2. PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

For your safety, the driver must not operate the controls while driving.

Also, while driving, keep the volume to a level at which external sounds can be heard.

1. When the inside of the car is very cold and the player is used soon after switching on the heater, moisture may form on the disc or the optical parts of the player and proper playback may not be possible. If moisture forms on the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture forms on the optical parts of the player, do not use the player for about one hour. The condensation will disappear naturally allowing normal operation.
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in the event that trouble arises, never open the case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.

Front Panel / General

For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.

• Do not allow any liquids on the set from drinks, umbrellas, etc. as this may damage the internal circuitry.
• Do not disassemble or modify the set in any way. Doing so may result in damage.
• Do not let cigarettes burn the display. Doing so may damage or deform the display.
• If a problem should occur, have the set inspected at your store of purchase.
• The remote control unit may not work if the remote control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight.

Cleaning the body

Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe off any dirt.

For tough dirt, apply some neutral detergent diluted in water to a soft cloth, wipe off the dirt gently, then wipe again with a dry cloth.

Do not use benzene, thinner, car cleaner, etc., as these substances may damage the body or cause the paint to peel. Also, leaving rubber or plastic products in contact with the body for long periods of time may cause stains.

The control panel can be detached to prevent theft. When detaching the control panel, store it in the DCP (Detachable Control Panel) case to prevent scratches.

We recommend taking the DCP with you when leaving the car.

1. Press the [PWR] button (1 sec.) to turn off the power.
2. Deeply push in the [OPEN] button to unlock the flip-down panel.

If the flip-down panel does not open fully, gently open it with your hand.
3. Hold one side of the DCP. Push it slightly to the other side slightly, release one end, and then take off the DCP.

Re-attaching the DCP

1. Hold the DCP and ensure that the panel faces downwards. Set one side of the DCP into the DCP bracket. Press the other side of the DCP until it locks.
2. Turn the DCP up and press it until it clicks.

Storing the DCP in the DCP Case

Hold the DCP, in the orientation as shown in the figure below, and put it into the supplied DCP case. (Ensure the DCP is in the correct orientation.)

Note:

If the DCP is dirty, wipe off the dirt with a soft, dry cloth only.

CAUTION

• The DCP can easily be damaged by shocks. After removing it, be careful not to drop it or subject it to strong shocks.
• If the FLIP-DOWN PANEL is kept open, the DCP may drop due to vibration of the car. This could damage the DCP. So close the FLIP DOWN PANEL or remove the DCP and store it in the DCP case.
• The connector connecting the source unit and the DCP is an extremely important part. Be careful not to damage it by pressing on it with fingernails, screwdrivers, etc.

4. CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

Handling Discs

Handling

• New discs may have some roughness around the edges. If such discs are used, the player may not work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or the like to remove any roughness from the edge of the disc.

• Never stick labels on the surface of the disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.
• Never play a disc with any cellophane tape or other glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to play such a disc, you may not be able to get it back out of the player or it may damage the player.
• Do not use discs that have large scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of such discs may cause misoperation or damage.
• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
• Do not use commercially available disc protection sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the internal mechanism.

Storage

• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source.
• Do not expose discs to excess humidity or dust.
• Do not expose discs to direct heat from heaters.

Cleaning

• To remove fingerprints and dust, use a soft cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center of the disc to the circumference.
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to clean discs.
  After using special disc cleaner, let the disc dry completely before playing it.

On Discs

Exercise precaution when loading a disc. The operation panel will close automatically when left open for a while.
- Never turn off the power and remove the unit from the car with a disc loaded.

CAUTION

For your safety, the driver must not insert or eject discs nor open the operation panel while driving.
