2. PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

For your safety, the driver should not watch the TV 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 a level 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 (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.

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, a high voltage lines, and signal devices may disturb the picture or cause noise.

∗ If the reception is poor, switch to a station

with good reception.

INFORMATION FOR USERS:.

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS PRODUCT NOT APPROVED BY THE MANUFACTURER WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

Liquid crystal panel/Generalities

Owner’s manual

For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.

• Be sure to store the liquid crystal panel inside the main unit when parking the car outdoors for long period of time. The liquid crystal panel will operate properly in a temperature range of 0 to 60˚C.

• Don’t 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 liquid crystal panel out and use it as a tray. Also, subjecting the liquid crystal 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 liquid crystal panel and the main unit when the panel is tilted.

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 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 liquid crystal panel are normal for LCD products.

• The liquid crystal panel may stop temporarily when it opens or closes, when the engine stops or when it is cold.

• The touchkeys on the display operate when slightly touched. Do not press the touchkey screen with much force.

• Do not push the case surrounding the touchkey panel with much force. This may cause malfunctioning of the touchkeys.

• 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.

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.

Precautions when creating an MP3 disc

● File extensions

to an MP3 file by using single byte letters. If you add a file extension other than specified or forget to add the file extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”, the file cannot be played. In addition, if you use upper case and lower case letters (capital and small letters) mixedly for file extensions, normal play may not be possible.

2. Files without MP3 data will not play.

VRX746VD 41

DVD Video Player Operations

● Logical format (File system)

1. When writing an MP3 file on a CD-R disc,

please select “ISO9660 level 1 or level 2

Owner’s manual

(without including expansion format)” as the writing software format. Normal playback may not be possible if the disc is recorded on another format.

2.

Entering more letters or numerals than specified may cause an incorrect display.

● Folder structure

1. A disc with a folder having more than 8 hierarchical levels will conflict with the ISO9660 and playback will be impossible.

● Number of files or folders

The maximum allowable number of folders is 255 (including root directory); the maximum allowable number of files is 512 (max. 255 per folder). This represents the maximum number of tracks that can be played back.

2. Tracks are played in the order that they were recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not always be played in the order displayed on the PC.)

• Some noise may occur depending on the

type of encoder software used while recording.

• In case of a track recorded at VBR

(variable bit rate), the display for the play time of the track may be slightly different from the actual play time. Also, the recommended value of VBR ranges from 64 kbps to 320 kbps.

• Depending on the damage conditions of a

file, it may occur that the file is not played and the next file is played instead. Also, if the damage is in a severe condition, play stops showing the “ERROR 3” display.
