Headrest 5.6" LCD Monitor
Owner’s Manual
IMPORTANT
An LCD panel and/or video monitor may be installed in a motor vehicle
and visible to the driver if the LCD panel or video monitor is used for
vehicle information, system control, rear or side observation or naviga-
tion. If the LCD panel or video monitor is used for television reception,
video or DVD play, the LCD panel or video monitor must be installed so
that these features will only function then the vehicle is in ‘park’ or when
the vehicle’s parking brake is applied.
An LCD panel or video monitor used for television reception, video or
DVD play that operates when the vehicle is in gear or when the parking
brake is not applied, must be installed to the rear of the driver’s seat
where it will not be visible, directly or indirectly, to the operator of the
motor vehicle.
A. Precaution:
1. Before installation, verify that it will not damage electrical wires, fuel
lines, brake lines, hoses, exhaust systemcomponents or any other
items that will impair the operation of the vehicle.
2. Ensure the cable has already been pulled through the supporting
pipe before installing the base into the headrest. Ensure there is no
foreign material trapped inside the enclosure before installing the
monitor into the base.
3. Tighten all screws/bolts/nuts securely for installation.
4. To avoid electrical hazards, do not disassemble the cabinet of the
monitor.
5. Use only the supplied DIN cable. Disconnect the cable from the
signal source before disconnecting it from the monitor, after turning
off the whole system.
6. Do not use gasoline, thinners or other thinning liquids to clean the
unit. Remove dust and stains with a damp cloth.
