wiring requires special technical skills and experience. If you do not feel
comfortable doing the installation, please consult with your local car audio
shop or installation professional for instructions or assistance, if neces­sary.

Carefully remove the factory stereo and display out of the dash cavity with
proper tools.

It may be necessary to disconnect items surrounding the stereo and display
to remove them and gain access to the back of the stereo to make your
connections. Make sure to reconnect them back during the reassembly.

1.4 Safety Guidelines & Appropriate Use

By using VLine you agree:

• to operate VLine only when there are safe driving conditions;

• to follow any applicable state and traffic laws;

• to keep an eye on the road at all time while driving;

• do not attempt to play video (such as YouTube) on a display while the
vehicle is in motion;

• do not use VLine without running the engine for the extended period of
time as it can drain the battery.

Do not use Vline in a manner that would distract the driver or that may
otherwise cause injury or death to vehicle occupants or bystanders.

IT IS ILLEGAL IN MOST STATES OF THE UNITED STATES AND MAY BE ILLEGAL
IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS FOR ANY TELEVISION OR OTHER VIDEO DISPLAY,
STREAM, TRANSMISSION OR BROADCAST TO BE VISIBLE TO THE DRIVER
WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. YOU AGREE NOT TO USE ANY VISUAL
COMPONENT OF VLine WHILE IN CONTROL OF A MOVING VEHICLE WHERE
DOING SO WOULD BE ILLEGAL OR DANGEROUS TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS OR

THE PARKING BRAKE BEFORE VIEWING ANY VIDEO DISPLAYS, STREAMS,
TRANSMISSION, OR BROADCAST AVAILABLE THROUGH VLINE.

Step 2 - Connect VLine interface cable to factory headunit

Locate the 18-pin and 32-pin connectors behind the stereo headunit and
unplug them. Plug in supplied interface cable (MCFNISK). Reconnect back
what was disconnected from the rear of the stereo into the female plugs of
the supplied MCFNISK interface cable.

Locate the 12-pin port behind the stereo headunit. If there is already

connector plugged in, unplug it and plug MCFNISK 12-pin connector
instead. Leave what was unplugged from the rear of the stereo free and

disconnected. It will not be used.

*Please note that the factory XM/SAT will be disabled and no longer
function. The VLINE will take its place and emulate its functions.

Step 1 - Install stereo touchscreen overlay

Take out the stereo screen and disconnect it from the 24-pin factory connect­or. Mark this connector for yourself as you will need to replug it back to VLine
video cable.

Take the screen assembly to the comfortable place where you can install the
touchscreen overlay. We recommend using a table. Refer to the manual that
came with your touchscreen overlay package (V-NISKRTH).

6

Step 3 - Connect VLine video cable to factory display

Take stereo display with already installed touchscreen overlay (step 1).

Locate 24-pin port at the rear of the display and plug in the supplied video
cable (VNISK). Reconnect factory 24-pin connector back to VNISK female
plug of the supplied interface cable.

Step 4 - Connecting to VLine

Connect the MCFNISK and VNISK cables to the appropriate ports of VLine
module You will connect V-TOUCH display cable, with TSB1 board attached,

to the connector labeled “TOUCH” on the VAUX cable of GPS antenna
assembly (see next page).

Carefully route all VLine cables (VNISK, MCFNISK, V-TOUCH) to the glove

compartment, where you will connect them to VLine. Be extra carefull with V­TOUCH cable!

7

Step 5 - Routing the GPS Antenna

The GPS antenna package consists of the antenna connected to VAUX
cable. It also comes with the double-sided tape.

It can be mounted on the top of the dashboard or outside of the vehicle.
We recommend mounting it inside of the vehicle on the passenger side,

on top of the dashboard (see below). Do not leave GPS antenna inside of
the glove compartment, as it can affect the reception of GPS signal.

Plug the VAUX cable into the port labeled CAMERA AV1 on the VLine.

Plug the V-TOUCH cable, with TSB1 board attached, to the connector
labeled “TOUCH” on the VAUX cable with GPS antenna.

Step 6 - Routing the Microphone

Route the microphone to a location where it will be able to pick up voice

clearly. We recommend to mount MIC nearby the rear view mirror but not

directly
on windshield glass. Avoid sticking to a hard surface as it will pick up more
noise.

Plug the microphone into the MIC port of the VLine module

Step 7 - Mounting the VLine Module

Mount the module in a location free of any moving parts. We strongly re­commend mounting the module in an easily accessible location such as the
glove compartment . It will provide easy access to the USB ports of VLine.

Securely mount and install VLine module in a location free from heat,
humidity, moving parts, or direct sunlight. Beware of hot-air flow from your
vehicle’s climate control system. The module should be secured in a suitable
location, free of sharp metal edges, using double-sided tape, Velcro, or wire
ties. The module’s operating temperature range is -30°C to +70°C (-24°F to
+158°F)
