1. PRECAUTIONS
1. This set is for use in DC 12V, negative ground
vehicles. Be sure to consult your store of pur-
chase or a Clarion-designated service outlet
before installing it on DC 24V cars.
2. Do not operate the set in ways other than
described in this guide. Doing so may dam-
age it.
8. Do not let lit cigarettes or other hot objects
touch the set. Doing so may damage or de-
form the cabinet.
9. Do not let the set become hot. If the tempera-
ture in the car is high or if the set has been
exposed to direct sunlight and is hot, lower
the temperature before using it.
3. Safety first! For rear seat use only. Do not
install on dashboard or anywhere else that
would permit monitor to be viewed by the
driver. Monitor must not be located in the
motor vehicle at any point forward of the back
of the front seats. Monitor must never be used
in any manner that will distract driver or inter-
fere with driver’s safe operation of the motor
vehicle.
4. Be careful not to run down the car battery
while using the set with the car stopped.
5. For safety, install the set in a position at which
it cannot be seen by the driver.
(The LCD panel will work properly within a
temperature range of 0 to 40 ˚C.)
10.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 in-
creases.
11.Small black and shiny dots inside the liquid
crystal panel are normal for liquid crystal prod-
ucts.
6. Do not disassemble or modify the set. Doing
so may damage it.
7. Keep drinks and drops from umbrellas away
from the set. Water may damage the internal
circuitry.

CAUTION
Precautions on handling of the LCD panel
• Do not leave the monitor on the dashboard with the LCD panel facing upwards. (Range of storage
temperature: -20˚C to +80˚C)
When the temperature is high or low, chemical changes occur in the LCD panel, resulting in damage
to the monitor.
• Since the LCD panel has been specially processed, the fingerprints will remain on the panel and
stand out if you touch the panel. Avoid touching the panel as much as possible. Also avoid pushing
the panel.
• When temperature becomes low, the picture does not appear or sometimes it takes time to appear.
On occasion, the picture motion seems to be different from that at normal temperature and the
picture quality deteriorates. These phenomena are not a malfunction. (Range of operating tempera-
ture: 0˚C to +40˚C)
• On the panel red dots, blue dots and green dots are found.This is peculiar to the LCD panel and it is
not a malfunction.
[The LCD panel has been designed and manufactured using a highly developed precision technol-
ogy and has a 99.99 % or more effective pixels. However, note that 0.01 % of pixels are defective
and always light.]
