Cleaning the panel and monitor
When the operator panel and monitor panels are dirty, wipe
and clean them using a soft cloth (such as a commercially
available silicon coated cloth). When contaminated

detergent first, then remove the detergent using a dry cloth.
Do not use a hard cloth and a volatile chemical (such as
an alcohol). If used, the panel surface may be scratched or
printed letters may be erased.
Cleaning the disc slot
As dust can accumulate in the disc slot, clean it occasionally.
Your discs can get scratched if you put them in a dusty disc
slot.
Lens Fogging
Right after you turn on the car heater in cold weather, dew
or condensation may form on the lens in the disc player of

play. In such a situation, remove the disc and wait for the
condensation to evaporate. If the unit still does not operate
