Inputs and outputs
The radio cassette player receives a mute signal from the telephone system if a call is received, when the call finishes
the mute is removed and the system resumes play. Inputs are also received from the steering wheel control system
(mid line and high line sytems). When the system is turned on, the high line systems radio cassette player:
lsends a 'power on enable' to the power amplifier
lsends an 'enable' signal to the radio headphone amplifiers.
On the high line system the radio cassette player also sends and receives signals from the CD-autochanger and rear
headphone amplifiers (if fitted). On high line systems the radio cassette player sends audio signals to the power
amplifier.
Remote radio steering wheel controls (midline and high line systems)
The remote radio control switch is located on the LH side of the steering wheel and is secured with two screws. The
wiring from the remote radio control switch plugs in to a connector that is part of the steering wheel rotary coupler.
Operation of the remote radio control switches allow the driver to control the ICE without releasing the steering wheel.

Aerial
On base and midline ICE systems an AM/FM aerial is built-in to the side window glass on the RH side of the vehicle.
An amplifier is located on the frame above the rear side widow behind the rear quarter trim, and is secured (and
earthed) with one bolt. Coaxial leads connect the aerial to the aerial amplifier and radio cassette. Power is supplied
from the auxilary relay in the engine compartment fuse box, through a fuse in the passenger compartment fusebox to
the amplifier.
On high line ICE systems two amplified aerials are built-in to the side window glass of the vehicle. The two aerials are
an AM/FM aerial on the RH side, and an FM aerial on the LH side. The amplifier for each aerial are located on the
frame above each rear side widow behind the rear quarter trim, and are each secured (and earthed) with one bolt.
Amplified aerials improve the reception quality, the FM aerial gives improved reception in areas of poor signal
(diversity) conditions in urban areas. A Power feed from the radio cassette player is connected to the amplified aerials,
power is available when the cassette player is operating. The aerials are connected to the radio cassette player by
two coaxial cables, a small plug connects the FM only aerial, a larger plug connects the AM/FM aerial.
Power amplifier (high line system)
The amplifier is located on a bracket under the LH front seat and is secured with three screws and washers. The
amplifier receives inputs from the radio, radio cassette player or (via the radio cassette player) the CD-autochanger.
Power for the amplifier is supplied from the passenger compartment fuse box. The amplifier will power up when an
enable logic signal is sent from the radio cassette, this signal is sent by the radio cassette when it is turned on.
CD-autochanger (high line system)
A CD-autochanger is located under the RH front seat, the unit is secured to brackets in the floor with four screws and
washers. A tray is used to hold each compact disk (CD), the loaded tray is then inserted in a magazine, the magazine
holds six trays and is then inserted into the CD-autochanger. A sliding cover protects the internal components of the
CD-autochanger from dirt entry through the magazine opening. An eject button located on the front of the CD-
autochanger can be used to release the magazine from the CD-autochanger. The sliding cover has to be opened
manually before the magazine eject button is pressed. The operation of the CD-autochanger is controlled by inputs
from the radio cassette, the control inputs can be from the radio cassette buttons, the remote radio controls or the rear
radio headphone amplifiers if they are fitted. The output from the CD-autochanger are connected to the radio cassette
player. The radio cassette player sends the outputs to the power amplifier. Power is supplied to the CD-autochanger
by a feed from the radio cassette player.
Radio headphone amplifiers (high line system)
The rear mounted radio headphone amplifiers are located in the lower rear quarter trim casing and are held in position
by a clip on the side of the headphone amplifier. Mode and function buttons are located on a control panel, the mode
button allows each of the rear seat passengers to independently select from the radio, tape or CD-autochanger. The
driver and the rear seat passengers can each listen to any of the audio devices they select. However the radio
cassette setting has overall priority e.g:
lIf the radio cassette is using a radio wave band (AM or FM), the headphone user will be able to select the cassette
tracks or CD-autochanger. The user will be able to listen to same radio band that is selected on the radio
cassette, but will not be able to change the station selected.
lIf the radio cassette has CD-autochanger selected, the headphone amplifiers will allow listening to the compact
disk but will not allow track changes. The headphone user will be able to select on all of the radio bands or
cassette tracks.
lIf the radio cassette has tape selected, the headphone amplifiers will allow listening to the tape but will not allow
track changes. The headphone user will be able to select all radio bands or CD's on the CD-autochanger.
If one headphone amplifier unit has control of the tape player, CD or radio, the other headphone amplifier will be able
to listen and be able to change tape tracks or radio bands. Other buttons allow a search seek function of radio band
or compact disk track, reversal of the tape, radio station and volume adjustment depending on the current operating
mode. If one radio headphone amplifier has control of the radio, tape or CD autochanger the other radio headphone
amplifier is able to change the track or radio band selected. A headphone socket with a glow ring is located on the
control panel. When a headphone is turned on , a 'headphone-module active' signal is sent to the radio cassette
player. The design incorporates panel illumination and a glow-ring to locate the socket in low light conditions. To
control the audio output from the radio headphone amplifiers, signals are sent to and received from the radio cassette
player.

