Step:3 click show password, and go to the rear seat entertainment. The engine should be already running from you find your wifi Hotspot so if the tvs have timed out just wake them up. (It's easier to use the remotes) After selecting your language it will prompt you to connect to wifi. Have that ID and password that you just found ready and enter it in.
Part:4 pay the wifi Hotspot fee and enjoy.
Disclaimer: if you think these tvs are the old fashioned play a DVD/ BR disk they are not. They are basically little smart tvs so have your subscription passwords ready.
