VEHICLE PREPARATION:

1) Decide on the system configuration and the options that will be installed (i.e.what components,
VCP, DVD, TV Tuner, Video Game, FM Modulator, etc.).
2) Read the manuals and get familiar with the electrical requirements and connections.
3) Decide on the mounting locations and methods of mounting the products that will be connected to
the LCM7020PKG.
4) Prepare the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain access to the vehicle's wiring
as well as all areas where interconnecting wire harnesses will be located. (Refer to the Installation
Procedure). The mounting method, and the location will vary from vehicle to vehicle, so this manual
will only focus for the installation of the LCM7020PKG Master and Slave Monitors in the supplied
configuration. The best location for the LCM7020PKG System components is:
a.
Monitors : Headrest (Vehicle specific)
b.
FM Modulator: Near the car radio with the ON/OFF switch mounted on the
dash board near the driver.
c.
System Main Cable: Under either seat where monitors are located.
5) Locate an accessory power source (+12VDC present when the ignition key is in the accessory and
run positions. 0VDC should be present, when the ignition key is in the OFF position). Generally,
these wires can be found at the ignition switch or fusebox. (NOTE: Ensure that the accessory
power is fused at the source. Failure to do so may result in vehicle wiring damage.)
6) Run the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary. (Refer to the Wiring Diagrams on
page 7, as well as the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory options
being installed). Be sure, that all the wiring is protected from sharp edges and is routed in such a
manner that it will not be pinched, when it is fully installed. Be sure to leave enough slack in the
wiring at each component to allow sufficient working room. Be sure to leave enough slack in the
monitor cables to allow the headrest to move up or down.
7) Remove all the A/V system components from their packaging and then place them in the vehicle at
their respective locations.
8) Install the Headrests:
a.
Remove vehicle's original Headrests.
b.
Hold the LCM7020PKG Headrest above the seat and insert the two cables into the
headrest support tube holes. Make sure that the headrest is in the correct position (Dis-
play facing the rear).
c.
Route the cables through the seat back and out the bottom of the seat.
d.
Place the Headrest support tubes into the support tube holes while pulling the cables to
remove the slack. Be sure to leave enough slack in the monitor cables to allow the
headrest to move up or down.
Slide a few inches of each cable through the Black Shrink Sleeve (see 2)
e.
Carefully remove Clear Shrink Tubing making sure not to damage wires inside.(see 1)
f.
g.
Separate and straighten all of the wires.
h.
Carefully insert each of the Terminal Pins into the Terminal Connector making sure that
each color wire is placed into the matching color connector hole. (see 3)
i.
Slide the Black Shrink Sleeve down over the wires and apply heat (hot air).
9) Connect all the components together (electrically) and verify that the proper operation of all the system
functions. NOTE: This is best done BEFORE the components are permanently mounted.
10) After verifying the proper operation of the system, proceed to mount each component.
11) When all the components are mounted, re-check the entire system to be sure it is functioning correctly.
Make sure that no wiring was pinched, or connected improperly during the final installation.
