Important Notice

An LCD panel and/or video monitor may be installed in a motor vehicle and visible 
to the driver 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.

An LCD panel 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's seat where it will not be visible, directly 
or indirectly, to the operator of the motor vehicle.

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 any 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 questions regarding wire routing 
in a vehicle, please contact Audiovox Technical Support at 1-800-225-6074.

When connecting power and ground in a mobile video installation ensure that 
the ACC wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle 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.
