XDVD9101 PREPARATION  
WARNING  
Upon installation of this Monitor/DVD player (“unit”) into a vehicle, the driver of the vehicle  
must not operate this unit by watching videos or playing video games while driving.  
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.  
Several states prohibit the installation of monitors/DVD players if the screen is visible from  
the driver’s seat. If you reside in a jurisdiction which has enacted such a law, this unit  
must not be installed so that the screen is visible from the driver’s seat. When installing  
this unit in the front console/dashboard, the unit must be positioned so that it is facing the  
front passenger seat only. Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction  
which could result in serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside  
the vehicle and/or property damage.  
This unit is designed so that it may be operated only when the vehicle is in “Park” and the  
parking brake is fully engaged. To this end, this unit includes a parking brake lock-out  
feature which prohibits the unit from operating if the vehicle is not in “Park” and/or the  
parking brake is not fully engaged. When installing this unit, the installer must connect  
the parking brake detect wire (“Yellow-Blue Lead”) to the parking brake mechanism in  
order to make the parking brake lock-out feature operable. DO NOT simply ground the  
parking brake detect wire to a metal portion of the vehicle. Failure to properly install  
the parking brake lock-out feature could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the driver’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.  
Once the parking brake lock-out feature is installed, the owner/user must not attempt to  
disrupt/neutralize the parking brake lock-out feature by (a) partially engaging the parking  
brake and/or (b) purchasing/using any device or unit designed to send necessary brake  
signals to the unit. Failure to follow these instructions could lead to driver distraction  
which could result in serious injury or death to the driver’s occupants or persons outside  
the vehicle and/or property damage.  
When operating this unit, keep the unit’s volume level low enough so that the vehicle’s  
occupants can hear traffic-related sounds such as police and emergency vehicles.  
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.

XDVD9101 OPERATION  
WARNING  
Upon installation of this Monitor/DVD player (“unit”) into a vehicle, the driver of the vehicle  
must not operate this unit by watching videos or playing video games while driving.  
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.  
Several states prohibit the installation of monitors/DVD players if the screen is visible from  
the driver’s seat. If you reside in a jurisdiction which has enacted such a law, this unit  
must not be installed so that the screen is visible from the driver’s seat. When installing  
this unit in the front console/dashboard, the unit must be positioned so that it is facing the  
front passenger seat only. Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction  
which could result in serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside  
the vehicle and/or property damage.  
This unit is designed so that it may be operated only when the vehicle is in “Park” and the  
parking brake is fully engaged. To this end, this unit includes a parking brake lock-out  
feature which prohibits the unit from operating if the vehicle is not in “Park” and/or the  
parking brake is not fully engaged. When installing this unit, the installer must connect  
the parking brake detect wire (“Yellow-Blue Lead”) to the parking brake mechanism in  
order to make the parking brake lock-out feature operable. DO NOT simply ground the  
parking brake detect wire to a metal portion of the vehicle. Failure to properly install  
the parking brake lock-out feature could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the driver’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.  
Once the parking brake lock-out feature is installed, the owner/user must not attempt to  
disrupt/neutralize the parking brake lock-out feature by (a) partially engaging the parking  
brake and/or (b) purchasing/using any device or unit designed to send necessary brake  
signals to the unit. Failure to follow these instructions could lead to driver distraction  
which could result in serious injury or death to the driver’s occupants or persons outside  
the vehicle and/or property damage.  
When operating this unit, keep the unit’s volume level low enough so that the vehicle’s  
occupants can hear traffic-related sounds such as police and emergency vehicles.  
Failure to follow this instruction could lead to driver distraction which could result in  
serious injury or death to the vehicle’s occupants or persons outside the vehicle and/or  
property damage.

depending on media type and recording method.  
Playback Order  
MP3/WMA playback sequence is based on recorded order of files and begins  
in the root folder of the disc or USB flash drive. Any empty folders or folders  
that do not include MP3/WMA/JPG files are skipped. Refer to your recording  
software’s user’s manual for more information.  
Compatible Recording Formats  
ISO9660 standards:  
• Maximum nested folder depth is 8 (including the root folder).  
• Valid characters for folder/file names are letters A-Z (all caps), numbers  
0-9, and “_” (underscore). Some characters may not be displayed correctly,  
depending on the character type.  
• This device can play back discs in Joliet and other standards that conform  
to ISO9660. MP3/WMA written in the formats other than the above may  
not play and/or their file names or folder names may not be displayed  
properly.  
Additional MP3/WMA Information  
An internal buffer provides ESP (Electronic Skip Protection) to virtually  
eliminate skipping.  
When playing a disc recorded with regular audio files (CD-DA or .WAV) and  
MP3/WMA files, the unit will play the MP3/WMA files only.  
Note:  
Some files may not play or be displayed correctly, depending on sampling  
rates and bit rates.
