The unit can be turned on by pressing any other buttons except the OPEN/CLOSE and ANGLE 7 8 buttons.

The volume level gradually increases to the previous level you were listening to before the unit was turned off. Press and hold the PWR (Power) button for at least 2 seconds to turn off the unit.

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

The CVA-1003R draws minimal current even when its power switch is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the CVA-1003R 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 CVA-1003R. For connecting the SPST switch, refer to "Connection Diagram of SPST Switch" on page 49.

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.
