How to view the Display
Touch button operation
The display unit is equipped with tactile feedback
(PULSETOUCH
TM ).
What is the tactile feedback (PULSETOUCH TM ) ?
When you touch a button graphic in the display, you will
feel a mild vibration and click on the display panel surface.
This feedback enables you to easily identify action areas in
the display.
• Be sure to touch the button lightly with the pad of your finger on
the display to protect the display.
• If you touch a button and there is no reaction, remove your finger
from the display once, and try again.
About the expression of touch buttons in this Owner's
Manual
• Display buttons in this manual are shown in bold with
[ ] (e.g. [SRC]).
• This Owner’s Manual explains mainly the function of
touch buttons, when a touch button and a unit button
have the same function.
Turning Power On or Off
Some of this unit's functions cannot be performed while the vehicle is
in motion. Be sure to stop your vehicle in a safe location and apply
the parking brake, before attempting these operations.
1
Press SOURCE/POWER to turn on the unit.
• The unit can be turned on by pressing any button on the unit except
OPEN and c (Eject).
2
Press and hold SOURCE/POWER for at least 2
seconds to turn off the unit.
• The IVA-D300 draws minimal current even when its power switch
is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the IVA-D300
is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle's
battery, the battery may be discharged. If this lead is unswitched, it
must be disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be
left unused for an extended period of time.
An SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw) switch (sold separately) can
be added to simplify this procedure. Then, you can simply place it
in the OFF position when you leave the vehicle. Turn the SPST
switch back ON before using the IVA-D300. For connecting the
SPST switch, refer to the “Connection Diagram of SPST switch”
(page 69).
• Some operation of the unit cannot be performed while the vehicle is
in motion. In this case, be sure to first stop your vehicle and apply
the parking brake, then perform the operation.
Opening/Closing the Monitor
1
Press OPEN.
The unit beeps 3 times and opens the monitor
automatically.
2
Press and hold OPEN (CLOSE) for at least 2
seconds.
The unit beeps 3 times and closes the monitor
automatically.
• Opening/closing the monitor should never be performed manually.
It may cause a malfunction.
• The monitor's angle is set to 90 degrees at the factory. Depending
on the car, the monitor may hit the dashboard when opened. The
monitor's angle can be adjusted and stored in memory so that the
monitor will not hit the dashboard when opening. For adjusting the
monitor, refer to "Adjusting the monitor Angle" on page 26.
Even when the vehicle's battery power is removed, the adjusted
monitor angle remains stored in memory.
• The IVA-D300 is a precision device. With gentle handling, its
unique capabilities can be enjoyed for a long time.
• If the monitor touches anything while it is being opened (or
closed), the monitor will stop opening (or closing) immediately.
Should this occur, remove the obstacle and press and hold OPEN
for at least 2 seconds again to lower the monitor.
• When the movable monitor is opened, do not place any object on
the monitor and be careful not to bump or apply any pressure to the
monitor while it is open. This can cause damage to the mechanism.
• In low ambient temperature conditions, the display may be dark for
a short period of time immediately after the power is turned on.
Once the LCD has warmed up, the display returns to normal.
• For your safety, some operation of the unit cannot be performed
while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, first stop the vehicle and
engage the parking brake, then perform the operation.
