discs as they may cause the unit to malfunction. Do not stick paper,
tape or glue on the disc. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight
or heat sources such as hot air ducts. Do not touch the surface of
disc. Handle the disc by its edge. Clean the disc by wiping the disc
from the center out with a cleaning cloth. Remove the disc from

GENERAL INSTALLATION APPROACH:
1)Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed
(i.e.: what components, VCP, Tuner, RF Modulator/external amp,
remote headphones, DVD, etc.).
2)Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements
and hook ups.
3)Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of
mounting.
4)Prep the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain access to vehicle's wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting
wire harnesses will need to be located. If any access holes need to
be cut into the vehicle (headliner, other trim components etc.), this
should be done now as well.
5)Route the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary.
(Refer to the Wiring Diagrams on page 10 of this manual as well as
the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory
options being installed). Be sure that all wiring is protected from
sharp edges and is routed in such a manner that it will not be pinched
when all components and interior trim are fully installed. Be sure to
leave enough slack in the wiring at each component to allow working
room.
6)Remove all A/V system components from their packaging and place
them loosely in the vehicle at their respective locations.
7)Connect all components together (electrically) and verify proper operation of all system functions. Note: This is best done BEFORE
components have been permanently mounted.
8)After verifying proper operation of the system, proceed to mount each
of the components.
9)When all components are mounted, recheck the entire system again
to ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected improperly during final installation.

Notes :The MMD10 video system is only intended for an overhead,
drop down installation. It is not intended for seat back or any other
type of mounting. The hinging mechanism is designed for horizontal,
drop down use only.
VEHICLE PREPARATION:
1)Locate an accessory power source (+12v when key is in the ACC.
and run positions, and 0v when key is off). Generally, this wire can
be found at the ignition switch or fuse-box.
2)The mounting method and location will vary from vehicle to vehicle,
so this manual will only focus on the installation of the video monitor
and related console accessories.
3)Generally, the best location for the video monitor is where the vehicle's
factory dome light is installed. The monitor should be located in
such a manner that it can be comfortably viewed by rear seat passengers. NEVER INSTALL THE MONITOR IN A PLACE WITHIN THE
DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS, BUT IT IS
ALSO ILLEGAL.
4)Once the mounting location of the monitor has been determined,
there may be additional preparation work necessary, depending on
the vehicle structure and installation method. Some of the steps
that may be required are:
A)Removal of the vehicle's dome light.
B)The headliner may need to be trimmed.
