Cautions

At the time of operation or installation

Caution for replacing the bulb of the dome light

Ask a qualiﬁ ed specialist to do this job. While you are replacing a bulb, be absolutely sure to keep the dome light switch at OFF. Otherwise, you may burn yourself. The bulb is very hot to the touch while it is lighted and immediately after it has gone off.

Protect Disc and SD memory Card

≥ When you leave the car, be sure to eject the

disc/SD memory card from this unit and bring it out.

When not Using the Product

≥ Lock the monitor in the fully closed position. ≥ If the display unit cannot be locked, be absolutely

sure to consult your dealer and remedy the situation.

Dimmer Sensor

≥ This unit automatically adjusts the screen

brightness in accordance with the brightness of its surroundings. However, the dimmer sensor may not function properly if it is exposed directly to sunlight or other strong sources of light.

When Listening with IR Wireless Headphones

≥ Even if your headphones are the open-air type

designed to let you hear outside sounds, do not turn up the volume so high that you can not hear what is around you.

≥ Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing

comfort level adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds normal can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

• Start your volume control at a low setting.

• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

≥ Once you have established a comfortable sound

level, set the dial and leave it there.

≥ Do not attempt to adjust the size while wearing

headphones. (You may ﬁ nd that your hair is pulled as it becomes entwined with the headphones.)

≥ There may be breaks in the sound or noise may

be heard if the headphones are used at a distance from this unit (display) or if obstructions block the infrared rays. These problems are caused by characteristics which are inherent in infrared rays, and thus are not indicative of any malfunctioning.

≥ Make sure that the infrared sensor window is not

covered by your hands or hair.

≥ Since these headphones use infrared rays for

operation, avoid using them in direct sunlight.

≥ When playing DVD video recordings and listening

to their sound through IR wireless headphones, the sound may be heard at a low level even after the volume of the IR wireless headphones has been turned up. In a case like this, stop playing the disc, and then change the DRC (Dynamic Range Compression) setting among the DVD video settings (page 82) to “Minimum” or “Standard”. However, depending on a disc’ s format and content (music DVD, etc.), you may feel that the sound is not being reproduced properly. If this is the case, keep the DRC setting at OFF.

≥ When listening to sound through headphones,

the volume level is a little lower compared with listening to sound which is delivered from speakers through an external device.

Find the model number and serial number on either the back or bottom of the unit. Please record them in the space below and retain this booklet as a permanent record of your purchase to help with identiﬁ cation in case of theft.

Exemption from Liability

≥ The manufacturer will not be liable in any way for

any incidental damages (such as loss of business income or changes or loss of memory data) which may result from the use of or failure to use this product.

≥ The terms and conditions of the warranty which

accompanies the product do not apply when the product is operated in a vehicle which is used for business purposes (such as a bus, taxi cab or commercial vehicle).

≥ No guarantees can be made for the numerical

values which have been set in the product when those values have been changed as a result of misuse of the product by the user or any third party or of the effects of static or electrical noise or of malfunctioning or repairs.

≥ The manufacturer will not be liable in any way for

the loss, destruction or erasure of SD card data which is a result of improper handling.

Liquid Crystal Panel

≥ Storage temperature range: `4 °F to 176 °F (`20 °C to 80 °C) When the liquid crystal panel reaches high

temperatures or low temperatures, chemical changes occur within the liquid crystal panel which may cause malfunctions.

≥ 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 synchronization or the image quality may decline in such environments. Note that this

is not a malfunction or problem. Usage temperature range: 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C) ≥

There may be red spots, blue spots and green

spots on the panel surface. This is a characteristic

of liquid crystal panels and is not a problem. 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.

≥ In order to protect the liquid crystal panel, keep it

out of direct sunlight while the unit is not in use. ≥ Sudden changes in the temperature inside the car

such as those which occur immediately after the

car’s air conditioner or heater has been turned on

may cause the inside of the liquid crystal panel

to cloud over due to water vapor or it may cause

condensation (droplets of water) to form and, as

a result, the panel may not work properly. Do not

use the unit while these symptoms are in evidence

but leave the unit standing for about an hour, and

then resume or start use.
