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 then the vehicle is in ‘park’ or when the vehicle’s parking brake is applied.

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 adjustments to the system. System adjustments can be accomplished using the Remote Control while seat belts remain fastened. Enjoy your Audiovox entertainment system but remember safety of all passengers remains the number one priority.

TELEVISION RECEPTION

This entertainment system is designed primarily for viewing pre -recorded 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. Television 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 the weather and distance from the TV station. A weak signal may cause the picture to roll, be snowy, or cause some color loss.
