INSTALLATION

Notes:

y Choose the mounting location where

the unit will not interfere with the
normal driving function of the driver.

y Before finally installing the unit,

connect the wiring temporarily and
make sure it is all connected up
properly and the unit and the system
work properly.

y Use only the parts included with the

unit to ensure proper installation. The
use of unauthorized parts can cause
malfunctions.

y Consult with your nearest dealer if

installation requires the drilling of holes
or other modifications of the vehicle.

y Install the unit where it does not get in

the driver’s way and cannot injure the
passenger if there is a sudden stop,
like an emergency stop.

y If installation angel exceeds 30°from

horizontal, the unit might not give its
optimum performance.

y Avoid installing the unit where it would

be subject to high temperature, such
as from direct sunlight, or from hot air,
from the heater, or where it would be
subject to dust, dirt or excessive
vibration.
