• If electrical equipment that generates a strong
electrical noise is used near this unit, the screen
may be disturbed and noise may be generated. In
this case, keep away such electrical equipment or
refrain from using it.
• 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 (DVD/CD) or the
optical parts of the player and proper playback may
not be possible. If moisture forms on the disc
(DVD/CD), 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.
• Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause
severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.
• TV broadcast reception (when the optional TV
tuner is connected)
When receiving the TV broadcast, the strength of
the signals changes since the car is moving, so in
some cases it may not be possible to receive clear
pictures.
• TV signals are strongly linear, so reception is
affected by buildings, mountains and other
obstacles.
• External factors such as electric train lines, a
high voltage lines, and signal devices may
disturb the picture or cause noise.
* If the reception is poor, switch to a station with
good reception.
