Entertainment Systems 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 reception, (which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Care and service of the DVD player Environmental extremes DVD players that are subjected to harsh environmental conditions may be damaged or perform at less than optimal capability. To avoid these outcomes, whenever possible avoid exposing your DVD player to: • extremely hot or cold temperatures. • direct sunlight. • high humidity. • a dusty environment. • locations where strong magnetic fields are generated. Temperature extremes When the vehicle is parked under direct sunlight or in an extremely cold place for a long period of time, wait until the cabin temperature of the vehicle is at normal temperature before operating the system. Humidity and moisture condensation Moisture in the air will condense in the DVD player under extremely humid conditions or when moving from a cold to a warm location. If moisture condensation occurs, do not insert a CD or DVD into the player. If one is already in the player, remove it and turn the DVD player ON to dry the moisture before inserting a DVD. This could take an hour or more depending on the amount of moisture. Cleaning the liquid crystal display (LCD) flip-down screen Clean the display screen by applying a small amount of water or any ammonia-based household glass cleaner directly to a soft cloth. Rub the screen gently until the dust, dirt or fingerprints are removed. Do not spray the screen directly with water or glass cleaning solvents. Overspray from these fluids could drip down into the internal electronics of the screen and cause damage. Do not apply excessive pressure while cleaning the screen. 38 2005 Freestyle (219) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
