7. In case anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by  
qualified personnel prior to further operation.  
8. Only use the supplied power cord, and not use other power supplies even if  
they have the same current characteristics.  
9. Always unplug the unit from the cigarette lighter socket of the vehicle if you do  
not intend to use it for an extended period of time. In addition, first disconnect  
the cord from the cigarette lighter socket before disconnecting the cable  
from the 4-PIN socket on the back of the unit; never disconnect the cable from  
the unit connector by pulling the cord.  
10. Always remove the VHS tape from the unit after use.  
11. To avoid electrical hazards, do not disassemble the cabinet.  
12.Due to the nature of TV signals, vehicle motion, direction the vehicle is facing,  
distance from nearby transmitter, nearby surroundings and weather may  
adversely affect TV reception. These conditions may result in picture roll, poor  
reception (snowy picture) and momentary loss of color (especially when the  
vehicle is in motion).

rounded end of the template facing the front of your vehicle. Make sure  
that you have checked both underneath the vehicle and within the vehicle  
(under the carpet) for obstructions.

that the holes are in the proper locations.  
3. After verifying that the 1/8” pilot holes are in the proper locations, use  
the 1/4” drill bit to enlarge the pilot holes.

6. Place 1 sealing washer (rubber side towards vehicle floor) and 1 large fender  
washer over each of the floor bolts and attach the floor nuts. In addition to  
the sealing washer, it may be desirable to place a small circle of silicon  
sealer around the hole under the vehicle before installing the washers and  
nut, to further prevent moisture from getting into the vehicle.  
7. Tighten the floor nuts down securely. Have the 2nd person inside the vehicle  
hold the floor bolts securely with the box-end wrench, while the person  
underneath the vehicle tightens down the floor nuts.  
8. Press the latch of the door at the rear of the console to the right and open  
the door. Then set the console on the mounting plate, with the slot of the  
console base pointing to the tongue end of the mounting plate, and the two  
holes in the rear of the console pointing to the two holes in the upright end of  
the mounting plate.  
9. Apply a firm push forward to mate the console base and the floor mounting  
plate, with the tongue of the mounting plate projecting into the slot of the  
console base.  
10. Place the spring washer on the 2 console bolts.  
11. Place the console bolts through the mounting plate and into the two holes at  
the rear of the console base.  
12. Tighten the console base bolts with a Phillips screwdriver.  
G. Powering the unit (Refer to Figure 3)  
NOTE: Have all the wires, such as the power cord, AV cables and external  
antenna cable, or CATV cable, pass through the two notches at the  
bottom of the door.  
Plug the cigarette lighter cord into the 4-PIN DC input jack on the back of the  
console. Then reinstall the console rear door and press the latch to close the  
door. Plug the other end into the cigarette lighter receptacle in the vehicle.  
NOTE: If the unit draws in excess of 10 Amperes, the power supply will  
deactivate and turn off the unit.