Description
General
The DVD entertainment system can be fitted by Land Rover Special Vehicles as an original equipment system on the
Adventurer model or can be supplied as an accessory for fitment by the dealer. The system can be fitted to all
Discovery Series II models.
NOTE: The DVD system cannot be fitted to vehicles fitted with a Visteon single slot CD head unit.
The fitment of the system to vehicles manufactured before 2002 model year requires a different wiring harness and
connector plugs to vehicles from 2002 model year. Full details of components required for specific vehicles is
contained in the DVD System Accessory fitting instructions (Part No. STC 61947/61946).
The system comprises a main wiring harness, a lower wiring harness, CD switch box with integral noise filter, CD
switch harness, remote control handset and an overhead console containing the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) monitor
and Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) player.
The system can play DVD films and display them on the LCD screen. The DVD audio can be played over the vehicle
audio speaker system or on headphones connected directly to the overhead console. The system can also function
as a second CD player. Rear seat occupants can listen to a CD in the overhead console via headphones, whilst the
remaining vehicle occupants can listen to CD's played from the CD autochanger in the normal way.

86-6-18 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The console unit has three buttons which allow for minimum operation of the unit without using the handset:
lThe Stop/Eject button stops playback when pressed – 'Stop' appears on the LCD monitor as confirmation.
When the playback is stopped, a further press of the Stop/Eject button ejects the DVD or CD from the DVD
console – 'Eject' appears on the LCD monitor as confirmation.
lThe Play/Pause button begins play of the DVD or CD when pressed – 'Play' appears on the LCD monitor as
confirmation.
During play, pressing the Play/Pause button temporarily pauses the play – 'Pause' appears on the LCD monitor
as confirmation. A second press of the Play/Pause button resumes the play.
lThe Speaker button switches the DVD or CD audio to play through the vehicle audio speakers system. When the
CD is selected on the ICE head unit in the fascia, pressing the button allows the DVD or CD audio to play through
the vehicle audio speakers – 'Speaker On' appears on the LCD monitor. A second press of the button prevents
the DVD or CD audio playing through the vehicle audio speakers – 'Speaker Off' appears on the LCD monitor.
NOTE: These functions are also available from buttons on the remote handset.
Two sockets are provided on the left hand side of the unit and one socket on the right hand side of the unit for the use
of headphones with the overhead console unit. This allows the three occupants of the 2nd row seats to listen to the
DVD output using headphones. Occupants of the 3rd row seats can also listen to the DVD output using headphones
connected into the two radio/headphone amplifier units.
The console has three Phono sockets which allow for the use of an auxiliary video unit or video games console to be
connected to the system and use the LCD monitor for display. The sockets are colour coded for correct auxiliary input
connection as follows:
lRED – Right channel audio input
lWHITE – Left channel audio input
lYELLOW – Video input.
A slot is provided on the right hand side of the console for insertion of a DVD or CD into the console unit. The DVD
or CD can be inserted into the slot with the label side facing upwards. The DVD or CD is ejected from the slot when
the Stop/Eject button is pressed.
When the LCD monitor is in the lowered position, an infra-red receiver is exposed and receives transmitted signals
from the remote control handset. The receiver is located adjacent to the status LED which is illuminated when the
system is active.
The DVD player in the overhead console has an auto eject feature to protect the DVD or CD in the unit from damage
due to excessive heat. The status LED will flash to alert the user to this condition. If the temperature exceeds 70°C
(158°F), the DVD system automatically ejects the DVD or CD and shuts down, preventing further operation. When
the temperature in the vehicle has returned to 64°C (147°F) or less, press the 'Power' button on the handset or open
the LCD monitor to switch on the system.
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Monitor
