OPERATING
•Only use the system when the vehicle is started for optimal
performance and to maintain battery life.
•If the Family Entertainment System (FES) is playing and the ignition
is turned OFF, the system will turn off, and suspend playback. When
the ignition is turned on again, playback will begin from the last

•DVDs are formatted by regions. This DVD system can only play region
1 DVDs (DVDs manufactured for U.S. and Canada).
This unit is designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75

incompatibility, certain recordable and re-recordable compact
discs may not function correctly when used in Ford DVD/CD
players. Irregular shaped discs, discs with a scratch protection
film attached, and discs with homemade paper (adhesive) labels
should not be inserted into the player. The label may peel and
cause the disc to become jammed. It is recommended that

rather than adhesive labels. Ball point pens may damage discs.
Please contact your dealer for further information.

after market radio.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Read all the safety and operating instructions before operating the
system and retain for future reference.
•Do not attempt to service, repair or modify the Family Entertainment
DVD System. See your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer.
•Do not insert foreign objects into the DVD compartment.
The front glass on the flip-down liquid crystal display (LCD) 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.
Do not expose the flip-down liquid crystal display (LCD) to direct

cables when not in use.
•Avoid touching auxiliary input jacks with your fingers. Do not blow on
them or allow them to get wet or dirty.
•Do not clean any part of the DVD player with benzene, paint thinner
or any other solvent.
Whenever a warning notice is received, the radio volume will be
lowered to a volume that will allow the tones to be heard. The
radio volume will return to the previous level after the warning
notice is complete.

Care and service of the DVD player
Environmental extremes
DVD players that are subjected to harsh environmental conditions may
be damaged or perform at less than optimal capability. To avoid these
outcomes, whenever possible avoid exposing your DVD player to:
•extremely hot or cold temperatures.
•direct sunlight.
•high humidity.
•a dusty environment.
•locations where strong magnetic fields are generated.
Temperature extremes
When the vehicle is parked under direct sunlight or in an extremely cold
place for a long period of time, wait until the cabin temperature of the
vehicle is at normal temperature before operating the system.
Humidity and moisture condensation
Moisture in the air will condense in the DVD player under extremely
humid conditions or when moving from a cold to a warm location. If
moisture condensation occurs, do not insert a CD or DVD into the
player. If one is already in the player, remove it and turn the DVD player
ON to dry the moisture before inserting a DVD. This could take an hour
or more depending on the amount of moisture.
