To protect the LCD screen

!Do not allow direct sunlight to fall on the display when this unit is not being used. Extended exposure to direct sunlight can result in LCD screen malfunction due to the resulting high temperatures.

!When using a cellular phone, keep the an- tenna of the cellular phone away from the display to prevent disruption of the video by

the appearance of spots, colored stripes, etc.

For viewing LCD comfortably

Due to its construction, the view angle of the LCD screen is limited. The viewing angle (verti- cal and horizontal) can be increased, however, by using BRIGHT to adjust the black density of the video. When using for the first time, adjust the black density in accordance with the view- ing angle (vertical and horizontal) to adjust for clear viewing. DIMMER can also be used to adjust the brightness of the LCD screen itself to suit your personal preference.
