Fuse Replacement

When replacing the fuse(s), the replacement must be of the same amperage as shown on the fuse holder. If the fuse(s) blows more than once, carefully check all electrical connections for shorted circuitry. Also have your vehicle’s voltage regulator checked.

Servicing the Unit

If you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself. Return it to your ALPINE dealer or the nearest ALPINE Service Station for servicing.

Installation Location

Make sure the PMD-B100 will not be exposed to:

• Direct sun and heat • Excessive dust

• High humidity

• Excessive vibrations

Characteristics of LCD Panel

After turning the system off, a slight ghost of the image will remain temporarily. This is an effect peculiar to LCD technology and is normal.

Under cold temperature conditions, the screen may lose contrast temporarily. After a short warm- up period, it will return to normal.

The LCD panel is manufactured using an extremely high precision manufacturing technology. Its effec- tive pixel ratio is over 99.99%. This means that 0.01% of the pixels could be either always ON or OFF.

Using Headphones

If ACC or the monitor's power source is turned off, a loud noise may be produced through the headphone jack. Be sure to remove the headphones from your ears before you turn the monitor off.
