How to read this manual

[European Union only]

Cautions on the monitor:

• The monitor built in this unit has been produced
with high precision, but it may have some
ineffective dots. This is inevitable and is not
malfunction.

• Do not expose the monitor to direct sunlight.

• Do not operate the touch panel using a ball-point
pen or similar tool with the sharp tip.

Touch the buttons on the touch panel with your

finger directly (if you are wearing a glove, take it
off).

• When the temperature is very cold or very hot...

– Chemical changes occur inside, causing

malfunction.

– Pictures may not appear clearly or may move

slowly. Pictures may not be synchronized with
the sound or picture quality may decline in such
environments.

• < > is used to indicate the variable screens/
menus/operations/settings that appear on the
touch panel.

• [ ] is used to indicate the buttons on the touch
panel.

• ( page number) is used to indicate the
reference page number of the related topics/
operations/settings.

• Operation index: To locate easily the desired

• Indication language: English indications
are used for the purpose of explanation. You
can select the indication language from the
<AV Menu>. ( 13)

For safety...

• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will
block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.

• Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.

Temperature inside the car...

If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or cold
weather, wait until the temperature in the car becomes
normal before operating the unit.

Menu settings

• If you change the <Amplifier Gain> setting from
<High> to <Low> while the volume level is set
higher than “30,” the unit automatically changes the
volume level to “VOL 30.”

• After you change any of <Menu Language/Audio
Language/Subtitle> settings, turn off then on the
power, and re-insert the disc (or insert another disc)
so that your setting takes effect.

• When you select <16:9> for a picture whose aspect
ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly changes due to the
process for converting the picture width.

• Even if <4:3PS> is selected, the screen size may
become <4:3LB> for some discs.
