passengers are also prohibited from watching the display.

Liquid Crystal Panel
• Any harsh impacts may damage the liquid crystal panel.
• Usage temperature range: 32 0 F to 104 0 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 may decline in such environments. Note that this is
not a malfunction or problem.
• Sudden changes in the temperature inside the vehicle such
as those which occur immediately after the vehicle’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 evident.
Instead, leave the unit standing for about an hour, and
then resume or start use.
• If the screen of this unit is dirty, wipe the dirt off with a
cloth moistened with a mild cleaner. Note: Applying spray
cleaner directly to the unit may affect its mechanical parts
or cause an electrical shock. Wiping the screen with an
abrasive cloth or using a volatile liquid such as thinner or
alcohol may scratch or damage the surface of the screen.
