Condition memory

This function memorizes selections made for
audio language, subtitle language, angle
number, and aspect ratio during disc playback
for up to 30 discs. The final settings during play-
back of a disc are memorized without requiring
special operations. The next time a disc is played,
the previous settings are automatically applied.
❒ With some discs, audio language and subtitle
language are automatically specified, in
which case condition memory does not func-
tion.
❒ When the number of discs exceeds 30, set-
tings for the new disc replace those for the
oldest disc.

DVD drive and care

• Use only normal, round discs. If you insert
irregular, non-round shaped discs, they may
jam in the DVD drive or not play properly.
• Check all discs for cracks, scratches or warp-
age before playing. Discs that have cracks or
18
scratches, or those that are warped may not
play properly. Do not use such discs.
• Avoid touching the recorded (non-printed side)
surface when handling the disc.
• Store discs in their cases when not in use.
• Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do not
expose the discs to high temperatures.
• Do not attach labels to, write on, or apply
chemicals to the surface of the discs.
• To clean dirt from a disc, wipe the disc with a
soft cloth outward from the center of the disc.
• If the heater is used in cold weather, condensa-
tion may form on components inside the DVD
drive. Condensation may cause the DVD drive
to operate incorrectly. If you think that conden-
sation is a problem, turn off the DVD drive for
an hour or so to allow the DVD drive to dry out,
and wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth to
remove the moisture.
• Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.
Ambient conditions for playing
disc
• At extremely high temperatures, a temperature
cutoff protects this product by switching it off
automatically.
• Despite our careful design of the navigation
system, as a result of mechanical wear, ambi-
ent conditions for use or handling of the disc,
small scratches that do not affect actual opera-
tion may appear on the disc surface. This is not
a sign of the malfunction of this navigation sys-
tem. Consider it to be normal wear and tear.

Using the LCD Panel Correctly

Handling the LCD panel

• Be careful of fingers, long hair, and loose
articles of clothing which could possibly
get caught between the LCD panel and the
main body and cause serious injury.
