2. TV broadcast reception
•
•
Do not disassemble or modify the set in any
way. Doing so may result in damage.
•
In extremely cold weather, the display move-
ment may slow down and the display may
darken, but this is not a malfunction.The dis-

increases.
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.
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.
