IMPORTANT NOTICES

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.

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.

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.

Please be advised that the wireless FM modulator will perform well in 
most applications. However, in certain applications the quality of the 
wireless signal may be less than optimal, resulting in static or strong 
local station bleed through.
