NTRODUCTION
DVD video is a high-quality digital video source that pro-
vides crisp and clear images. One 12 cm disc contains either
one film or up to four hours of music content.
MP3 technology is a world recognized standard for digital
video and audio compression, thus enabling more data to be
squeezed onto a Compact Disc. MP3 technology is becom-
ing more common with cable, internet and satellite transmis-
sion. The compression offered by MP3 technology makes it
easier to transmit and record high quality video and audio
signals from your computer than in the past. The VS715
allows playback of MP3 recorded media.
The Clarion VS715 is a full-featured Digital Media Player
specifically created for the mobile environment. It is
designed to work with Clarion Multimedia devices and
Clarion Video Monitors for a complete video solution.

DVD Care
• Always handle the disc by the edges. Never touch the
surface. To remove fingerprints and dust, use a soft cloth
and wipe in a straight line from the center of the disc to
the outside edge.
• Take care of IR Remote Control. Keep the remote with
your DVD cases, where it is unlikely to be lost or dam-
aged.
• Keep liquids away from the DVD player, including bever-
ages and cleaning liquids. Spilling any liquid on the
VS715 can damage the electronics, resulting in an electri-
cal shock or fire.
• If the unit or remote control should become wet, turn off
all power and let an authorized Clarion Dealer clean or ser-
vice the equipment.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN OR SERVICE THE
UNIT OR REMOTE CONTROL. THE INTERNAL
PARTS ARE NOT USER-SERVICEABLE. DOING
SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
• Do not use any liquid or aerosol cleaners, anti-static spray,
or thinner to clean the disc surface.
• Do not allow coins, cleaning cloths, papers and other
objects to be pushed into the DVD slot. These objects
could connect with a voltage point inside the VS715 and
cause an electrical shock, or may short out parts causing
unit failure or fire.
Temperature and Moisture
When the inside of the vehicle is very cold and the player is
used immediately, moisture may form on the disc or the opti-
cal parts and proper playback may not be possible. If mois-
ture forms on the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth.
If moisture forms on the optical parts of the player, allow the
player to sit for about one hour with power on. The conden-
sation will disappear naturally allowing for normal operation.
Please consult your nearest Clarion Dealer for recommenda-
tions and service.
