Remote Control
Note:The remote control uses infrared light to send commands to the
DVD player, just as many home video systems do. Just point the remote
control at the DVD player infrared window located above each screen in
order to control that DVD player. While you can connect a second device
such as a VCR through the auxiliary inputs, and view the playback on
the screen, you cannot control that device by aiming its remote control
at the Ford DVD player. The Ford DVD system remote control is the
only remote control you can use with the system. For example, if you
connect a VCR to the DVD system, you must point the VCR remote
control at the VCR to control it.
Installing the Battery
Before using your remote control, install the batteries as follows:
1. Turn the remote control face down. Press down on the ridged area of
the battery cover and slide it off.
2. Install two AAA batteries. Make sure you install the batteries
properly, with the + and – facing the correct way, as shown in the
battery compartment.
3. Slide the cover back until it clicks.

root menu, where you have to select disc play manually.
Depending on the disc and playback location on the disc, the icon may
display in the upper-left corner of the screen indicating that still
playback is not possible.
Notes
•To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its
edge.
•Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.
Also, do not subject a disc to heat or high temperatures. Avoid
leaving them in a parked vehicle, on a dashboard or on a rear tray.
•Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink or residue. Such
discs may stop spinning, causing a system malfunction, or ruining the
disc.

malfunctions may result from using such discs:

skipping or no playback at all, due to heat shrinking of a sticker or
label causing the disc to warp.
