The driver should never watch video or television while driving. Displays and screens should never be used or installed where they can be seen by and possibly distract the driver. It is against the law in many places to have video or television screens used where they can be seen by the driver. Driving and watching video or television is an extremely dangerous thing to do.
The driver should not look at the screen while driving. Accidents may result if you are not paying attention to the forward direction.
DO NOT look at the monitor screen while reversing the vehicle. The rear monitor is merely to assist in confirming the locations of obstacles, and therefore there is a limit to the visual range that it provides. Be sure to visually check for safety while reversing the vehicle. Otherwise, you may hit a person or object in the blind spot of the camera, resulting in a serious accident.
Drive slowly while reversing the vehicle. The rear monitor uses a wide angle lens, and the actual distance is different than how it appears. If you reverse the vehicle at high speed, you may hit a person or object, resulting in a serious accident.
Do not put foreign objects in the loading slot of Memory Stick Duo or disc. Fires or shocks may result.
Do not disassemble or alter this equipment. Accidents, fires or shocks may result.

Avoid installing in places where it cannot be fastened securely or where there are strong vibrations. Also, if you installed the unit with double-sided tape, first wipe away dirt and wax from the installation area. Otherwise, the unit may come loose due to vibration while driving, causing problems for driving and resulting in traffic accidents or injuries.
Do not install in places with direct sunlight or where it will be hit directly by hot air from the heater. This may increase the temperature of the interior of this equipment, resulting in fires and malfunctions.
Chose the installation location carefully so that the unit is not installed so that it can contact pedestrians and injure them.
Do not install the television antenna in hard-to-install, unstable places, or on easily peeled surfaces that have been treated with fluorine resin or water repellent. Accidents may result if the antenna comes off while the can is traveling, falls or makes contact with pedestrians.
When installing a TV antenna on the trunk or similar location, be careful of the tip of the TV antenna when opening and closing the trunk. Otherwise, it could cause injury to eyes, etc.
Tighten the fasteners for the antenna securely so that it will not vibrate loose and injure a pedestrian or cause an accident.
Occasionally check the camera installation screws, and tighten any that are loose. If a screw falls out, it could come into contact with a pedestrian or cause an accident.
Be careful when driving into parking garages, under elevated structures, etc. when the television antenna extends above vehicle height. Accidents may result if the television antenna makes contact with the elevated structure, breaks off and falls or makes contact with pedestrians.
Be careful of the tip of the antenna when opening and closing the trunk if the television antenna is installed on the trunk. Eye damage or other injuries may result.
Do not block the fan, heat sink or vents of this unit. When fan, heat sink or vent is blocked, the interior overheats, and fires may result.
Carry out the wiring such that cords are not pinched by movable parts such as seat rails, and screw parts of the vehicle body. Accidents, fires and shocks may result from disconnection and electrical shorts.

About new discs
Rough Edges
Recorded surface
Ballpoint pen
Flakes
You may notice that some brand new discs are rough around the center hole or outside edge. Remove the rough edges with the side of a ballpoint pen, etc. Rough edges may prevent proper loading in the unit. Flakes from the rough edges may also stick to the recorded surface, interfere with playback, and/or damage the disc or equipment.
About rental discs
Do not use CD discs with attached cellophane tape, rental CD discs with glue protruding from labels or discs with the residue of peeled adhesives. Using discs with those conditions can prevent the player from proper operation and cause damege to the disc or equipment.
About specially shaped discs

CD stabilizer ring
Do not use accessories (stabilizers, protective seals, laser lens cleaners, etc.) sold for “improving sound performance” or “protecting CDs.” The changes in CD thickness or outside dimensions made by these accessories may cause problems in the player.
Do NOT attach any ring-shape protector (or other accessory) to your discs. Those protectors are commercially available and said to protect discs and to improve sound quality (and anti vibration effect), but they can do more harm than good during regular use. The most common problems are insert/eject related problems and “No playback” problems due to the protector ring coming off in the disc mechanism.

About TV (U.S.A./CANADA/KOREA/TAIWAN only)

When the loss of power is lost due to vehicle battery replacement, replacing fuses, etc., all preset channels will be erased.
It may be difficult for the TV to maintain optimal reception due to variation in signal strength or interference from other objects. The main causes of interference are listed below.
• Visual or audio static may result when in close proximity to overhead train wires, high-tension wires, traffic signals, neon signs, etc.
• Depending on the signal, buildings and mountains may adversely affect reception.
• Visual or audio static may result when in close proximity to radio broadcasting or ham radio antennas.
• Signal reception will become extremely weak when driving through a tunnel.
• Signal reception will become weak when traveling at a great distance from the broadcasting station.
• In some areas, visual or audio static may result when in close proximity to TV or radio towers. This is due to the influence of electro-magnetic waves outside of the reception range.

Touch the preferred preset switch until you hear a beep.
ASM may not automatically receive stations if radio waves in the surrounding area are weak.
A frequency saved with the tuning switch may not match the frequency saved with ASM even though the signal is received from the same station.
Due to conditions for receiving radio waves, saved stations may differ even when the ASM switch is operated repeatedly in the same location.
Up to six stations with good signal reception are automatically saved in order of frequency (low to high).
When less than six stations capable of reception are found, nothing is saved for the remaining preset switches.

About MP3/WMAs

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III) is a standard format for audio compression technology. By using MP3 a file can be compressed to one-tenth the size of the original. WMA (Windows Media be compressed to a size smaller than MP3 files. This unit has limitations on MP3/WMA file standards and recorded media and formats that can be used.
Supported standards : MPEG1 Audio Layer III
Supported sampling frequencies: 44.1, 48 (kHz)
Supported bit rates : 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, 320 (kbps)

ID3/WMA tags
MP3/WMA files have an “ID3/WMA Tag” that allows input of information so that data such as song title and artist can be saved. This unit supports ID3v. 1.0, 1.1 and WMA tags.
I
Media
Media capable of playing MP3 include CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Compared to CD-ROM media commonly used for music discs, CD-R discs are fragile in high temperature/high humidity environments and sections of the CD-R may become incapable of playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause skipping.
Sections of a CD-R may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of time.
It is also recommended that CD-R discs be kept in a light-blocking case because the discs are vulnerable to ultra-violet light.
