Additional Information English Additional Information Cleaning Troubleshooting Regular cleaning will extend the life and performance of this unit. The recommended way to clean the display and related parts is described below. Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Cleaning the display panel body and remote control Do not under any circumstances use solvents such as benzine or thinner for cleaner. Use of such liquids may cause deterioration or peeling of paint from the display or remote control unit. Wipe the display and remote control gently with a soft cloth. In the case of excessive dirt buildup, dampen a soft cloth with a diluted neutral cleaning detergent and after wringing the cloth thoroughly, wipe the component and then dry it with a dry soft cloth. Cleaning the screen After dusting, wipe the screen gently using the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft cloth. Do not use tissue or a rough cloth. As the surface of the screen is easily scratched, do not rub it or hit it with a hard object. What may at first seem to be an malfunction, may be remedied with a quick check. Please check to see if a warning is displayed on the screen. If displayed, refer to the table below and check the mode. If there is no display check to see if the problem is listed on page 35. The problem may also be caused by something other than this unit so please also check the other components being used such as a video deck.
