Installation of overhead products requires careful planning and preparation� 
Be extremely careful when working on a vehicle with side curtain air bags� 
Do not route wires near any portion of the side curtain air bag assemblies� 
This includes anchor points in A, B, C or D pillars of the vehicle� Routing wires 
in these areas or running wires by the side curtain air bags can prevent the 
side curtain air bag from fully deploying which can result in personal injury 
to vehicle occupants� If you have any question regarding routing in a vehicle, 
please contact Audiovox Technical support at 1-800-225-6074�

An LCD panel and/or video monitor may be installed in a motor vehicle and 
visible to the driver only if the LCD panel or video monitor is used for vehicle 
information, system control, rear or side observation or navigation� If the 
LCD panel or video monitor is used for television reception, video or DVD 
play, the LCD panel or video monitor must be installed so that these features 
will only function when the vehicle is in “park” or when the vehicle’s parking 
brake is applied�

When connecting power and ground in a mobile video installation, insure 
that the ACC  wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle’s 
ACC wiring� Failure to do so can result in damage to the vehicle if a short 
circuit develops between the vehicle connection point and the mobile video 
product�

An LCD panel and/or video monitor used for television reception, video or 
DVD play that operates when the vehicle is in gear or when the parking 
brake is not applied must be installed to the rear of the driver seat where it 
will not be visible, directly or indirectly, to the operator of the motor vehicle�

WaRnInGS

•  Do not use any solvents or cleaning materials when cleaning the video 

monitor�

•  Do not use any abrasive cleaners, they may scratch the screen�
•  Use only lightly dampened lint free cloth to wipe the screen if it is dirty�
•  Lock the LCD screen in fully closed position when not in use�
•  Before putting on headphones, always adjust the volume setting to OFF or 

lowest position�

•  Remember to leave the dome light switch in the off or auto position when 

the vehicle  is unattended, as the dome lights, if left on, can drain the 
vehicle battery�

•  Do not put pressure on the screen�
•  Caution children to avoid touching or scratching the screen, as it may 

become dirty or damaged�

Safety Precautions

For safety reasons, when changing video media, it is recommended that 
the vehicle is not in motion, and that you do not allow children to unfasten 
seat-belts to change video media or make any adjustments to the system� 
System adjustments can be accomplished using the remote control, while 
seat-belts remain fastened� Enjoy your AUDIOVOX entertainment system but 
remember that the safety of all passengers remains the number one priority�
