Cautions for the liquid crystal panel
• Do not leave the liquid crystal panel surface
facing upwards on top of the dashboard.
(storage temperature range: –20 °C to +80
°C (–4 °F to 176 °F) )
+80°C
–20°C
–20°C to +80°C
During the summer,
temperatures can
reach as high as
100 °C (212 °F).
When the liquid crystal panel reaches high
temperatures or low temperatures, chemical
changes occur within the liquid crystal panel
which may cause malfunctions.
• There are red spots, blue spots and green
spots on the panel surface. This is a
characteristic of liquid crystal panels and is
not a problem.
Spots
• Do not strongly impact the liquid crystal panel.
• When the temperature is very cold or very
hot, the image may not appear clearly or may
move slowly.
Also, movement of the image may seem to
be out of sync or the image quality may
decline in such environments. Note that this
is not a malfunction or problem.
(usage temperature range: 0 °C to +40 °C
(32 °F to 104 °F) )
ENGLISH
The liquid crystal panel is built with very high
precision technology and has at least 99.99%
effective image pixels. Be aware that on
0.01% of the panel there may be missing
pixels or constantly light pixels.

MAINTENANCE
To prevent damage to the system exterior
• Do not apply pesticides, benzine, thinner or other volatile substances to the unit.
The cabinet surface primarily consists of plastic materials.
