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
VOD705 DL/VOD705 DLS/VOD705 DLP 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.
