• WHEN LIGHTNING OCCURS, DO NOT TOUCH
THE ANTENNA WIRE OR THE TELEVISION.
TOUCHING THE ANTENNA WIRE OR THE TELEVI-
SION UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS MAY CAUSE
ELECTROCUTION.
CAUTION :
Change or modifications not approved by JVC could void
user's authority to operate the equipment. This equip-
ment has been tested and found to comply with the lim-
its for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide rea-
sonable protection against harmful interference in a resi-
dential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• KEEP THE MONITOR SYSTEM AT AN APPRO-
PRIATE SOUND LEVEL WHILE DRIVING.
DRIVING WITH THE SOUND AT A LEVEL THAT
PREVENTS YOU FROM HEARING SOUNDS
OUTSIDE OF AND AROUND THE VEHICLE MAY
CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
• ASK A TRAINED TECHNICIAN TO INSTALL THE
MONITOR SYSTEM.
INSTALLATION AND WIRING REQUIRE TRAINING
AND EXPERIENCE.
* TO BE SAFE, ASK THE SALES OUTLET WHERE
YOU PURCHASED THE MONITOR SYSTEM TO
PERFORM THE INSTALLATION.
• DO NOT LET THE MONITOR SYSTEM FALL OR
BE STRONGLY IMPACTED.
BE SURE TO NOT LET THE MONITOR SYSTEM
FALL OR BE STRONGLY IMPACTED SINCE THIS
MAY CAUSE A MALFUNCTION OR FIRE.
Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
• DO NOT WATCH THE MONITOR WITH THE
ENGINE OFF.
WATCHING THE MONITOR WITH THE ENGINE OFF
WILL CONSUME BATTERY POWER AND MAY
PREVENT THE ENGINE FROM STARTING.

Cautions for the liquid crystal panel
• Do not leave the liquid crystal panel surface
facing upwards on top of the dashboard.
(storage temperature range: –20 °C to +80 °C
(–4 °F to +176 °F) )
• Do not strongly impact the liquid crystal panel.
+80°C
–20
–20°C to +80°C
During the summer,
temperatures can
reach as high as
100 °C (212 °F).
When the liquid crystal panel reaches high
temperatures or low temperatures, chemical
changes occur within the liquid crystal panel
which may cause malfunctions.
• There are red spots, blue spots and green
spots on the panel surface. This is a charac-
teristic of liquid crystal panels and is not a
problem.
• When the temperature is very cold or very hot,
the image may not appear clearly or may
move slowly.
Also, movement of the image may seem to be
out of sync or the image quality may decline in
such environments. Note that this is not a
malfunction or problem.
Spots
(usage temperature range: 0 °C to +40 °C (32
°F to 104 °F) )
0 °C (32 °F) or colder
The liquid crystal panel is built with very high
precision technology and has at least 99.99%
effective image pixels. Be aware that on
0.01% of the panel there may be missing
pixels or constantly light pixels.
40 °C (104 °F) or hotter

Maintenance
To prevent damage to the system exterior
Do not apply pesticides, benzine, thinner or other
volatile substances to the unit.
The cabinet surface primarily consists of plastic ma-
terials.
Do not wipe with benzine, thinner or similar sub-
stances because this will results in discoloration or
removal of the paint.
Alcohol
Pesticide
When a cloth with a cleansing chemical is used,
follow the caution points.
Wax
Do not leave the unit in contact with rubber or vinyl
products for long periods of time.
Do not use cleansers which have polishing gran-
ules because this could damage the surface of the
unit.

Clean dirt by wiping lightly with a soft cloth
When the unit is very dirty, wipe with a well-wrung cloth
dipped in a kitchen cleanser (neutral) thinned by water and
then go over the same surface with a dry cloth.
(Since there is the possibility of water drops getting inside
of the unit, do not directly apply cleanser to the surface.)
