The condensation will dis­appear 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.

second after the DCP has been reattached.
CAUTION
The DCP can easily be damaged by shocks.
After removing it, be careful not to drop it or subject it to strong shocks.
If the Operation Panel is kept open, the DCP
may drop due to vibration of the car. This results in damage to the DCP. So close the Operation Panel or remove the DCP to store into the case.
The connector connecting the main unit and
the DCP is an extremely important part. Be careful not to damage it by pressing on it with fingernails, screwdrivers, etc.
Note:
If the DCP is dirty, wipe off the dirt with a soft, dry
cloth only.
LCD panel/Generalities
For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.
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 oper­ate properly in a temperature range of 0 to 60°C.
Dont 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.
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 in­spected at your store of purchase.
Do not insert objects or poke in the space be­tween 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 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 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 ob­jects.
