have several ensembles

CAUTIONS ON WIRING
1. Be sure to turn the power off before wiring.
2. Be particularly careful where you route the
wires.
Keep them well away from the engine, and
exhaust pipe, etc. Heat may damage the
wires.
3. If the fuse should blow, check to see if the
wiring is correct.
If it is, replace the fuse with a new one with
the same amperage rating as the original.
4. When any fuse is to be replaced, pull out
the fuse (15A) at the rear of the main unit
and put in a new one (Fig.10).
