Important Notice

Installation of headrest products require careful planning and preparation. Be extremely careful of seats that have airbags built into them. Keep wiring away from any air bag wiring (usually identified by yellow connectors and yellow wire jackets). Damage to air bag wiring can result in personal injury to vehicle occupants. If you have any questions regarding wire routing or installation in a vehicle, please contact Audiovox Technical Support at 1-800-225-6074.

When connecting power and ground in a mobile video installation, insure that the ACC wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle ACC wiring. Failure to do so can result in damage to the vehicle if a short circuit develops between the vehicle connection point and the mobile video product.

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 navigation. 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 when 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 is not applied must be installed to the rear of the driver’s seat where it will not be visible, directly or indirectly, to be operator of the motor vehicle.

VEHICLE PREPARATION

1) Decide on the system configuration and the options that will be installed.

2) Read the manuals and get familiar with the electrical requirements and connections.

3) Decide on the mounting locations and methods of mounting the products that will be connected to the AVXMTGHR1D.

4) Prepare the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain access to

the vehicle's wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting wire harnesses

will be located. The mounting method, and the location will vary from vehicle to vehicle, so this manual will only focus for the installation of the AVXMTGHR1D Monitors in the supplied configuration. The best location for the AVXMTGHR1D System components is:

a. Monitors: Vehicle specific Headrest NOTE: The Master Monitor should be installed in the passenger position most used.)

5) Locate an accessory power source (+12VDC present when the ignition key is in

the accessory and run positions. 0VDC should be present when the ignition key is in the OFF position), a constant power source (+12vdc) at all times, regardless of the ignition key and a good ground. Generally, these wires can be found at the ignition switch or fusebox.

NOTE: Ensure that both the constant and accessory power is fused at the source. Failure to do so may result in vehicle wiring damage.)

6) Run the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary. (Refer to the

Wiring Diagrams on page 8, as well as the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory options being installed). Be sure, that all the wiring is protected from sharp edges and is routed in such a manner that it will not be pinched, when it is fully installed. Be sure to leave enough slack in the wiring at each component to allow sufficient working room. Be sure to leave enough slack in the monitor cables to allow the headrest to move up or down, and seat movement.

7) Remove all the A/V system components from their packaging and then place

them in the vehicle at their respective locations.

8) Install the headrests:

a. Remove vehicle's original headrests. b. insert appropriate support tube adaptors in vehicle post guides. (if needed) c. Hold the headrest above the seat and insert the two cables into the vehicle support guides Make sure that the headrest is in the correct position (Display facing the rear). d. Route the cables through the seat back and out the bottom of the seat while pulling the cables to remove the slack. Be sure to leave enough slack in the monitor cables to allow the headrest to move up or down.

9) Connect all the components together (electrically) and verify proper operation of

all the system functions.

Wireless FM Modulator

The AVXMTGHR1D is equipped with a built-in wireless FM Modulator, that allows you to listen to the DVD audio signal by tuning your vehicle’s radio to the selected frequency, (CH1 87.7MHz, (CH2 88.1MHz, CH3 88.5MHz, CH4

88.9MHz, CH5 106.7.1MHz, CH6 107.1MHz, CH7 107.5MHz, CH8 107.9MHz.

This feature is accessed by using the FM transmitter buttons on the remote (FMM ON/OFF, and CHANNEL SELECT).

Whenever the FM Modulator is on, broadcast reception on the vehicles radio will be poor. Switching the FM Modulator off will allow normal radio reception.

NOTE: In certain areas where there are a large number of FM radio stations (e.g. large cities, urban areas), the reception of the FM signal may not be satisfactory, resulting in static, distorted sound or signal bleed thru from strong local radio stations. This is not a defect in the product, but the result of a stronger local radio station overpowering the wireless FM transmitter in your headrest monitor.
