1. Read this manual fully and carefully before operating your display.
2. Keep this manual handy for future reference.
3. Pay close attention to all warnings in this manual and follow the instructions carefully.
4. Never allow others to use the system until they have read and understood the
operating instructions.
5. Do not install the display where it may (i) obstruct the driver's vision, (ii) impair the
performance of any of the vehicle's operating systems or safety features, including
airbags, or (iii) impair the driver's ability to safely operate the vehicle.
6. As with any accessory in your vehicle's interior, the display should not divert your
attention from the safe operation of your vehicle. If you experience difficulty in
operating the system or reading the display, please park safely before making
adjustments.
7. Do not attempt to install or service your display by yourself. Installation or servicing of
the display by persons without training and experience in electronic equipment and
automotive accessories may be dangerous and could expose you to the risk of electric
shock or other hazards.
8. Please remember to wear your seat belt at all times while operating your vehicle. If you
are ever in an accident, your injuries can be considerably more severe if your seat belt
is not properly buckled.
9. If this product is installed in a place where it is visible to the vehicle's driver, you MUST
always set the [DISPLAY SETTING] to the [FRONT] setting. Failure to do so could
result in distracting images being potentially visible to the driver while the vehicle is in
motion.
If this product is installed in a place where it is not visible to the vehicle's driver, then
you may choose the [REAR] location setting.
Use of this product is subject to any local laws regarding placement or use.
PIONEER Corporation cannot accept any liability for any problems, damage or loss
incurred as a result of the product being used with an incorrect setting or in violation
of any local laws.
This device senses whether the parking brake is on or off. When installed in the front,
it is arranged so that video cannot be viewed while the vehicle is moving. The various
settings and adjustments are also not possible while driving. (The following message
will be displayed on the screen while the vehicle is moving.)
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, apply the parking brake, and wait for the message to
be cleared before starting operation.
Due to its construction, the angle of view of the LCD screen is limited. The viewing
angle (vertical 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 viewing 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.
Always run the vehicle engine while using this device. Using this device without
running the engine can result in battery drainage.
When using a portable phone, keep the antenna of the portable phone away from the
Display to prevent disruption of the video by the appearance of spots, colored stripes,
etc.
• Do not allow direct sunlight to fall on the Display when this device is not being used.
Extended exposure to direct sunlight can result in LCD screen malfunction due to
the resulting high temperatures.
• Do not route wires where they will be exposed to high temperatures. If the insulation
heats up, wires may become damaged, resulting in a short circuit or malfunction.
