mounting plate.
Install the monitor onto the
mounting plate, using at least six
of the screws provided.
Attach the monitor mounting plate
by screwing through the headliner
and into the existing roof supports
or the wood bracket you made (see
TIP below).
To lower the monitor, press the Monitor Release button and pull the monitor down.
It will drop freely to 45º.
To lower the monitor further, continue pulling down and the internal mechanism
will permit further movement and will hold the monitor in the position in which you
leave it.
To avoid accidental damage, we suggest you always close the monitor assembly
when it is not in use. To do so, rotate the monitor back to a 0º left-to-right position,
and push it up into the monitor base until you hear a “click.” Test that it is secured
by gently pulling down on monitor frame.
