OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
in-VEHICLE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM
P/N: 08A23-2E1 -010
WELCOME
Your in-VEHICLE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM is designed to give you and your family years of enjoyment. You can watch your
favorite DVD-Video or Video-CD movies, you can listen to your favorite Audio-CD or MP3 albums, or plug-and-play a variety of
standard video games. Please review these Operating Instructions to become familiar with the entertainment system's features
and operation. Pay particular attention to the safety precautions for use of a video player in a vehicle. For additional information
about your in-VEHICLE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM please contact your dealer.
PRECAUTIONS
This video display is intended for rear seat passenger viewing
only - out of the driver's view. Installation within the
driver's view is illegal in most states, provinces, and countries,
and may lead to driver distraction.
Please be sure to review the owner's manuals, consumer information, and precaution booklets for all video games and video
equipment that you use as auxiliary inputs for your in-VEHICLE
ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM.
Do not insert foreign objects into the DVD Player disc slot.
Do not operate video games and video equipment if the power
cords or cables are broken, split, or damaged.
WARNING! The front glass on the liquid crystal display may
break when hit with a hard surface. If the glass breaks,
do not touch the liquid crystalline material. In case of contact
with skin, wash immediately with soap and water.
Avoid touching auxiliary input jacks with your fingers. Do not
blow on them or allow them to get wet or dirty.
CAUTION: Do not expose the liquid crystal display to direct
sunlight or intense ultraviolet rays for extensive time periods.
Ultraviolet rays deteriorate the liquid crystal.
Do not clean any part of the unit with benzene, paint thinner, or
any other solvent.
Electrical Cautions and Warnings

LCD Screen, Remote Control, or FM Modulator.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of shock, do not remove the
DVD Player, LCD Screen, Remote Control, or FM Modulator
cover. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
A lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product enclosure.
The voltage may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk
of electric shock.
An exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance (DVD).
WARNING! To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose
this product to rain or moisture.
CAUTION: The DVD Player, LCD Screen & FM Modulator
should be used with 12V DC only. To prevent electrical
shocks and fire hazards, DO NOT use any other power
source.
Handling Discs
To remove the disc from
its storage case, press
down on the centre of the
case and lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the
edges.
Always handle the disc by the
edges. Never touch the surface.
To remove fingermarks and
dust, use a soft cloth,
and wipe in a straight line from
the centre of the
disc to the circumference.
New discs may have some
roughness around the edges.
The unit may not work or the
sound may skip if such discs
are used.
Use a ball-point pen, etc. to
remove roughness from the
edge of the disc.
Note on Discs
Never stick labels on the surface of
the disc or mark the surface with a
pencil or pen.
Do not use any solvents such as
commercially available cleaners,
anti-static spray, or thinner to
clean discs.

GENERAL OPERATION NOTE
Your DVD Player supports many different types of media (CD-DA, DVD-Video, Video-CD, etc.). You will notice some slight differences
in operation between these types of media. THIS IS NORMAL. These differences occur because of the flexibility of these types of
media. At times you will have to read the instructions that appear on the video display screen when you insert a disc to determine
what to do. It is normal that not all buttons on the Remote Control will function for all types of media. Also some buttons will work with
one DVD-Video disc, but may work differently, or not at all, with a different DVD-Video disc.
For example, you may notice that you cannot use the number keys to select chapter on a DVD-Video, although you can use them to
select a track on an Audio disc. You may also notice that the Title button may function for some DVD-Video discs, but will either function differently or not at all on other DVD-Video discs. Furthermore, you may notice that as some DVD-Video discs are recorded with
Multiple Angles and some are not, the Angle button will not work for all DVD-Video discs. The angle button has no function on any
other media type beside DVD-Video.
The DVD player is also programmed to shut off when ever the vehicle is turned off. To resume playing a disc, simply push POWER on
the DVD player or PWR on the remote control.

3.13. MP3 Play
MP3 On Screen Display
When you are playing a MP3 CD, you will see the name of the folder on the top line of the screen. The names of the songs will be
shown in the columns underneath.
MP3 Playing Order
When selected for play, Folder Selecting, or Track Selecting, files and folders are accessed in
order in which they were written to the CD. Because of this, the order in which they are
expected to be played may not match the order in which they are actually played. For example, a medium with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to the Folder Selecting, or Track
Selecting as shown on the picture.
Refer to Section 8. SPECIFICATIONS for additional details on MP3 file types and capabilities.
3.14. Automatic Power Off Feature
If the DVD Player is left idle for 5 minutes, it will power itself OFF to help increase system life.

The first Stop Mode can be referred to as Resume Stop Mode. In this mode, if you are
playing a disc, press the Stop button on the Remote Control once, and then press Play again,

6. Care of the DVD Player
Environmental Extremes
DVD Players subjected to harsh environmental conditions may be
damaged or operate at less than maximum performance. To prevent damage or poor performance of the DVD Player, remote
control, disc, monitor, or headphones, avoid leaving the vehicle:
in extremely hot or cold temperatures
in direct sunlight
in high humidity
in a dusty environment
on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibrations
Temperature Extremes
If the vehicle is parked in the sun or in an extremely cold place
for a long time, wait until the interior temperature is normalized
before operating the system.
Cleaning The DVD Player
Over time, particles will fall from the discs, and settle on the DVD
Player optical pick-up. This along with dust particles in the air,
can cause a dirty pick-up. This may cause your DVD Player to
not be able to read a disc, or for the disc to skip. A variety of
products are available at electronics stores to clean the DVD
Player pick-up. Use these products sparingly. If normal pick-up
cleaning procedures do not resolve the problem, have the system
checked by you automobile dealer.
-20-
Foreign Substances
Exercise care to prevent dirt and foreign objects from entering the
DVD Player disc slot. Be especially careful not to spill liquids of
any kind onto the DVD Player or any other component. If you
accidentally spill liquid onto any component, immediately turn the
component OFF (and remove batteries if applicable) and consult
your automobile dealer.
Cleaning the Display Screen
Clean the display screen with 70% isopropyl alcohol (rubbing
alcohol). Apply a small amount of cleaner to a soft cloth, and rub
gently until dirt or fingerprints are removed. To prevent damage
of electronics, do not spray the screen directly. Do not apply
excessive pressure while cleaning.
