US PATENT # D467, 234

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 the
vehicle. In the interest of safety, the LCM1502TV should
never be installed where it will be visible, directly or
indirectly, by the operator of the motor vehicle.
Please note that the state of Rhode Island forbids the
Installation of such a device in a motor vehicle.
Television Reception
This entertainment system is designed primarily for
viewing pre-recorded movies or playing video games.
Television reception in a moving vehicle will be limited and
in some areas will not be possible due to weak and
variable signal strength. Television viewing in a stationary
vehicle will result in an improvement, but may still be
marginal due to strength. The quality of the picture will not
be consistent with home TV reception. Reception may be
affected by the weather and distance from the TV station.
A weak signal may cause the picture to roll, be snowy, or
cause some color loss.
