1. Before installing your LCD Monitor system, please read the instructions carefully.
2. Retain this manual for future reference.
3. Do not use any chemical solvent, cleaning agent or corrosive detergent to clean
away dirt on the surface of the screen. Doing so may cause irreversible damage to the surface of the LCD screen. To clean off dirt or fingerprints, it is recommended that a soft-damp lens cleaning cloth be used.

the unit.
5. Install the unit in a dry location, avoid condensation.
6. Ensure the plugs are properly plugged in before operating the unit.

out from the enclosure. If you come into contact, flush and clean the affected
areas with plenty of water. Seek medical attention immediately.

1. Unplug the DIN cable from the monitor.
2. Connect the LCD screen’s 8-pin DIN plug into
the 8-pin DIN plug of the headrest.
NNOOTTEE::
When assembling the cable, match the arrows at
each end of the connector.
NNOOTTEE::
Feed and orient the connector assembly behind
the shroud mount in the lower right hand corner. You
may have to feed some of the DIN cable up into the
headrest to accomplish this positioning.
3. Position the monitor over the mounting shroud
and apply even pressure to each corner of the monitor until the internal clips lock the monitor in
place.
NNOOTTEE::
Do not press on the LCD screen as this will dam-
age the screen.
4. Tape the end of the DIN plug to prevent damage to the pins. Then feed this cable from the hollow post of the headrest down through the seat
back and connect it to the cable from the DVD player.
NNOOTTEE::
Ensure the cable does not entangle or interfere
with the seat positioning/adjusting mechanism.
