2. PRECAUTIONS

• For your safety, the driver should not watch any video sources and/or operate the controls while driving. Please

note that watching and operating any video sources while driving are prohibited by law in some countries. Also,

while driving, keep the volume to a level at which external sounds can be heard.

• When using the navigation system, follow the precautions listed below. After reading this manual, be sure to

keep it in a handy place (such as the glove box of your car).

• This navigation system should not be used to replace your own judgment. No itinerary suggested by this

navigation system should ever override any highway regulations, your own judgment, or a knowledge of safe

driving practices. Do not follow the navigation system’s suggested itinerary if it would cause you to perform a

dangerous or illegal act, place you in a dangerous situation, or take you into an area you consider unsafe.

• The advice provided by the navigation system is to be regarded as a suggestion only. There may be times when

the navigation system displays the vehicle’s location incorrectly, fails to suggest the shortest route, or fails to

direct you to your desired destination. In such instances, rely on your own driving judgment, taking into account

the driving conditions at the time.

• Do not use the navigation system to locate emergency services. The database does not contain a complete

listing of emergency services such as police stations, fire halls, hospitals and walk-in clinics. Please show

discretion and ask for directions in such instances.

• As the driver, you alone are responsible for your driving safety.

• In order to avoid a trafc accident, do not operate the system while driving.

• In order to avoid a trafc accident, operate the system only when the vehicle is stopped at a safe place and

the parking brake is on.

• In order to avoid a traffic accident or traffic offense, remember that actual road conditions and traffic

regulations take precedence over the information contained on the navigation system.

• The software may contain inaccurate or incomplete information due to the passage of time, changing

circumstances, and the sources of information used. Please respect current trafﬁc conditions and regulations

at all times while driving.

• Where actual road conditions and highway regulations differ from the information contained on the navigation

system, abide by the highway regulations.

• Keep the amount of time spent viewing the screen while driving to a strict minimum.

• The navigation system does not provide, nor represent in any way information on: traffic and highway

regulations; technical aspects of the vehicle including weight, height, width, load and speed limits; road

conditions including grade, percentage of incline and surface conditions; obstacles such as the height and width

of bridges and tunnels; and other current driving or road conditions. Always rely on your own judgment when

driving a car, taking into account current driving conditions.

• Do not disassemble or modify this unit. It may cause an accident, re, or electric shock.

• Do not use this unit when a trouble exists, such as no screen content appears or no sound is audible. It may

cause an accident, ﬁre, or electric shock. For that case, consult your authorized dealer or a nearest Clarion

service center.

• In case of a problem, such as any material has been entered in the unit, the unit gets wet, or smoke or strange

smells come out of the unit, etc., stop using this unit immediately, and consult your authorized dealer or a

nearest Clarion service center.

Using it in that condition may cause an accident, ﬁre, or electric shock.

• Use a fuse with the same specication only when replacing the fuse.

Using a fuse with a different speciﬁcation may causes a ﬁre.

• For the installation of this unit or a change in the installation, ask your authorized dealer or a nearest Clarion

service center for safety. Professional skills and experiences are required to do so.

3. CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

Operation Panel

• The operation panel will operate properly in a

temperature range of 0˚ to 60˚ C.

• Do not allow any liquids on the set from drinks,

umbrellas etc. Doing so may damage the internal

circuitry.

• Do not disassemble or modify the set in any way.

Doing so may result in damage.

• Subjecting the operation panel to shocks may result

in breakage, deformation or other damage.

• Do not let cigarettes burn the display.

• If a problem should occur, have the set inspected at

your store of purchase.

• Do not insert objects or poke in the space between

the operation panel and the main unit when the panel

is tilted.

• The remote control unit may not work if the remote

control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight.

• In extremely cold weather, the display movement

may slow down and the display may darken, but this

is not a malfunction. The display will work normally

when the e temperature increases.

• Small black and shiny spots inside the liquid crystal

panel are normal for LCD products.

For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.

Cleaning

• Cleaning the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe off the dirt. For

tough dirt, apply some neutral detergent diluted in

water to a soft cloth, wipe off the dirt gently, then

wipe again with a dry cloth.

Do not use benzene, thinner, car cleaner, etc., as

these substances may damage the cabinet or cause

the paint to peel. Also, leaving rubber or plastic

products in contact with the cabinet for long periods

of time may cause stains.

• Cleaning the liquid crystal panel

The liquid crystal panel tends to collect dust, so wipe

it off occasionally with a soft cloth. The surface is

easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard objects.

USB Port

• The USB memory stick may stick out when inserted,

so it may cause danger during driving. In such cases,

you can use a commercial USB extension cable, etc.,

but use it safely under your own judgment.

• The USB memory sticks must be recognized as “USB

mass storage class” to work properly. Some models

may not operate correctly.

When the memorized data is lost or damaged by any

chance, Clarion shall not be liable for any damage.

When using an USB memory stick, we recommend

that you backup your data stored on it before by

using a personal computer etc.

• Data les may be broken when using USB memory

sticks in the following situation:

When disconnecting the USB memory stick or

turning the power off during writing or reading data.

When affected by static electricity or electric noise.

Connect/disconnect the USB memory stick when it

is not accessed.

• Some USB memory sticks cannot be inserted to the

main unit because of their shape. In such cases, use

a commercial USB extension cable to connect them.

• Connecting with the computer is not covered.

• Music files (MP3, WMA, etc.) stored in the USB

memory stick can be played back.

Handling Discs

Handling

• New discs may have some roughness around the

edges. If such discs are used, the player may not

work or the sound may skip. Use a ball-point pen or

the like to remove any roughness from the edge of

the disc.

