Before Use

Precautions

#WARNINGS

ÑÑTo prevent injury or fire, take the following precautions:

•To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any metallic objects (such as coins or metallic tools) inside the unit.

•Do not watch or fix your eyes on the unit’s display when you are driving for any extended period.

•If you experience problems during installation, consult your JVC dealer.

ÑÑPrecautions on using this unit

•When you purchase optional accessories, check with your JVC dealer to make sure that they work with your model and in your area.

•You can select a language to display menus, audio file tags, etc. See User Interface Setup (P.53).

•The Radio Data System or Radio Broadcast Data System feature won’t work in areas where the service is not supported by any broadcasting station.

ÑÑCleaning the unit

•If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it with a dry soft cloth such as a silicon cloth. If the faceplate is stained badly, wipe it with a cloth moistened with neutral cleaner, then wipe it again with a clean soft dry cloth.

NOTE

•Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit may damage its mechanical parts. Wiping the faceplate with a hard cloth or using a volatile

liquid such as thinner or alcohol may scratch the surface or erase the screened print.

ÑÑAcquiring GPS signal

The first time you turn on this unit, you must wait while the system acquires satellite signals for the first time. This process could take up to several minutes. Make sure your vehicle

is outdoors in an open area away from tall buildings and trees for fastest acquisition.

After the system acquires satellites for the first time, it will acquire satellites quickly each time thereafter.

ÑÑAbout GLONASS

This unit uses Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) in addition to GPS.

ÑÑProtecting the monitor

•To protect the monitor from damage, do not operate the monitor using a ball point pen or similar tool with a sharp tip.

Combining GPS and GLONASS can refine positioning accuracy than using GPS only.

ÑÑCaution for Smartphone Users

Simultaneously running multiple applications on your smartphone while screen sharing places heavy demand on the microprocessor of the phone, potentially affecting communication and performance.

For best results while pairing with your JVC receiver, please be sure to close any unused applications.
