Liquid Crystal Panel
•Any harsh impacts may damage the liquid crystal panel.

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.