• Never stick labels on the surface of the disc or mark

the surface with a pencil or pen.

• Never play a disc with any cellophane tape or other

glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to play

such a disc, you may not be able to get it back out of

the DVD player or it may damage the DVD player.

• Do not use discs that have large scratches, are

misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of such discs may

cause misoperation or damage.

• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down

on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding

it carefully by the edges.

sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These

may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the

internal mechanism.

Storage

• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat

source.

• Do not expose discs to excess humidity or dust.

• Do not expose discs to direct heat from heaters.

Cleaning

• To remove ngermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and

wipe in a straight line from the center of the disc to

the circumference.

• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially

available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to

clean discs.

• After using special disc cleaner, let the disc dry off

well before playing it.

On Discs

• Exercise a good precaution when loading a disc. The

operation panel will close automatically when leaving

it open for a while.

Listening To MP3/WMA

This unit is an ID3 Tag compatible model.

This unit supports the ID3 TAGs of the Version 2.4, 2.3,

1.1 and 1.0.

In displaying, this unit gives priority to the Version 2.3

and 2.4 TAGs.

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3 is an audio compression method and classiﬁed

into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.

WMA is an audio compression method developed by

Microsoft Corporation.

These audio compression methods have penetrated

into PC users and become a standard format.

These features compress the original audio data to

about 10 percent of its initial size with a high sound

quality. This means that about 10 music CDs can be

recorded on a CD-R disc or CD-RW disc to allow a

long listening time without having to change CDs.

Note: Some CDs recorded on CD-R/RW mode may not

be usable.

Displaying MP3/WMA TAG titles

Tag information such as title, artist and album title

can be displayed for MP3/WMA file containing Tag

information.

Precautions when creating MP3 disc

• File extensions

1. Always add a file extension “.MP3” or “.mp3” to

an MP3 le, and “.WMA” or “.wma” to a WMA le by

using single byte letters. If you add a file extension

other than specified or forget to add these file

extension, the ﬁle cannot be played. In addition, if you

use upper case and lower case letters (capital and

small letters) mixed for file extensions, normal play

may not be possible.

2. Files other than MP3/WMA data cannot be played.

Playing files with a format not supported will be

skipped, and the scan, random and repeat playback

mode may be canceled.

• File and Disc Not Supported

Files and discs with following extensions are not

supported: *.AAC, *.DLF, *.M3U, *.PLS, *.MP3 PRO

NX_NZ501北美版说明书.indd 25 2011-1-19 17:36:22

26 NX501/NZ501

English

Owner’s Manual

ﬁles, ﬁles with DRM, open session discs.

• Logical format (File system)

1. When writing an MP3/WMA file on a disc, please

select “ISO9660 level 1 or level 2(without including

expansion format)” as the writing software format.

Normal playback may not be possible if the disc is

recorded on another format.

2. The folder name and file name can be displayed

as the title during MP3/WMA play but the title must

be within 31 single byte alphabetical letters and

numerals for the folder name and ﬁle name (including

an extension). Entering more letters or numerals than

speciﬁed may cause an incorrect display.

• Entering File and Folder Names

Names using the code list characters are the only

ﬁle names and folder names that can be entered and

displayed. Using any other character will cause the ﬁle

and folder names to be displayed incorrectly.

• Electronic Shock Protection

10 seconds for CD-DA (CDA)

45 seconds for MP3 recorded at 44.1 kHz, 128 kbps

90 seconds for WMA recorded at 44.1 kHz, 128 kbps

• Folder structure

1. A disc with a folder having more than 8 hierarchical

levels will conﬂict with the ISO9660 and playback will

be impossible.

• Number of les or folders

1. The maximum allowable number of folders is 255

(including root directory); the maximum allowable

number of files is 512 (max. 255 per folder). This

represents the maximum number of tracks that can be

played back.

2. Tracks are played in the order that they were

recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not always be

played in the order displayed on the PC).

• Some noise may occur depending on the type of

encoder software used while recording.

• In case of a track recorded at VBR (variable bit

rate), the display for the play time of the track may be

slightly different from the actual play time. Also, the

recommended value of VBR ranges from 32 kbps to

320 kbps.

• After disc selection, the play mode is automatically

engaged.

Playing MP3 folders

When selected for play, files and folders (Folder

Search, File Search or Folder Select) are accessed

in the order in which they were written to the media.

As a result, the order in which they are expected to

be played may not match the order in which they are

actually played.

You may be able to set the order in which MP3/WMA

ﬁles are to be played by assigning ﬁle names beginning

with play sequence numbers such as “01” to “99”.

For example, a medium with the following folder/ ﬁle

hierarchy is subject to Folder Search, File Search or

Folder Select.

See the diagram below.

The player will only recognize three folder levels and

does not display folders containing other folders. In

the example above, the unit will display folders 2,3, 5

and 7, but 1 and 6 since they do not contain others.

3. General Cautions

1. Do not open the case. There are no user- serviceable

parts inside. If you drop anything into the unit during

installation, consult your dealer or an authorized

Clarion service center.

2. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the case. Never use

source unit before starting.

2. This model features an operation panel that slides

forward.

On some types of cars, the operation panel may

make contact with the dashboard or gearshift

lever, in which cause it cannot be installed. Before

installing, check that the unit will not hamper

operation of the gearshift lever or obstruct your view

before selecting the installation location. (Figure 2)

3. Install the unit within 30° of the horizontal plane.

(Figure 3)

4. If you have to do any work on the car body, such as

drilling holes, consult your car dealer beforehand.
