OPTIONAL ACCESSORY (Not included in standard packaging.) 11 8" decorative plastic shroud (mounting hardware included with item 10 above) MV10010-11B1 (Gray) MV10014-11B1 (Neutral) 3 INSTALLATION OVERVIEW Generally, it is best to install the DVDM-800 unit in place of the vehicle's dome light. For vehicles with factory-installed overhead consoles in the headliner, consult the console manufacturer for complete installation instructions. Professional installation is recommended. The exact method for mounting the DVDM-800 unit will vary from vehicle to vehicle. Here is an overview of the installation process: 1. Unpack DVDM-800 and identify all components. 2. Review and become familiar with the operating and installation literature. Note electrical requirements and determine the installation technique best suited to the vehicle. 3. Determine installation locations for all components, noting all potential obstacles. 4. Prepare the vehicle for installation: · Locate an accessory power source (+12V when the ignition key is in the ACC and "on" positions; 0V when the ignition is turned to "off"). Also locate a constant power source (+12V DC at all times) as well as a good grounding point. These connection points are typically found at the ignition switch, fuse box, radio, etc. · To gain access to the vehicle's wiring, remove the ceiling panel and any interior trim, using an upholstery hook tool if necessary. · Remove vehicle dome light, if necessary. · Cut any required access holes (headliner, other trim components, etc.). · If shroud will be used, additional trimming of the shroud may be required to conform to the vehicle roof. Caution: Take care when removing the dome light and cutting the headliner to not damage the headliner fabric. 7. Mount DVDM-800, following the instructions provided in this guide. 8. Recheck all system functions to ensure that wiring is connected properly and that no wires are kinked or pinched. Warning: Failure to properly follow these instructions could result in damage to the vehicle, its electronic system, other property, or personal injury and/or death. MOUNTING DVDM-800 Recommended Tools and Equipment · Upholstery hook tool (for removal of panels, if necessary) · Scribe · #1 and #2 Phillips screwdrivers · Utility knife, razor knife, or shears · Wire strippers · Electrical tape · Multimeter (to verify correct voltages and continuity; Delphi does not recommend using a test light or logic probe for this purpose) Depending on the roof geometry of the particular vehicle in which you are installing DVDM-800, there are three installation options: Attaching the unit directly to the roof supports with the shroud, bolting it into the mounting bracket alone, or installing it with both the shroud and the mounting bracket. See Figure 2. Note: The following mounting sequence may be modified based on the installation option chosen. 5. Route the power and A/V cables and any other component/accessory wiring throughout the vehicle, protecting wiring from sharp edges. For guidance, refer to the wiring diagram on page 6 as well as any instructions provided with other hardware such as gaming systems. 6. Connect all electrical components, insert a DVD, and verify that all system functions work properly prior to final mounting in the vehicle. 1. With panels, trim, and dome light removed, install the video monitor temporarily to the vehicle roof by opening the unit and inserting bolts through the bolt holes directly into the roof supports. Leave a gap between the headliner and the outer flange of the video monitor. 2. Following the contour of the roof, mark the area to be trimmed on the shroud so that it will fill the gap between the headliner and outer flange. 4 3. Trim the shroud. Using a sharp utility knife or shears, score the plastic along the cutline with several passes, cutting a little deeper each time. When you have cut about halfway through the plastic, bend it back and forth several times for a clean cut. See Figure 1. Figure 1. 4. Remove the video monitor and hold the shroud in place, checking the fit. 5. Make minor adjustments, if necessary. 6. Attach DVDM-800 and shroud using screws through the perimeter screw bosses. Use spacers provided to support shroud as required. Do not overtighten. This can cause the assembly to distort or bend. See Figure 2. Use of screw locking compound recommended. 7. If using the mounting bracket, secure it to the roof support cross-members. 8. Attach DVDM-800 (alone or as part of the shroud assembly). The bolts should contact the roof support cross-members directly with no gap between the bolt and the roof structure. Be sure that bolts do not pierce the outer roof skin when fully fastened to the cross-member. Figure 2. Warning: Failure to properly follow these instructions could result in damage to the vehicle, its electronic system, other property, or personal injury and/or death.

Connect the power cable and A/V components to the appropriate vehicle electrical connections (Figure 3): a. Insert the 16-pin mini-DIN connector into the mini-DIN connector on the back of the system. b. Route A/V lead through vehicle, avoiding sharp edges and rub points, to location of A/V input/output box. 2. Connect the supplied power cable to the vehicle electrical system, tapping into an accessory hot line, constant battery line, and ground. 3. Verify that all system functions operate properly before final mounting. Refer to the Delphi Mobile Video DVDM-800 User Manual for detailed operating information. Warning: Failure to properly follow these instructions could result in damage to the vehicle, its electronic system, other property, or personal injury and/or death. 6 CONNECTING THE DOME LIGHTS The dome lights on DVDM-800 require three connections to the vehicle wiring. First, determine which of the two common types of dome light circuits your vehicle has: positive or negative switched. Positive switched systems turn the interior lights on by supplying voltage to them. Negative switched systems illuminate the bulbs by applying ground. The wires at the dome light will help you determine which system you have. · On a positive switched system, with all vehicle doors closed and lights out, both wires at the dome light will rest at ground. When the light is turned on, one of these wires will switch to +12V DC (the vehicle's switching wire). Connect the purple/brown (lamp auto) wire to the vehicle's switched wire. Then, connect the red/black (lamp on) wire to a fused constant 12V source and the black/red (lamp common) wire to a good ground. · On a negative switched system, with all vehicle doors closed and lights out, both wires at the dome light will rest at +12V DC. When the light is turned on, one of these wires will switch to ground (the vehicle's switching wire). Connect the purple/brown (lamp auto) wire to the vehicle's switched wire. Then, connect the red/black (lamp on) wire to a good ground and the black/red (lamp common) wi ...
