To watch a DVD, Video CD or TV on the front display, park your vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking brake.

Parking brake interlock

Certain functions (DVD/TV viewing and certain touch panel keys) offered by this unit could be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while driving. To prevent such functions from being used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an interlock system that senses when the parking brake is set. If you attempt to use the functions described above while driving, they will become disabled until you stop the vehicle in a safe place, and (1) apply the parking brake, (2) release the parking brake, and then (3) apply the parking brake again. Please keep the brake pedal pushed down before releasing the parking brake.

When using a display connected to REAR MONITOR OUTPUT

This unit’s REAR MONITOR OUTPUT is for connection of a display to enable passengers in the rear seats to watch the DVD or TV.

WARNING

OTHER USE MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DAMAGE.

CAUTION

!The rear view camera function is to be used as an aid to keep an eye on trailers, or while backing up. Do not use for entertainment purposes.
