ROSEN ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS VIDEO PRODUCTS ARE NOT INTENDED FOR VIEWING BY
THE DRIVER, AND ARE TO BE INSTALLED ONLY TO BE VIEWED BY REAR-SEAT OCCUPANTS.
IMPROPER INSTALLATION COULD DISTRACT THE DRIVER OR INTERFERE WITH SAFE
OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, AND
COULD ALSO VIOLATE STATE LAW. ROSEN ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS DISCLAIMS ANY
LIABILITY FOR ANY BODILY INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM ANY

BEFORE YOU START THE INSTALLATION, READ THIS GUIDE!
Rosen "Headrest DVD" systems are the easiest-to-install DVD entertainment systems available today.
However, we strongly recommend reading this guide before starting the installation!
1 Make sure you have the tools you will need
These common items are needed to complete this installation:
· Digital multimeter (DMM)
· Appropriate tool for headrest removal · Allen wrench set
· Panel removing tools
· Security latch tool (included)
· Wire cutters, strippers, and a crimping tool
· 1/4" drive sockets are often needed for dashboard and trim disassembly
· Check if Torx or Allen-drive bolts are used on any panels you will be removing
· You will need a DVD in good condition when testing the system
Standard installation parts you will need include wire, wire ties, wire crimp connectors or solder, and
electrical insulating tape. Installation of aftermarket automotive electronics also often requires access to
special parts. It is a good idea to have a source for these common installation parts.
2 Inspect the vehicle and plan your work
CHECK THE BATTERY
Test the battery voltage to make sure it's fully charged and inspect battery terminals for tightness and any
corrosion. This only takes seconds and can save hours of troubleshooting later.
DECIDE ON A LOCATION FOR THE INTERFACE UNIT
Location of the interface unit varies by vehicle, but is typically secured underneath a driver or passenger
seat out of sight and unobstructed by moving parts and passengers.
