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.

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.
