• Optimum performance is obtained when the unit is installed at an angle of less than
60°.
DIN front/rear mount
This unit can be properly installed either from “Front” (conventional DIN front-mount)
or “Rear” (DIN rear-mount installation, utilizing threaded screw holes on the sides of
unit chassis). For details, refer to the following installation methods.
• Use commercially available parts when installing.
DIN Front-mount
