4. TV broadcast reception

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/

MD) or the optical parts of the player and

proper playback may not be possible. If mois-

ture forms on the disc (CD/MD), wipe it off

with a soft cloth. If moisture forms on the op-

tical parts of the player, do not use the player

for about one hour.The condensation will dis-

appear naturally allowing normal operation.

Contents

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.

off occasionally with a soft cloth. The surface is

easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard ob-

jects.

GENERAL CAUTIONS

INSTALLING THE MAIN UNIT

■ Universal Mount

1. Do not open the case. There are no user

serviceable parts inside. If you drop anything

into the unit during installation, consult your

dealer or an authorized CLARION service

centre.

use a rough cloth, thinner, benzine, or alco-

hol, etc. For tough dirt, apply a little cold or

warm water to a soft cloth and wipe off the

dirt gently.

1. Place the universal mounting bracket into the

instrument panel, use a screwdriver to bend

each stopper of the universal mounting

bracket inward, then secure the stopper as

shown in Figure 6.

2. Wire as shown in Section 8.

Notes:

3. Insert the main unit into the universal mount-

ing bracket until it locks.
