Attention installer! Please read the following!

DICE strongly recommends that the unit be installed in an easily accessible place! DO NOT PLACE IT BEHIND THE RADIO AND DO NOT HIDE UNDER CARPET!

Whether the unit is professionally or self installed, put the module where you, the end user can get to it easily in the future. (Have the installer show you where the interface module is installed.)

Installing the module behind the radio will make it difficult to:

-Add possible future upgrades, changing software, adding new features, improving operation; -Access the AUX input on the module to attach any audio device;

-Access the DIP switches located on the module; -Remove the unit in case of failure.

MAKE SURE THAT THE MODULE IS IN AN ACCESSIBLE PLACE!
