Safety Precautions

Be sure to observe the following warnings. Failure to follow these safety instructions and warnings may result in a serious accident and/or personal injury.

Install the cables and wiring so that it 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 caution if you need to disconnect the vehicle’s 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.

Do not operate any function that takes your attention away from safely driving your

• vehicle. 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.

Do not install in locations that might hinder vehicle operation. Doing so may ob-

• struct vision or hamper movement which can result in a serious accident.

Do not install the unit to high levels of humidity, moisture or dust. Doing so can

• result in electric shock or product failure.
