Disclaimer:
We are not responsible to damage, loss or injury caused from attempting or performing the DIY. Further, the navigation
and DVD lock while in motion was originally installed for safety reasons. By unlocking the navigation and DVD lock, we
are assuming that the navigation and DVD will be controlled and enjoyed by the passenger and not by the driver. As such,

About the Beat-Sonic NAV/DVD Bypass Module:
System: 100% Plug and play kit from Beat-Sonic for allowing use of factory features that would be locked out during
vehicle movement.
These plug and play module kits allow override of the lock out system equipped in your factory Navigation/DVD system
when the vehicle is in motion. Due to the fact that no modification is needed on the factory harness and this is 100%
plug and play, it is easily reversible to the original factory specs without showing any signs that this modification was
ever made.
The NDS kit provides automatic video in motion for the DVD player at all times. Navigation in motion is activated by the
steering wheel volume control buttons by pressing volume up (+), down (-), up (+), down (-) in sequence and at normal
cadence. While navigation in motion is activated, the navigation system will temporarily lose its GPS location and the
position indicator on the navigation screen will stop moving. By default, a programmable timer will reset the navigation
in motion to switch off after 3 minutes.
Navigation in motion can be switched off before the timeout period has expired by repeating the volume control button
sequence up (+), down (-), up (+), down (-).
This device is suitable for Lexus generation 7 and 8 navigation systems. The full time video in motion feature is
compatible with all navigation system features including Lexus App Suite, Enform App Suite and energy consumption
display found on hybrid models.
