2. PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

For your safety, the driver should not watch the DVD video/TV/VTR or operate the controls

while driving. Please note that watching and operating the DVD video/TV/VTR while driving are

prohibited by law in some countries. 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

INFORMATION FOR USERS:.

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.

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS

PRODUCT NOT APPROVED BY THE

MANUFACTURER WILL VOID THE

WARRANTY.

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.

4. 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.

• Such 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.

8. CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

Liquid crystal panel/Generalities

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

• Be sure to house the liquid crystal panel inside

the main unit when parking the car outdoors for

long period of time. The liquid crystal panel will

operate properly in a temperature range of 0 to

60°C.

• Do not allow any liquids on the set from drinks,

umbrellas etc. Doing so may damage the

internal circuitry.

• Do not disassemble or modify the set in any

way. Doing so may result in damage.

• Do not draw the liquid crystal panel out and use

it as a tray. Also, subjecting the liquid crystal

panel to shocks may result in breakage,

deformation or other damage.

• Do not place anything on the display when the

panel is tilted.

• The remote control may not work if the remote

control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight.

• In extremely cold weather, the display

movement may slow down and the display may

darken, but this is not a malfunction. The

display will work normally when the

temperature increases.

• Small black and shiny spots inside the liquid

crystal panel are normal for LCD products.

• The liquid crystal panel may stop temporarily

when it opens or closes, when the engine stops

or when it is cold.

• Do not let cigarettes burn the display. Doing so

may damage or deform the cabinet.

• If a problem should occur, have the set

inspected at your store of purchase.

• Do not insert objects or poke in the space

between the liquid crystal panel and the main

unit when the panel is tilted.

• The touchkeys on the display operate when

slightly touched. Do not press the touchkey

screen with much force.

• Do not push the case surrounding the touchkey

panel with much force. This may cause

malfunctioning of the touchkeys.

Cleaning

• Cleaning the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe off the 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 cabinet

or cause the paint to peel. Also, leaving rubber

or plastic products in contact with the cabinet

for long periods of time may cause stains.

• Cleaning the liquid crystal panel

The liquid crystal panel tends to collect dust, so

wipe it off occasionally with a soft cloth. The

surface is easily scratched, so do not rub it with

hard objects.

VRX766VD

Handling Discs

Handling

Storage

• 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.

• 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.

Ball-point pen

Cleaning

Roughness

• To remove fingermarks 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

off well before playing it.

• 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 DVD player or it may

damage the DVD 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.

On Discs

• Exercise a good precaution when loading a

disc with the panel open.

• Never turn off the power and remove the unit

from the car with a disc loaded.

Caution

CAUTION

With the screen open, a driver may not be

able to see the disc insertion slot. For your

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3 is an audio compression method and

classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.

WMA is an audio compression method

developed by Microsoft Corporation.

These audio compression methods have

penetrated into PC users and become a standard

format.

These features compress the original audio data

to about 10 percent of its initial size with a high

sound quality. This means that about 10 music

CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc or CD-RW

disc to allow a long listening time without having

to change CDs.

to play.

DVD Video Player Operations

• In case of a track recorded at VBR (variable

bit rate), the display for the play time of the

track may be slightly different from the

actual play time. Also, the recommended

value of VBR ranges from 64 kbps to 320

kbps.

• Depending on the damage conditions of a

file, it may occur that the file is not played

and the next file is played instead. Also, if

the damage is in a severe condition, play

stops showing the “ERROR 3” display.

• After disc selection, the play mode is

automatically engaged.

Precautions when creating an MP3

disc

●File extensions

1. Always add a file extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”

to an MP3 file, and “.WMA” or “.wma” to a

WMA file by using single byte letters. If you

add a file extension other than specified or

forget to add these file extension, the file

cannot be played. In addition, if you use upper

case and lower case letters (capital and small

letters) mixedly for file extensions, normal

play may not be possible.

2. Files other than MP3/WMA data cannot be

played.

●Logical format (File system)

Note:

• If ID3 Tag information was entered with 2-byte

characters, it may occur that the characters are not

reproduced properly on the display.

• MP3/WMA files that the DRM (Digital Rights

Management) function is set cannot be played.

1. When writing an MP3/WMA file on a disc,

please select “ISO9660 level 1 or level 2

(without including expansion format)” as

the writing software format. Normal playback

may not be possible if the disc is recorded on

another format.

2. The folder name and filename can be

displayed as the title during MP3/WMA play

but the title must be within 31 single byte

alphabetical letters and numerals for the

folder name and file name (including an

extension). Entering more letters or numerals

than specified may cause an incorrect

display.

Regarding MP3/WMA folder creation

Up to 8 folder levels (including the root directory)

can be created for MP3/WMA files (items 1 – in

the illustration). However, on this unit, folders

created above the third level will be converted to

2 levels.

●Folder structure

1. A disc with a folder having more than 8

hierarchical levels will conflict with the

ISO9660 and playback will be impossible.

●Number of files or folders

1. The maximum allowable number of folders is

255 (including root directory); the maximum

allowable number of files is 512 (max. 255 per

folder). This represents the maximum number

of tracks that can be played back.

• Folders containing no MP3/WMA files are not

recognized.

• Only folders containing tracks (1 to 4 in

illustration) are given numbers and displayed

on the list.

2. Tracks are played in the order that they were

recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not

always be played in the order displayed on the

PC.)

• Some noise may occur depending on the

type of encoder software used while

recording.
