Frequently Asked Questions - PL71PHB Pyle

How do I install the headrest monitors in my vehicle?

Remove the existing headrest. Adjust the posts by moving them apart or together to match the seat holes. Insert the cable into the proper hole, then insert the posts and work the headrest into position. Ensure cables are not pinched. Run the cable down the seat to the video source.

What are the power wiring connections?

Connect the red wire to a switched +12V source (ACC) so the monitors turn off with the ignition. Connect the black wire to a good chassis ground. Reversing polarity will damage the monitor.

What should I do if there is no picture or sound?

Check that the power cord is properly connected and the fuse is intact. Verify all video input cables are secure and the source device (e.g., DVD player) is powered on and outputting a signal.

How do I adjust the headrest posts if they are too loose in the seat holes?

Use the supplied adapter tubes (12mm diameter). Slide them over the posts to increase the diameter for a snug fit in larger mounting holes.

UNIVERSAL HEADREST WITH PRE-INSTALLED MONITOR OWNER'S MANUAL

Congratulations on your purchase of this headrest monitor system. The product is designed and built to deliver excellent video quality and long lasting high performance. For best results please consult a professional mobile electronics installer for application advice or troubleshooting. Please read these instructions thoroughly before installation.

Installation Instructions

1. Remove the existing headrest from the seat.
2. Adjust the posts of the new headrest to fit the holes in the seat where the headrest will be installed. The post can be moved together or apart: grasp one post in each hand, move the posts in opposing directions (like they were walking) while pushing them toward each other or away from each other.
3. Insert the cable in the proper hole. Insert the posts into the holes in the seat and carefully work the headrest into position. Make sure the cable is not pinched.
