The marking of products using lasers
The label is attached to the chassis/case and says
that the component uses laser beams that have
been classified as Class 1. It means that the unit is
utilizing laser beams that are of a weaker class. There
is no danger of hazardous radiation outside the unit.
VCautions on the monitor:
• The monitor built into this unit has been
produced with high precision, but it may have
some ineffective dots. This is inevitable and is not
considered defective.
• Do not expose the monitor to direct sunlight.
• Do not operate the touch panel using a ball-point
pen or similar tool with a sharp tip.
Touch the buttons on the touch panel with your
finger directly (if you are wearing a glove, take it
off).
• When the temperature is very cold or very hot...
– Chemical changes occur inside, causing
malfunction.
– Pictures may not appear clearly or may move
slowly. Pictures may not be synchronized with
the sound or picture quality may decline in such
environments.
For safety...
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this
will make driving dangerous by blocking outside
sounds, and may cause hearing loss.
• Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.
Temperature inside the car...
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or
cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car
becomes normal before operating the unit.
RHow to reset your unit
