Important Notice

It is unlawful in most jurisdictions for a person to drive a motor vehicle which is equipped with a television viewer or screen that is located in the motor vehicle at any point forward of the back of the driver’s seat, or that is visible, directly or indirectly , to the driver while operating the vehicle. In the interest of safety, the PROVD8 should never be installed where it will be visible, directly or indirectly , by the operator of the motor vehicle.

Warnings

Do not use any solvents or cleaning materials when cleaning the video monitor. Do not use any abrasive cleaners, they may scratch the screen. Use only a lightly dampened lint free cloth to wipe the screen if it is dirty. Lock the LCD screen in the fully closed position when not in use. Before putting on headphones always adjust the volume setting to the lowest position. Remember to leave the dome light switch in the off or auto positions when the vehicle is unattended, as the dome lights, if left on, can drain the vehicle’s battery . Do not put pressure on the screen. Caution children to avoid touching or scratching the screen, as it may become dirty or damaged.

Television Reception

This entertainment system is designed primarily for viewing prerecorded movies or playing video games. Television reception in a moving vehicle will be limited and in some areas will not be possible due to weak and variable signal strength. T elevision viewing in a stationary vehicle will result in an improvement, but may still be marginal due to signal strength. The quality of the picture will not be consistent with home TV reception. Reception may be affected by weather and distance from TV station. A weak signal may cause the picture to roll, be snowy, or cause some color loss.

Congratulations on your purchase of the Audiovox PROVD8 Overhead TV/Monitor with DVD Player. The PROVD8 has been designed to give you and your family many years of video entertainment in the mobile environment. Please read the directions that follow to familiarize yourself with the product and to ensure that you obtain the best results from your equipment. Please NOTE: Installation options vary, see the individual owner’s manuals for each component in your system to obtain a full understanding of each component’s operation.

Safety Precaution

For safety reasons, when changing video media it is recommended that the vehicle is not in motion, and that you do not allow children to unfasten seat-belts to change video media or make any adjustments to the system. System adjustments can be accomplished using the remote control unit, while seat-belts remain fastened. Enjoy your Audiovox entertainment system but remember-safety of all passengers remains the number one priority .
