CONGRATULATIONS

The HR7012 Rear Seat Video Headrest System has two factory matched replacement headrests with 7” video monitors in each headrest. The monitors are hereafter referred to in this manual as “M1” and “M2”

The M1 and M2 monitors are equipped with easy to use front panel controls and auxiliary input connection options.

The system allows the users to watch the same DVD or video source on both monitors simultaneously or allows individual viewing of content.

The HR7012 monitor is available in three models, HR7012MA, HR7012D and HR7012S. These three models can be congured to allow six possible combinations, which are detailed on pages 3 and 4. Below are the details for each monitor:

HR7012MA: is a 7” LCD monitor with a built-in DVD player that allows the user to select from several sources (DVD/ USB, M1 (M2), A/V-IN, AUX MEDIA, and GAME* Source). The monitor has a built-in infrared audio transmitter channel.

HR7012S: is a 7” LCD monitor (No DVD) that allows the user to select from several sources (M1 (M2), A/V-IN, AUX, and GAME* Source). The monitor has a built-in infrared audio transmitter channel.

HR7012D: is a 7” LCD monitor with a built-in DVD player that allows the user to select from several sources (DVD/USB, HDMI/MHL, M1 (M2), A/VIN, and GAME* Source). The monitor has a built-in infrared audio transmitter channel.

* GAME Optional

Thank you for purchasing the HR7012 Rear Seat Video Headrest System. Before operating this system read this manual thoroughly and retain it for future reference.

The HR7012 Rear Seat Video Headrest System is set up and adjusted with easy to use menus that are accessed using the front panel controls or the remote controls.

The two-channel wireless Infrared (IR) headphones have an A-B switch that allow the users to select the audio from either M1 on “CH A” or M2 on ”CH B”

• The M1 monitor will only respond to the remote control when the Monitor Select “M1” button is pressed.

• The M2 monitor will only respond to the remote control when the Monitor Select “M2” button is pressed.

(Optional wired headphones allow the user to listen to audio from the system through the 1/8” jack located on the front of the HR7012MA and HR7012S. The HR7012D does not have a wired headphone jack)

Enjoy your entertainment system but remember that the safety of all passengers remains the number one priority.

CAUTION

Always run the vehicle’s engine while using the HR7012 Rear Seat Video Headrest System. Using this system without running the engine can result in battery drainage.

Important Notice
