immediately.
¡Should the liquid get into the eyes or onto the skin, wash out
with a large amount of water and see a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Pull out
the plug
23 24
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (3)
For safety, adhere the stand base onto a surface that would enable secure anchoring. Depending on the dashboard material (PP: polypropylene or other), the double-surface adhesive tape alone may not be strong enough to affix the unit. Use the tapping screws included with the unit (4 screws) to securely anchor it.
* For such a case, holes need to be made into the dashboard. Proceed with
caution. (*In case of a prominent curved surface, the adhesive area is reduced resulting in unsteady mounting. The unit may not be mountable onto such a surface.)
For vehicles equipped with airbags (SRS Dual Airbag, SRS Side Airbag, SRS Curtain Airbag, etc.), do not under any circumstance install the unit in a way that obstructs the airbag cover or would hinder its proper operation. Do not wire the antenna cord in such an area.
In the event the airbag is to be deployed, it may not function correctly. (*Decide on the unit’s mounting position after thoughtful consideration for safety and consultation with the place of purchase.)
If the surface on which the unit is to be adhered is not plastic (leather, wood, upholstery, etc.), the surface finish may become damaged rendering installation using adhesives impossible.
Should the stand base adhesive get torn off the dashboard, slowly and carefully peel it off the surface.
Because strong adhesive tape is used, peeling off with excessive force may damage the dashboard surface finish.
CAUTION
CAUTIONARY ITEMS FOR PROPER USAGE (1)
¡The adhesive strength of the double-surface tape decreases at
low temperatures (20°C (68°F) or less). Adhere the unit onto the dashboard after having increased the temperature using the vehicle heater.
¡Adhere the unit after having cleaned off any dirt from the
mounting surface using the cleaning solution included with the unit and let dry.
¡Once the double-surface adhesive tape is peeled off, it
cannot be re-adhered.
¡After installation, periodically check if the tape is still holding well.
¡Tightly fasten the screws affixing each part of the stand.
¡Do not mount the portable DVD navigation unit immediately
after having adhered the stand base to the mounting surface. Leave the stand base as is without the unit mounted for at least 24 hours after adhering it to the dashboard.
¡Apply pressure onto the mounting surface by pressing on the
stand base after having adhered it to the dashboard.
¡The cushion included with the unit is used to keep the unit from
vibrating. Install it as per the instructions in the manual.
WHEN INSTALLING THE UNIT
It’s cold!
Use the cleaner!
You only get one chance to stick it on!
Check the
adhesion
quality!
Fasten the screws tightly
Let it sit for at
least 24 hours
Apply lots of pressure
Use the cushion
¡The unit may not function properly in extreme cold or extreme hot
conditions. Bring the ambient temperature back to normal to ensure proper operation.
¡Do not leave the unit in areas of high temperatures (direct sunlight or in a
vehicle under the hot sun) or low temperatures (outdoors in cold weather). Damage and deformation may result.
¡When the temperature exceeds 50°C (122°F), the unit automatically cuts
off the power supply to prevent damage to the liquid crystal display. After having returned to the standard usage temperature range (0°C (32°F) to 50°C (122°F) when in NAVI/VIDEO mode), turn on the power supply and normal operation will be possible.

CAUTIONARY ITEMS FOR PROPER USAGE (2)
During raining days, when the humidity level is high or immediately after having turned on the heater in cold temperatures, condensation (water drops) may form on the optical lens inside the unit. Using the unit in this condition may result in laser malfunction rendering normal operation impossible. Results may depend on the ambient environmental conditions, however, the condensation will evaporate and normal operation will be possible after removing the disc and leaving the unit unused for roughly 1 hour.
ABOUT CONDENSATION
Take out the disc and wait about 1 hour, ok?
Exposing the unit to vibrations may result in the following conditions:
¡DVD video/CD/JPEG imaging: Sound and image disturbance, however, both return to
normal when vibrations cease.
¡Map disc: Rarely affected by vibrations, however, on rare occasions, symptoms such
as the map disappearing from the screen may occur. Operation returns to normal when vibrations cease.
ABOUT VIBRATIONS
Everything will be back to normal when vibrations stop!
¡Direct sunlight will cause the display to blacken
due to reflection of the sunrays. Avoid direct sunlight.
¡The display is best viewed from directly in front of
the unit. Watch the screen within a 45° angle vertically and a 90° angle laterally from the unit.
¡Red and blue points of light may appear in the display. This is normal for a liquid
crystal display and does not mean the display is damaged.
¡The display uses a small fluorescent tube as a backlight for liquid crystals. If the
screen goes black and does not light up, consult the place of purchase.
ABOUT THE DISPLAY
45° vertically
90° laterally
Because the most detailed map reduction scales provided by the map disc vary depending on the region, when moving the map screen to a region of varying reduction scale, the screen may not show a map. Continue moving the map to return the normal driving map screen and the reduction scale will change to the most detailed map for the region presently displayed.
ABOUT THE DETAILED MAP SCREEN DISPLAY
Using the unit when the vehicle engine is turned off may lead to weakening of the battery. Do not use the unit for an extended period with the engine turned off.
ABOUT USING THE UNIT WITH THE VEHICLE ENGINE TURNED OFF
(WHEN THE UNIT POWER SOURCE IS THE VEHICLE BATTERY)
¡Dust easily adheres to the screen necessitating
periodical cleaning. When cleaning, cut off the power supply and wipe the screen with a soft cloth. Do not use a wet cloth and do not rub the screen with a hard object or hit the screen.

