to Ford Motor Company engineering requirements. Contact an
authorized Ford dealer for the manufacturer’s limited warranty details,
and request a copy of the Ford Licensed Accessories product limited
warranty from the accessory manufacturer.
For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
•When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
Compliance Certification label). Ask an authorized dealer for specific
weight information.
•The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems that are equipped with radio transmitters, for
example, two-way radios, telephones and theft alarms. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulations and should be
installed only by an authorized dealer.
•An authorized dealer needs to install mobile communications systems.
Improper installation may harm the operation of your vehicle,
particularly if the manufacturer did not design the mobile
communication system specifically for automotive use.
•If you or an authorized Ford dealer add any non-Ford custom
electrical or electronic accessories or components to your vehicle, you
may adversely affect battery performance and durability. In addition,
you may also adversely affect the performance of other electrical
systems in the vehicle.

Important Notice
It is unlawful in most jurisdictions for a person to drive a motor vehicle
which is equipped with a television viewer or screen that is located in
the motor vehicle at any point forward of the back of the driver’s seat, or
that is visible, directly or indirectly, to the driver while operating your
vehicle. In the interest of safety, do not install the unit where it is visible,
directly or indirectly, by the operator of the motor vehicle. If your vehicle
is equipped with a wireless rear seat audio system or any other wireless
infrared device, power the system off in order to operate the DVD
headrest system. If the system is on, the two systems may interfere with
each other canceling out or creating undesirable audio through the
wireless headphones.
Safety Precaution
For safety reasons:
•Do not change discs while your vehicle is moving.
•Do not allow children to unfasten their safety belts to change discs or
make changes to the system.
•Make changes with the remote control, while safety belts remain
fastened.
Enjoy your entertainment system, but remember that safety of your
passengers is the highest priority.
Wireless Headphones
This unit includes a built-in dual channel infrared transmitter for use
with your wireless headphones. You can change headphone volume using
the individual controls on each headset. To use wireless headphones
effectively, you must maintain line-of-sight between headphones and
transmitter. Allowing obstructions to come between headphone and
transmitter, or body motions that allow the user to conceal the
headphone from the transmitter (like reaching or bending), adversely
affect audio performance. Infrared transmission, like visible light, travels
only in a straight line.

Wired Headphones
You can use any standard stereo headphones by plugging them into the
1/8–inch (3.5 millimeter) headphone jack on each of the headrest DVD
systems. Remove and save the protective plastic cover to access the
jacks. Remember to replace the cover when the jacks are not in use.
A/V Input
You can connect an external audio/video device that uses common RCA
interface cables to the Ford DVD system, such as a video game device or
VCR. Connect the device RCA cables to the AV RCA INPUT jacks
according to color: yellow for video, red for right audio and white for left
audio. The signal from the external audio/video source overrides other
video sources for that monitor.
Wireless FM Transmitter
Your device has an internal FM transmitter. This allows you to listen to
the DVD player audio signal by tuning your vehicle FM radio to a radio
frequency that you select, then accessing the SOUND-AROUND feature
by using the remote control. SOUND-AROUND allows the user to choose
from a number of pre-programmed frequencies to play back the rear-seat
entertainment system audio over the radio. When you engage
SOUND-AROUND, as long as the DVD player is active, it adversely
affects the FM radio reception of other stations, especially neighboring
stations nearest to whichever station is in use for the DVD player.
Performance of SOUND-AROUND varies based on geographic location.
You may need to change the SOUND-AROUND frequency periodically
when travelling long distances. This helps maintain the best performance
when listening to DVD system content over the radio. Audio heard
through wireless headphones remains unaffected by SOUND-AROUND.
There may also be a reduction in AM radio performance as well. AM and
FM radio performance can be expected to return to normal when the
DVD system is turned off.
How to use the FM Transmitter
1. Switch on the system and place a disc in Monitor A.
2. Point the remote control at the monitor, and then press DVD A.
3. PressSOUND AROUND ON/OFFto turn FM transmission off and
on.
4. Select a radio frequency (88.3, 88.7, 89.1, 89.5, 89.9, and 90.3MHz)
by pressingSOUND AROUND SELECT.
5. Select a frequency, and then tune your radio to the corresponding
frequency. Try each station frequency until you achieve a clear audio
signal.
