7. Do not let lit cigarettes or other hot objects
touch the set. Doing so may damage or
deform the cabinet.
8. Do not let the set become hot. If the
temperature in the car is high or if the set
has been exposed to direct sunlight and is
hot, lower the temperature before using it.
(The LCD panel will work properly within a
temperature range of 0°C to 40°C.)
9. In extremely cold temperatures, the
movement of the picture may be slow and
the picture may be dark, but this is not a
malfunction. The set will work normally once
the temperature increases.

crystal panel are normal for liquid crystal
products.
