WARNING

Upon installation of this monitor/media player (“unit”) into a vehicle, the driver of the vehicle

must not operate this unit by watching videos or playing video games while driving.
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or
property damage.

Several states prohibit the installation of monitors/media players if the screen is visible

from the driver’s seat. If you reside in a jurisdiction which has enacted such a law, this
unit must not be installed so that the screen is visible from the driver’s seat. When
installing this unit in the front console/dashboard, the unit must be positioned so that it is
facing the front passenger seat only. Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver
distraction which could result in serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or
persons outside the vehicle and/or property damage.

This unit is designed so that it may be operated only when the vehicle is in “Park” and the

parking brake is fully engaged. To this end, this unit includes a parking brake lock-out
feature which prohibits the unit from operating if the vehicle is not in “Park” and/or the
parking brake is not fully engaged. When installing this unit, the installer must connect
the parking brake detect wire to the parking brake mechanism in order to make the
parking brake lock-out feature operable. DO NOT simply ground the parking brake detect
wire to a metal portion of the vehicle. Failure to properly install the parking brake lock­out feature could lead to driver distraction which could result in serious injury or death to
the driver’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or property damage.

Once the parking brake lock-out feature is installed, the owner/user must not attempt to

disrupt/neutralize the parking brake lock-out feature by (a) partially engaging the parking
brake and/or (b) purchasing/using any device or unit designed to send necessary brake
signals to the unit. Failure to follow these instructions could lead to driver distraction
which could result in serious injury or death to the driver’s occupants or persons outside
the vehicle and/or property damage.

When operating this unit, keep the unit’s volume level low enough so that the vehicle’s

occupants can hear traffic-related sounds such as police and emergency vehicles.
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or
property damage.
