experienced of installation technicians. If you are not condent working with electrical
wiring, removing and reinstalling interior panels, carpeting, dashboards or other compo­nents of your vehicle, please call our toll-free help line 1-800-445-1797 and our in-house technical service team will answer your installation questions.

IMPORTANT: unit before installing.
• Before nal installation of the unit, connect the wiring temporarily,
making sure the unit and the system work properly.
• Use only the parts included with unit to ensure proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts can cause malfunctions.
• Consult with your vehicle’s nearest dealership if installation re-
quires the drilling of holes or other modications of the vehicle.
Install the unit where it does not get in the driver’s way and cannot in-
jure the passenger if there is a sudden stop, like an emergency stop.
• The laser will be damaged if it overheats, so don’t install the unit anywhere hot--for instance, near a heater outlet.
