Notes on Use

Liquid Crystal Panel
Do not strongly impact the liquid crystal panel. Usage temperature range: 0 C to 40 C {32 F to 104 F} 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 is not malfunction or problem. 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 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 and hour, and then resume or start use.

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs, DVDRs/RWs
You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs discs recorded on CD/DVD recorders (CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface. CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible. The unit may not successfully playback a CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs that was made by the combination of writing software, a CD/DVD recorder (CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs drive) and a disc if they are incompatible with one another. This player does not play CD-R/RW, DVDRs/RWs discs if the session is not closed. Be sure to observe the handling instructions of CDR/RW, DVDRs/RWs discs.
