1. Remove the factory headrests (Detailed instructions can be found in the
vehicle’s service manual.
2. Starting with the driver’s side headrest (Monitor A) insert the mini-din
connectors into the driver side headrest post guides.
3. Slowly push the cables into the seat. If an obstruction is encountered, pull
back slightly on the cable and rotate before continuing. Route the cables so
that they exit the bottom of the seatback.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the passenger’s side headrest (Monitor B).

1. Place the A/V Control Module in a well protected area under a seat or behind
a panel.
2. Insert the Monitor's system connector cables into the A/V Control Module.
These connectors will click and lock into place when fully inserted.
3. Route the monitor and DVD cables from each headrest towards the A/V Control
Module. If additional length is necessary use the available cable extensions.
NOTE: The available extensions are not interchangeable the cable
connector colors must match.
4. Connect these cables from the driver side headrest (Monitor A) to the
DRIVER MONITOR (Monitor A) the A/V Control Module.
5. Connect these cables from the passenger side headrest (Monitor B) to the
PASSENGER MONITOR (Monitor B) on the A/V Control Module.
6. Connect the wireless FM modulator antenna to the connector jack on the
side of the A/V control Module labeled ANT.
7. Extend and route the FM modulator antenna under the carpet or
behind a panel ensuring to avoid any sharp metal edges or moving
parts. For best results do not coil or bundle the FM modulator antenna.
NOTE: If the vehicle has an aftermarket radio that accepts RCA auxiliary inputs
or the use of a wireless FM modulator is not desired, simply remove the modulator
antenna and connect RCAs to the Driver Monitor A/V Output (located on the side of
the A/V control module) and route them to the desired component.
8. Plug the power harness into the A/V control module and connect the power
wire leads to 12V+ and 12V ground. The wires are color coded as follows:
Red = ACC Power, Yellow = Constant Power, Black = Ground, Green =
Parking brake.

Menu. Once the desired item has been highlighted, press the “MENU” button
until the desired setting is achieved.
IR CHANNEL – This function changes the IR channel that the monitor transmits
from: Ch.‘A’, Ch.‘B’ or ‘OFF’
NOTE: The driver’s side monitor is factory preset to ‘A’ and the passenger side monitor
is factory preset to ‘B’. DO NOT set both monitors to the same IR channel, as this causes
audible interference through the IR headphones.
SCREEN - Sets the power-up mode for the monitor when system power is turned
on.
• “AUTO” - While in this mode the monitor will resume the last state it
was in when the system power was last turned off.
• “ON” - When system power is turned on, the monitor will always turn
on.
• “OFF” - When system power is turned on, the monitor will always
remain off. The monitor must be turned on manually using the power
button on the monitor or remote.
DVD MODE - Assigns the headrest identity to ensure proper source identication
between Driver DVD, Passenger DVD, Ext. Aux, and Aux. via the on-screen
display (OSD).
NOTE: The dual DVD headrest system’s default setting for the driver’s side is set to
‘Monitor 1’ and ‘Monitor 2’ for the passenger side. The single DVD headrest system’s
default setting for the driver’s side is set to ‘DS’ and ‘PS’ for the passenger side. Do not
set both screens to Monitor 1 / DS or Monitor 2 / PS. These settings must be observed in
order to utilize the integrated FM modulator functions properly.
EXIT - Exits the sub-menu.

- The distance may vary according to the brightness of ambient light.
- If the remote is not used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to prevent
possible damage from battery leakage and/or corrosion.
- DO NOT place any objects between the remote control unit and the sensor on the RT System.
- DO NOT use the remote control unit while simultaneously operating a remote control unit
from another device. They may interfere with each other resulting in improper operation.
- Depending on usage, the batteries in the remote control should normally last for about one
year. If the remote control isn’t working, replace the batteries with new batteries and try
again.
- DO NOT mix old batteries with used ones.
- DO NOT mix rechargeable batteries with non-rechargeable batteries.
- Incorrect usage of batteries may cause them to leak, corrode or explode.
- If leakage from the batteries occur, properly clean the battery compartment before attempting
to install new batteries.
- Make sure the IR sensor is not obstructed by any objects.