WHAT IS A NAVIGATION SYSTEM (2) ABOUT THE GPS EXTERIOR ANTENNA

¡Refer to the installation manual for how to install the antenna onto your vehicle.
¡After installation, make sure to follow the instructions below:
Do not apply paint or auto wax to the GPS exterior antenna. This may lead to reduced reception sensitivity and a loss of signal reception from the GPS satellite.
Do not strike the antenna with an excessively strong spray of water when cleaning your vehicle. Also, remove the antenna from your vehicle before entering a carwash chamber.
The reception sensitivity is diminished by the accumulation of snow on the antenna. Remove the snow.
The GPS exterior antenna is equipped with a powerful magnet. Do not bring magnetic cards, cassette tapes or watches in close proximity to the antenna. (This may damage the antenna and render it useless.)
About present location errors
The mark denoting your vehicle’s present location and heading may not be displayed accurately under the conditions mentioned below. The unit is not damaged. Continue driving (about 30 minutes at 20 mph) and the display will return to normal.
¡Running in reverse
¡Under a continuous elevation
¡In a tunnel exceeding 1 mile in length
¡When meandering in curves
¡When the vehicle’s speed changes abruptly (after exiting a toll booth and accelerating
towards a tunnel)
¡On a loop bridge
¡When using the unit for the first time
¡After debarking a ferry
¡After driving with the DVD screen
¡After driving with the VIDEO screen
¡During tire replacement
¡During tire chain installation
¡When taking the unit into a different vehicle

Tab
After having purchased the unit, the unit will display the present location as in the San Francisco area. Signals from the GPS satellite cannot be received from inside a building. If the present display does not change from the San Francisco area map, this means that the unit is not receiving any signals from the GPS satellite. Take the antenna out to a location where signals are not obstructed and proceed with reception. zSee p.183, “Receiving signals from the GPS satellite”.

In the event of obstructions blocking GPS satellite signals from reaching the GPS exterior antenna, the signals will be difficult to receive rendering the measurement of the present location impossible. Conditions for proper present location measurement include driving in areas where there are no obstructions blocking signal reception. Areas such as the following are not suitable for GPS satellite signal reception, move away from them for proper positioning.
¡In a tunnel ¡Surrounded by tall
buildings
¡Under an elevated
highway
Tunnel
¡Within a building
* The following are reasons why the GPS satellite reception frequency fluctuates even at the same
location.
¡Because the position of the GPS satellite changes with time due to its orbit around the earth. ¡Because signal reception may be affected by other signals whose frequencies are close to those
transmitted by the GPS satellite.
RECEIVING SIGNALS FROM THE GPS SATELLITE
¡When riding on public transportation
If the unit does not receive signals from the GPS satellite using the GPS exterior antenna included with the unit, present location measurement will be impossible. To display the actual present location, connect the GPS exterior antenna to the unit and proceed with the reception of signals from the GPS satellite.
Proceed with GPS satellite signal reception as shown below. When the unit receives signals it can use to measure the present location, the GPS reception display ( ) located in the top right corner of the present location display screen lights up yellow and the actual present location is displayed.
* When the GPS reception display ( ) is gray, the present location measured previously is displayed.
After having purchased the unit, the San Francisco area will be shown if the unit hasn’t had a chance to measure the present location yet. GPS signal reception is impossible from inside a building. To measure the present location properly, take the GPS exterior antenna outside and proceed with signal reception.
Connect the included GPS exterior antenna to the unit. Mount it horizontally on the exterior chassis of the vehicle or in your vehicle (dashboard) on a flat surface where any part of your vehicle will not obstruct signal reception.
* – Signals may not be properly received if installing within the vehicle. Try your best to install it on the
exterior of your vehicle. (The included GPS antenna mounting plate is required if installing within your vehicle.)
– If installing within your vehicle, we recommend your separate the unit and the GPS exterior antenna
by at least 10 inches so as to prevent them from interfering.
INSTALLATION EXAMPLE
Connect the included GPS exterior antenna to the unit and place it outside in an area where signals will not be obstructed.
* Within buildings or public transportation, the roof may
obstruct the proper reception of GPS satellite signals rendering the measurement of the present location impossible.
* To prevent interference between the navigation unit and
the GPS exterior antenna, we recommend that you install them at least 10 inches apart.

