How do you play a DVD while driving?

My car has a built-in DVD player. I’ve never tried to use it, but my kids and I are getting ready to go on a long trip. I know they’ll be really bored in the car, so I want to figure out how it works. How do I use my car’s DVD player?

Long car rides
can be really stressful, so playing a DVD for your kids while you’re driving is a great idea! Here’s how to do it:
  1. Turn your car on without starting the engine so that you can access the DVD menu.
  2. Insert a DVD. If your DVD player doesn’t come on automatically, turn it on.
  3. Select Play and wait for the film to start.
  4. Once the DVD begins playing, start your engine and drive away. The video should continue to play!
When you take a long trip, it’s also important to make sure you’re protected by a good car insurance policy. Luckily, it’s easy when you use the
