4. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Toeeklsa car radio, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Screen Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for electronics to clean the touch screen. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemical cleaners. Lightly dampen the cloth with water if necessary, but never spray liquid directly onto the screen.
