Caution
Warning
Warning
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER
Attempts to disassemble or alter may lead to accident, fire or electric shock.
KEEP SMALL ARTICLES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN
Store small articles (batteries, screws etc.) in places not accessible to chil-
dren. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND
Use only in cars with a 12 volts negative (–) ground. (Check with your dealer
if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.
BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE
BATTERY TERMINAL
Before doing any electrical wiring, disconnect the cable from the negative (–)
terminal of the battery. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury
due to electrical shorts.
KEEP ELECTRICAL CABLES TOGETHER TO AVOID OPERATING HAZ-
ARDS
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the installation manual to
prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstructs or hangs
up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals can be
extremely hazardous.
DO NOT CUT AWAY THE WIRE SHEATH AND USE POWER TO OTHER
EQUIPMENT
Never cut away the cable shielding to use power to another piece of equip-
ment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result
in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE
OPERATION
Do not install in locations which might create hazards for the vehicle occu-
pants or hinder vehicle operation (such as the steering wheel or gear shift) by
obstructing forward vision or hampering movement etc.
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not
to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take
such precautions may result in fire.
DO NOT USE NUTS OR BOLTS IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM WHEN MAKING
INSTALLATION OR GROUND CONNECTIONS
Never use safety-related parts such as bolts or nuts in the steering or brake
systems or tanks to make wiring installations or ground connections. Using
such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.
HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS
When problems appear, stop using the system immediately and contact the
dealer from whom you purchased the equipment. Some problems which may
warrant immediate attention include a lack of sound, noxious odors or smoke
being emitted from the unit, or foreign objects dropped inside the unit.
DO NOT OPERATE THE REMOTE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING
Do not change settings while driving. If operation requiring a prolonged view
of the display is required, stop the vehicle in a safe location before attempting
operation.
DO NOT INSTALL THE MONITOR NEAR THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR
BAG
Ensure that the location chosen for the monitor does not interfere with the
operation of the passenger seat air bag. This will prevent the triggered air
bag from launching the display towards passengers, possible causing injury.
Caution
HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS
The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and
experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you pur-
chased this unit to have the work done.
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY
Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than desig-
nated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the
unit in place as parts that come loose can create hazards.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR DUST
Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of moisture or dust.
Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may cause smoke or fire.
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS
Failure to make the correct connections can cause fire or accident to occur.
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED
Route the cables and wiring so as not be crimped by moving parts like seat
rail or make contact with sharp or pointed spots which might damage the
wiring.
DO NOT RAISE THE VOLUME EXCESSIVELY
Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside noises while
driving. Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.
DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
Do not use this equipment for purposes other than those listed for a vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in an electric shock or an injury.

Installation

Installing the Monitor
Caution:
If your vehicle has passenger side air bags, make sure the monitor is not
mounted in an area where the air bag will be deployed.
1 Assemble the mounting bracket and temporarily mount the monitor.
Note:
Always use the TV mounting bracket supplied.
2 Carefully choose the installation location.
Select a location that is as flat as possible. Temporarily mount the unit there
using double-stick tape.
Notes:
• Mounting hints
• Top of the monitor should not exceed the top of the dash-board when
viewed from the drivers seat.
• The mounting surface should be strong and stable.
• Position the monitor and viewing angle so it can be easily seen.
• Do not install this unit in a location that will obstruct the operation of any
safety device (such as air bags or passive restraint systems).
• If the surface of the dash board is finished with other than plastic such as
leather, wood, or cloth, damage may occur when the mounting bracket is
removed.
3 Peel the protective paper from the double stick tape on the mounting bracket.
Secure the bracket at the installation location.
Clean the installation location with the cleaner supplied.
Notes:
• Warm the installation location with a dryer before putting the mounting
bracket into place.
• Do not apply force or moisture for 24 hours after installation.
• If the bracket is not attached securely, mount the bracket with the screws
provided.
• ★: If the mounting surface is curved, reform the base of the mounting
bracket to match its shape.
4 Connect the monitor.
Insert the connector into the back of the monitor until a click is heard.
5 Mount the monitor on the mounting bracket.
Align the threaded hole on the bottom of the monitor to the mounting thumb-
screw. Secure the monitor by rotating the thumbscrew.
Use the cord clamper to dress the cord to prevent possible entanglements.
6 Adjust the height and angle of the monitor for the best viewing angle.
Determine the height and angle. Tighten the height adjusting screw and the
angle adjusting screw securely to fix the monitor.
