Setting the System
WARNING
Always verify the safety of the surrounding area when setting the adjustable speed
limiter:
If the speed is set lower than the current vehicle speed, the vehicle speed is decreased
to the set speed. Verify the safety of the surrounding area and keep a safer distance
between vehicles ahead and behind you.

be adjusted in 10 km/h (5 mph) increments. The set speed can also be adjusted in about 1
km/h (1 mph) increments by pressing the RESUME/
switch momentary. For example,
the set speed increases about 4 km/h (4 mph) by pressing the RESUME/
switch 4
times.
4. To decrease the set speed, press the SET
switch continuously. The set speed can be
adjusted in 10 km/h (5 mph) decrements. The set speed can also be adjusted in about 1

Glossary
DVD-Video
DVD-Video is a video image storing
standard determined by the DVD forum.
“MPEG2”, a global standard in digital
compression technologies, has been
adopted which compresses on average
about 1/40th of the image data and stores
it. In addition, a variable-rate coding
technology, which changes the assigned
information amount according to the shape
of the screen image, has been adopted.
Audio information can be stored using
Dolby digital instead of PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation) and more realistic sounding
audio can be enjoyed.
In addition, various, supplementary
functions such as multi-language
availability are provided for enhanced
enjoyment.
DVD-VR
DVD-VR is short for DVD Video
Recording Format; video image storing
standard determined by the DVD forum.
Multi-angle
One of the DVD player's functions.
Because scenes can be recorded in
multiple angles (camera position), users
can choose a desired angle.
Multi-language
As a function of the DVD player, audio
or subtitles for the same video images can
be stored in multiple languages and the
language can be selected freely. Region code
DVD players and discs are assigned codes
for each market region and only discs
manufactured for that speci¿ c region can
be played.
A disc cannot be played if the region code
assigned to the player is not indicated on
the disc.
In addition, even if a region code is not
indicated on the disc, disc playback may
be prohibited depending on the region. In
this case, a disc may not be playable in
this DVD player.
Operating Tips for OGG
OGG is the audio compression format for
Xiph. Org Foundation.
Audio data can be created and stored at a
higher compression ratio than MP3.
This unit plays ¿ les with the extension
(.ogg) as OGG ¿ les.
CAUTION
Do not use an audio ¿ le extension on
¿ les other than audio ¿ les. In addition,
do not change the audio ¿ le extension.
Otherwise, the unit will not recognise
the¿ le correctly resulting in noise or a
malfunction.
 


 OGG ¿ les written under speci¿ cations
other than the indicated speci¿ cation
may not play normally or ¿ les or folder
names may not display correctly.
 


 The ¿ le extension may not be provided
depending on the computer operating
system, version, software, or settings. In
this case, add the ¿ le extension “.ogg” to
the end of the ¿ le name, and then write
it to the disc/memory.
