Warning
Please read these instructions carefully before proceeding. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death. DO
NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THAT IMPAIRS YOUR ABILITY TO DRIVE OR OPERATE YOUR
VEHICLE SAFELY.
Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be performed after coming to a complete stop. Always stop
the vehicle in a safe location before performing these functions. Failure to do so may result in an accident.
• DO NOT OPEN, DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER THE UNIT IN ANY WAY. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock or
product damage.
• DO NOT INSERT ANY OBJECTS INTO THE UNIT. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock or product damage.
• USE THE CORRECT CURRENT (AMPERAGE) RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSE. Failure to do so may result in fire,
electric shock or product damage.
• MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS. Failure to make proper connections may result in fire or product damage.
• DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES. Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment.
Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.
• DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS THAT MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION. Doing so may obstruct vision or
hamper movement which can result in a serious accident. If you are attaching the unit directly to the vehicle’s
chassis, be sure that you check to make sure the area behind the unit is clear from moving parts, fuel or break
lines, wire harnesses or any other items which may get damaged by drilling a mounting hole or using the supplied
screws.
• DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO HIGH LEVELS OF HUMIDITY, MOISTURE OR DUST. Doing so can result in electric
shock or product failure.

Caution
Please read these instructions carefully before proceeding. Failure to follow these safety instructions and warnings may
result in a serious accident and/or personal injury.
• HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM ARISES. Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the
product. Return the unit to your authorized retailer or nearest service center for repairing..
• ENSURE THE WIRING UPON INSTALLATION IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY SCREWS OR SHARP METAL
EDGES. Route the cables away from moving parts or sharp pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage
to the wiring. If the wiring must pass through a metal hole, be sure to use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire’s
insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.
• USE ONLY THE SPECIFIED PARTS AND INSTALL THE PRODUCT SECURELY. Be sure to use only the specified
accessory parts. Use of nonspecified parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in
place. This may cause parts to become loose, resulting in hazards or product failure.
• USE CAUTION IF or WHEN DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY TERMINAL. Please consult the vehicle’s owner’s
manual or a service technician prior to removing the battery positive or ground connection, as it may cause damage to the vehicle’s electrical system or require reprogramming of the vehicle’s computer-controlled devices.

vehicle. It is also compatible with systems that do not have the factory satellite tuner installed. For the latest information
