WARNING

For your safety, the driver should not watch the DVD video/movie data or operate the controls while driving. Please note that watching and operating the DVD video/movie data 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.

a long period of time. The liquid crystal panel will operate properly in a temperature range of 0 to 60°C.

• Do not 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 and 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 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 place anything on the display when the panel is tilted.

• The remote control unit 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.
