Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a Vizualogic All-In-One System that will provide your family with many years of enjoyment. This sophisticated product provides video entertainment to rear seat passengers without altering the appearance of your vehicle’s original interior.

Reviewing this owner’s manual thoroughly prior to operation will provide you with the best performance and help explain the simple requirements for proper care.

Important Safety Information:

This video product is designed and intended for positioning in back seating areas of a vehicle where it cannot be viewed directly or indirectly by the driver and possibly cause him/her to be distracted from the task of operating the vehicle. Driver distraction is a major cause of accidents and for this reason many states specifically prohibit the viewing of motion video within view of the driver while the vehicle is in motion.

For safety reasons, when changing discs it is recommended that the vehicle be stationary, and that you do not allow children to unfasten seat belts to change discs or make any adjustments to the system. System adjustments can be safely accomplished using the remote control unit. Enjoy your Vizualogic System but remember the safety of all passengers is the number one priority.
