Headphone Outputs

Two output jacks (mini-phono plug) are provided for wired headphones. Output level is adjusted
using the Volume UP/DN buttons on the remote control.
NOTE:
• Plugging a headphone into either jack will mute the Variable Audio Output.

SmartView Swivel Mechanism

The design of this mechanism provides the rear seat passengers a stable picture, viewable from
many different angles. This system allows the LCD to tilt from 90 to 120 degrees in 10 degree
steps. At the same time, the LCD will maintain its horizontal view while being rotated from left
to right, up to 30 degrees, in 10 degree steps.
NOTE:
• The LCD will only close when rotation is at 0 degrees to prevent damage to the monitor.
• When rotating the monitor, use both hands on either side of the panel to ensure even pressure

on the mechanism. This will prevent damage to the SmartSwivel mechanism.

• Make sure the panel is fully opened (90 degree position) before trying to rotate.

LCD Monitor Panel

This is a 6.8 inch, TFT, Active Matrix, LCD. In addition, an Infrared Wireless Headphone
transmitter is located on both sides of the LCD panel. When the monitor panel is closed, the
power is automatically turned off. Once power is OFF, power can only be turned ON by using
the Power button on the remote control (even after the panel is reopened).

Monitor Open Button

Press this button to release the Monitor Panel. The Panel will drop down slightly allowing you to
fully open to its 90 degree or greater position. To close, firmly press the LCD Monitor Panel
back up into the housing until a click is heard.

IR Sensor/Logo

There is an IR Sensor that receives the Remote Control commands at the front of the housing. At
this same location is a back-lit Alpine logo which acts as the main power indicator.
