2. PRECAUTIONS
For your safety, the driver should not watch theTV 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 alevel at which external sounds
can be heard.
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
(COl
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 asoft 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.
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which
cause severe vibration may cause the sound
to skip.
3. This unit uses aprecision mechanism. Even
in the event that trouble arises, never open
the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate
the rotating parts.
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, ahigh voltage lines, and signal de-
vices may disturb the picture or cause
noise.
"
If the reception is poor, switch to astation with
good reception.
5. This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for aClass Bdigital de-
vice, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reason-
able protection against harmful interference
in aresidential installation.This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio fre-
quency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communi-
cations. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur
in aparticular in-
stallation. If this equipment does cause harm-
ful interference to radio
or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to consult the dealer or an experienced radiol
TV technician for help.

cause malfunctioning of the touchkeys.
•
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 atemperature range of 0to
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 aproblem 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.
Cleaning
•Cleaning the cabinet
Use asoft, dry cloth and gently wipe off the
dirt. For tough dirt, apply some neutral deter-
gent diluted
in water to asoft cloth, wipe off
the dirt gently, then wipe again with adry
cloth.
•Cleaning the LCD panel
The LCD panel tends to collect dust, so wipe
it off occasionally with asoft cloth. The sur-
face 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 rub-
ber or plastic products in contact with the
cabinet for long periods of time may cause
stains.
