• 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.
To care for 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 keys 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.
On the volume setting
• Digital devices produce very little noise compared
with other sources. Lower the volume before playing
these digital sources to avoid damaging the speakers
by sudden increase of the output level.
About GPS
When you turn on this unit for the first time, you
must wait while the system acquires GPS signals
from satellites. This process could take up to
several minutes. Make sure your vehicle is outdoors
in an open area away from tall buildings and trees
for fastest acquisition. Once the system acquires
GPS signals, this unit will acquire them quickly each
time you turn on this unit.
