01 Precautions

When you attempt to watch a DVD, Video CD or TV while driving, the warning VIDEO VIEW- ING IS NOT AVAILABLE WHILE DRIVING will appear on the front display.

To watch a DVD, Video CD or TV on the front display, park your vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking brake.

Parking brake interlock

Certain functions (DVD/TV viewing and certain touch panel keys) offered by this unit could be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while driv- ing. To prevent such functions from being used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an interlock system that senses when the parking brake is set. If you attempt to use the functions described above while driving, they will be- come disabled until you stop the vehicle in a safe place, and (1) apply the parking brake, (2) release the parking brake, and then (3) apply the parking brake again. Please keep the brake pedal pushed down before releasing the parking brake.

To avoid battery exhaustion

Be sure to run the vehicle engine while using this unit. Using this unit without running the engine can result in battery drainage.

!When no power is supplied to this unit be- cause of a replacement of the vehicle bat- tery or for some similar reason, the microcomputer of this unit is returned to its initial condition except audio settings. Although audio adjustment information is stored in this unit for several hours, we re- commend that you transcribe the data.
