Clarion VMA7194, VMA5894 owner manual Introduction, Features, Precautions

1. INTRODUCTION

The Clarion 5.8-inch VMA5894 and 7-inch VMA7194 are high- performance video monitors designed specifically for the mobile environment. Intended for use with other Clarion multimedia products, they can also be integrated with many other products as part of a complete mobile video solution.

Features

Two video inputs support simultaneous connection to both dedicated video source units and optional audio/video compo- nents, such as camcorders or videogames.

•The infrared remote control receiver output allows integra- tion with select Clarion DVD and VHS source units.

•The monitors automatically switch to operate with either NTSC or PAL video signals (NTSC is the standard North American video format).

•The 16:9 aspect ratio screen allows DVD films to be viewed in their original aspect ratio for the best cinematic experi- ence.

Precautions

•Do not operate your monitor in ways other than those described in this manual.

•Do not play a multimedia system when the car’s engine is turned off. Doing so runs down the car’s battery.

•Do not disassemble or modify your monitor.

•Keep moisture away from the monitor. Water and humidity may damage internal circuitry.

•Do not let the monitor become overheated.

If the temperature in the vehicle is high or the monitor has been exposed to direct sunlight, cool the monitor (such as, by running the air conditioning) before you turn it on.

•Keep all liquids, including beverages and cleaning fluids away from the monitor. Liquids in the monitor can damage the electronics and result in electrical shock or fire. If the unit becomes wet, turn off all power and contact an autho- rized Clarion dealer to have the monitor inspected.

•Never press on the liquid crystal display (LCD) panel. You may damage it.

Failure to observe these precautions may damage your car, the monitor, or the video source, and may void the warranty.
