1. PRECAUTIONS

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.

MAIN

Contents

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.

4.TV broadcast reception

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.

???TV signals are strongly linear, so reception is affected by buildings, mountains and other obstacles.

???Such external factors such as electric train lines, a high voltage lines, and signal devices may disturb the picture or cause noise.

Clock Time display

2.Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.

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.

???If the reception is poor, switch to a station with good reception.

???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 oper-

ate 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 in- ternal circuitry.

???Do not disassemble or modify the set in any way. Doing so may result in damage.

???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.

???Do not let cigarettes burn the display. Doing so may damage or deform the cabinet.

???If a problem should occur, have the set in- spected at your store of purchase.

???Do not insert objects or poke in the space be- tween the LCD panel and the main unit when the panel is tilted.

???Do not place anything on the display when the panel is tilted.

???The remote controller may not work if the re- mote control sensor is exposed to direct sun- light.

???In extremely cold weather, the display move- ment may slow down and the display may darken, but this is not a malfunction. The dis- play will work normally when the temperature increases.

???Small black and shiny spots inside the LCD panel are normal for LCD products.

???The LCD panel may stop temporarily when it opens or closes, when the engine stops or when it is cold.

Cleaning

???Cleaning the cabinet

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.

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.

???Cleaning the LCD panel

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 ob- jects.
