2. PRECAUTIONS
• For your safety, the driver should not watch any video sources and/or operate the controls while driving. Please
note that watching and operating any video sources 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.
• When using the navigation system, follow the precautions listed below. After reading this manual, be sure to
keep it in a handy place (such as the glove box of your car).
• This navigation system should not be used to replace your own judgment. No itinerary suggested by this
navigation system should ever override any highway regulations, your own judgment, or a knowledge of safe
driving practices. Do not follow the navigation system’s suggested itinerary if it would cause you to perform a
dangerous or illegal act, place you in a dangerous situation, or take you into an area you consider unsafe.
• The advice provided by the navigation system is to be regarded as a suggestion only. There may be times when
the navigation system displays the vehicle’s location incorrectly, fails to suggest the shortest route, or fails to
direct you to your desired destination. In such instances, rely on your own driving judgment, taking into account
the driving conditions at the time.
• Do not use the navigation system to locate emergency services. The database does not contain a complete
listing of emergency services such as police stations, fire halls, hospitals and walk-in clinics. Please show
discretion and ask for directions in such instances.
• As the driver, you alone are responsible for your driving safety.
• In order to avoid a traffic accident, do not operate the system while driving.
• In order to avoid a traffic accident, operate the system only when the vehicle is stopped at a safe place and the
parking brake is on.
• In order to avoid a traffic accident or traffic offense, remember that actual road conditions and traffic regulations
take precedence over the information contained on the navigation system.
• The software may contain inaccurate or incomplete information due to the passage of time, changing
circumstances, and the sources of information used. Please respect current traffic conditions and regulations at
all times while driving.
• Where actual road conditions and highway regulations differ from the information contained on the navigation
system, abide by the highway regulations.
• Keep the amount of time spent viewing the screen while driving to a strict minimum.
• The navigation system does not provide, nor represent in any way information on: traffic and highway
regulations; technical aspects of the vehicle including weight, height, width, load and speed limits; road
conditions including grade, percentage of incline and surface conditions; obstacles such as the height and
width of bridges and tunnels; and other current driving or road conditions. Always rely on your own judgment
when driving a car, taking into account current driving conditions.
• Do not disassemble or modify this unit. It may cause an accident, fire, or electric shock.
• Do not use this unit when a trouble exists, such as no screen content appears or no sound is audible. It may
cause an accident, fire, or electric shock. For that case, consult your authorized dealer or a nearest Clarion
service center.
• In case of a problem, such as any material has been entered in the unit, the unit gets wet, or smoke or strange
smells come out of the unit, etc., stop using this unit immediately, and consult your authorized dealer or a
nearest Clarion service center.
Using it in that condition may cause an accident, fire, or electric shock.
• Use a fuse with the same specification only when replacing the fuse.
Using a fuse with a different specification may causes a fire.
• For the installation of this unit or a change in the installation, ask your authorized dealer or a nearest Clarion
service center for safety. Professional skills and experiences are required to do so.
WARNING

7NX501E/NZ501E
English
English Owner’s Manual
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 (DVD/CD) or the
optical parts of the player and proper playback may
not be possible. If moisture forms on the disc (DVD/
CD), 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.
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.
CAUTIONS:
This appliance contains a laser system and is
classified as a “CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT”.
To use this model properly, read this owner's
Manual carefully and keep this manual for
your future reference. In case of any trouble
with this player, please contact your nearest
“AUTHORIZED service station”. To prevent
direct exposure to the laser beam, do not try to
open the enclosure. NZ501E

3. CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
Operation Panel
For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.
• The operation panel will operate properly in a
temperature range of 0˚ to 60˚ C.
• Do not allow any liquids on the set from drinks,
umbrellas etc. Doing so may damage the internal
circuitry.
• Do not disassemble or modify the set in any way.
Doing so may result in damage.
• Subjecting the operation panel to shocks may result
in breakage, deformation or other damage.
• Do not let cigarettes burn the display.
• If a problem should occur, have the set inspected at
your store of purchase.
• Do not insert objects or poke in the space between
the operation panel and the main unit when the
panel is tilted.
• The remote control unit may not work if the remote
control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight.
• 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 e temperature increases.
• Small black and shiny spots inside the liquid crystal
panel are normal for LCD products.
USB Port
• The USB memory stick may stick out when inserted,
so it may cause danger during driving. In such
cases, you can use a commercial USB extension
cable, etc., but use it safely under your own
judgment.
• The USB memory sticks must be recognized as
“USB mass storage class” to work properly. Some
models may not operate correctly.
When the memorized data is lost or damaged by any
chance, Clarion shall not be liable for any damage.
When using an USB memory stick, we recommend
that you backup your data stored on it before by
using a personal computer etc.
• Data files may be broken when using USB memory
sticks in the following situation:
When disconnecting the USB memory stick or
turning the power off during writing or reading data.
When affected by static electricity or electric noise.
Connect/disconnect the USB memory stick when it
is not accessed.
• Some USB memory sticks cannot be inserted to the
main unit because of their shape. In such cases, use
a commercial USB extension cable to connect them.
• Connecting with the computer is not covered.
• Music files (MP3, WMA, etc.) stored in the USB
memory stick can be played back.
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 liquid crystal panel
The liquid crystal 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.

Handling
• New discs may have some roughness around the
edges. If such discs are used, the player may not
work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or
the like to remove any roughness from the edge of
the disc.
Ball-point pen
Roughness
• Never stick labels on the surface of the disc or mark
the surface with a pencil or pen.
• Never play a disc with any cellophane tape or other
glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to play
such a disc, you may not be able to get it back out
of the DVD player or it may damage the DVD player.
• Do not use discs that have large scratches, are
misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of such discs may
cause misoperation or damage.
• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down
on the center of the case and lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the edges.
• Do not use commercially available disc protection
sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These
may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the
internal mechanism.
Storage
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat
source.
• Do not expose discs to excess humidity or dust.
• Do not expose discs to direct heat from heaters.
Cleaning
• To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth
and wipe in a straight line from the center of the disc
to the circumference.
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially
available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to
clean discs.
• After using special disc cleaner, let the disc dry off
well before playing it.
On Discs
• Exercise a good precaution when loading a disc. The
operation panel will close automatically when leaving
it open for a while.
• Never turn off the power and remove the unit from
the car with a disc loaded.
CAUTION
For your safety, the driver should not
insert or eject a disc, opening the
operation panel while driving.