ELSEWHERE THAN YOUR VEHICLE
IF USING THE UNIT INSTALLED

AREAS WHERE PRESENT LOCATION MEASUREMENT IS IMPOSSIBLE
¡Within a dense cluster
of trees
Make sure to conduct signal reception in a wide open area.
When the unit receives signals it can use to measure the present location, the GPS reception display ( ) located in the top right corner of the present location display screen lights up yellow and the actual present location is displayed.
After having purchased the unit and using it for the first time or using it again after an extended period of inactivity, it may take the unit 15 to 20 minutes before being able to display the actual present location. (This is because the satellite tracking data is
sent by the GPS satellite once every 12.5 minutes significantly delaying the time it takes for data to be received. Do not move your position until the present location is displayed.) Normally, the position screen should appear a few minutes after having turned the power ON.

CAUTIONARY ITEMS DURING ROUTE GUIDANCE (1)
There may be instances when the following routes are displayed.
¡Even if making a route search, there
may be a route displayed starting from the front or the back of the vehicle mark.
¡Even if having set a destination, there
may be a route displayed from the front or the back of the vehicle mark.
¡Even if making a route search, the
display may show a route starting from another road. For such a case, the vehicle mark may not correspond with the present location. Re-effectuate the route search after the vehicle mark has returned to the correct road.
¡Setting the destination and waypoints
with points retrieved from already registered points or guidance data may lead to the display of routes with wide detours. If correcting such routes, make sure to set them accurately keeping in mind the proper heading. Pay special attention to roads whose two traffic directions are shown as separate roads such as in the case of interchanges and service areas.
¡Even if having set a destination
reachable completely on land with no check mark ( ) indicated next to
in , the unit may set a route that contains a ferry crossing. If wanting to correct the route, set a waypoint along a land bound route and re-effectuate the route search.
¡For the ferry seaway crossings, it is
possible to set a main route that excludes passenger only or bicycles only ferries, however, these are meant as a guide to be used only after verifying carefully the approximate time of arrival as well as the trip conditions.
Preferred RouteUse Ferries
The route displayed is the reference route. This may not be the shortest route to the destination.
Whether it’s because the roads have been modified or because the map DVD-ROM is outdated, the shape of the roads as well as the traffic conditions may vary from the actual conditions. Make sure to drive your vehicle as per the actual traffic conditions.
During a route search, the map does not shift in accordance with the running of your vehicle.
After a route search is complete, it may take a moment until the recommended route is displayed.
There may be instances when the route does not disappear from the screen when arriving at your destination or at waypoints. Either search for a new route or turn off the engine to clear the route from the screen.
When re-effectuating a route search, the unit will not search for a route to return to waypoints that have been determined as already passed along the route.
When the map is shifted while the route is displayed, it may take a moment for the route to be redisplayed.
If having made a route search prioritizing distance, the unit may lead you through narrow roads or on toll roads.
Even if having made a route search prioritizing distance, the unit will prioritize safe, easy to drive on local roads near the departure and destination points that may not represent the shortest distance.
Set the position accurately in areas where roads are in close proximity to each other. Especially in areas where the two directions of traffic are displayed as separate roads, make sure the heading is correct and set your destination and waypoints on roads.
In the event waypoint(s) are set, the unit searches for routes between them separately which may result in the following:
¡If a route search is impossible for any
of the points, the entire route is not displayed.
¡The route may be broken near the
waypoints.
¡A U-turn route may be displayed near
waypoints.
A route search may be impossible in the following circumstances:
¡The present location and the
destination are too far from each other. In such a case, reinitiate a route search after having set closer to the destination.
¡Actual traffic conditions render access
to the destination or waypoint impossible.
¡There are only routes representing
extreme detours.
¡Other instances where conditions
render a route search impossible.
