SAFETY INFORMATION
Read all of the safety and operating instructions before operating the
system and retain for future reference.
Do not attempt to service, repair or modify the AutoVisiontSystem. See
your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer.
Do not insert foreign objects into the videocassette player (VCP) tape
cassette compartment.
The front glass on the liquid crystal display may break when hit
with a hard surface. If the glass breaks, do not touch the liquid
crystalline material. In case of contact with skin, wash immediately
with soap and water.
The driver must not attempt to operate any function of the floor
console mounted VCP while the vehicle is in motion. Give full
attention to driving and to the road. Pull off the road and park in a
safe place before inserting or extracting video tapes from the VCP. A
remote control is included in the system to allow the rear seat
occupants to operate the VCP functions without distracting the driver.
Be sure to review User Manuals for video games and video game
equipment when used as auxiliary inputs for your AutoVisiontSystem.
Do not operate video games or video equipment if the power cords
and/or cables are broken, split or damaged. Carefully place cords and/or
cables where they will not be stepped on or interfere with the operation
of seats and/or compartments.
Disconnect video games and video equipment power cords and/or cables
when not in use.
Avoid touching auxiliary input jacks with your fingers. Do not blow on
them or allow them to get wet or dirty.
Do not clean any part of the AutoVisiontsystem with benzene, paint
thinner or any other solvent.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Batteries are supplied with the remote control unit. However, they are
simply for operation check and will only work for a short time.
Slide battery cover off as shown on remote control to access the batteries.
The remote control unit uses two AAA batteries.
The need for battery replacement is usually indicated if the remote
control only functions at extremely close distances to the entertainment
center or not at all.
When replacing batteries, use two new batteries (alkaline recommended)
and install with correct orientation (+ and þ polarities). Ensure that you
use only new batteries of the same brand.
If you will not be using the remote control for a considerably long time,
remove the batteries.
