Do NOT start this step until you have inspected the seats and factory headrests for any obstructions. You will need to remove the existing factory headrests. The following steps will guide you through this process. Step 1: Determine if a locking device is present on the factory headrest. Locking devices are usually a button or small push pin located at the base of the headrest post(s). Step 2: If a locking device is present, press and hold the lock release, and pull firmly upward on the headrest. If no locking device is visibly present refer to the vehicle's owners manual or the vehicle's manufacturer for further instructions. Rosen Entertainment Systems HE0780D Installation Guide Copyright 2007 all rights reserved AP1024 Rev A Page 4 7 Installing the HE0780D headrests You will need to install the HE0780D headrests and route the cables through the seat backs. The following steps will guide you through this process. Step 1: Check the headrest down tubes in the seat backs for any obstructions. Normally the down tubes are clear and allow the HE0780D cables to exit from the bottom of the down tubes. Step 2: Position the HE0780Dheadrest so the monitor will be facing the rear of the vehicle once properly installed. Then drape the cables over the seat back, being sure that the cables are NOT crossed. Place the HE0780D safely on the seat cushion (see figure 6). Step 3: Attach the cable routing tool to a cable. Slowly feed each cable routing tool through its corresponding down tube until the ends of the cable routing tool is visible at the bottom of each seat back. Pull the cable until it extends out the base of the seat back. Repeat for the second cable. Fig. 6 Step 4: Remove the cable slack until only ½ inch is showing. Insert the headrest into the down tubes. This step normally takes some moderate force, and may be eased by using a very light lubricant on the posts. Be certain to pull lightly on the cables as the headrest is inserted to remove excess slack (see figure 7). Step 5: Once the headrest is fully seated in the down position, place a small service loop (6"-12") of cable in the seat back, to allow the headrest to easily adjust up or down. Fig. 7 Step 6: Connect the interface cable to the monitor cable, ensuring that the cables are matched gray-to-gray and blackto-black . Properly route the cables to ensure they are secured, out of sight and unobstructed by moving parts and passengers. CAUTION! Use caution when pulling on the cables as some seats may have sharp edges or objects in the seat back which could damage the cables. Sometimes it is necessary to remove or partially remove the seat back covering to properly install the cables.

Ensure that the routing of the harnesses does NOT obstruct airbags, SRS or other safety devices. You will need to route the harnesses and make the power connections to the vehicle. The following steps will guide you through this process. Step 1: This system requires a minimum of 12V (+) ACC Switched and Ground (-) to operate. The 12V (+) ACC Switched source must be capable of supplying a minimum of 7A. These can be found at multiple points in the vehicle. The Ground (-) should be located at a Factory Chassis ground point when possible. Step 2: Select a location to mount the junction box for the HE0780D unit. Normally the junction box is best located under either the driver or passenger seat. Be sure to locate it so that it will not obstruct any moving parts in the seat or damaged by the feet of passengers. Step 3: Route the power harness to the dash area where you have located the 12V (+) ACC connection point. Be sure to protect the cable from any potential sharp edges which could damage the harness in the future. To avoid vibration noise, use tape to secure the harness whenever possible. Step 4: Route the FMT antenna wire (purple) toward the antenna/tuner. (Be sure to separate it from the power wires and avoid any power seat modules or other vehicle harnesses as these may induce noise into the FM transmission.) Step 5: When connecting the power harness, Rosen recommends soldering all connections. When using T-Tap or crimp connectors, always ensure the connections are made with the proper gauge connectors. Failure to make a proper connection will result in a system failure in the future. Step 6: With ACC off, plug all harnesses into the main interface unit. Note: Plug the main power harness in last. 9 Initial test, reassembly, and pre-delivery re-test You will need to fully test the system to ensure it is working and connected to the vehicle properly. The following steps will guide you through this process. Step 1: INITIAL TEST (Do this BEFORE you reassemble any trim panels) a. Reconnect the vehicle battery if needed b.
