• Do not push the LCD screen with much force

as this may scratch it.

• Never touch the LCD screen with anything

besides your finger when operating the Touch
Panel functions. The LCD screen can scratch
easily. (The stylus is supplied for special cali-
brations. Do not use the stylus for normal oper-
ation.)

• Be careful not to place anything between the

LCD panel and the main body when the LCD
panel is closing. If an object gets between the
LCD panel and main body, the LCD panel may
stop working.

About liquid crystal display

(LCD) screen

• If the LCD panel is near the vent of an air con-

ditioner when it is opened, make sure that air
from the air conditioner is not blowing on it.
Heat from the heater may break the LCD
screen, and cool air from the cooler may cause
moisture to form inside the this product, result-
ing in possible damage. Also, if the LCD panel
is cooled down by the air conditioner, the LCD
screen may become dark, or the life span of
the small fluorescent tube used inside the LCD
panel may be shortened.

• Small black dots or white dots (bright dots)

may appear on the LCD screen. These are due
to the characteristics of the LCD screen and do
not indicate a problem with the navigation sys-
tem.

• At low temperatures, the LCD screen may be

dark for a while after the power is turned on.

• The LCD screen will be difficult to see if it is

exposed to direct sunlight.

• When using a portable phone, keep the

antenna of the portable phone away from the
navigation system to prevent disruption of the
video with disturbances such as spots or
colored stripes.

Keeping the LCD screen in good

condition

• When removing dust from the LCD screen or

cleaning the LCD screen, first turn the system
power off, then wipe with the soft dry cloth.

• When wiping the LCD screen, take care not to

scratch the surface. Do not use harsh or abra-
sive chemical cleaners.

About small fluorescent tube

• A small fluorescent tube is used inside the dis-

play to illuminate the LCD screen.
— The fluorescent tube should last for approx-

imately 10 000 hours, depending on operat-
ing conditions. (Using the navigation
system at low temperatures reduces the
service life of the fluorescent tube.)

— When the fluorescent tube reaches the end

of its useful life, the LCD screen will be dark
and the image will no longer be projected. If
this happens, consult your dealer or the
nearest authorized PIONEER Service Sta-
tion.
