be handled with care.
WARNING
Never disassemble the display. Some
parts utilize extremely high voltage.
Touching them may result in serious
personal injury.
CHARACTERISTICS OF LIQUID

.If the temperature inside the vehicle is
especially low, the display will stay relatively
dim or the movement of the images may be
slow. These conditions are normal. The
display will function normally when the
interior of the vehicle has warmed up.
. Some pixels in the display are darker or
brighter than others. This condition is an
inherent characteristic of liquid crystal dis-
plays, and it is not a malfunction.
. A remnant of the previous display image may
remain on the screen. This screen burn is
inherent in displays, and it is not a malfunc-
tion. .
The screen may become distorted by strong
magnetic fields.
MAINTENANCE OF DISPLAY
CAUTION
.To clean the display screen, use a dry,
soft cloth. If additional cleaning is
necessary, use a small amount of
neutral detergent with a soft cloth.
. Clean the display with the power
switch in the OFF position. If the
display is cleaned while the power
switch is placed in the ON position or
when the READY to drive indicator
light is on, unintentional operation
may occur.
. To clean the display, never use a
rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner
or any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent. They
will scratch or deteriorate the panel.
. Do not splash any liquid such as
water or car fragrance on the display.
Contact with liquid will cause the
system to malfunction.
