Installation
Note:
• Before finally installing the unit, connect the
wiring temporarily, making sure it is all connect-
ed up properly, and the unit and the system work
properly.
• Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure
proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts
can cause malfunctions.
• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation
requires the drilling of holes or other modifica-
tions of the vehicle.
• Install the unit where it does not get in the dri-
ver’s way and cannot injure the passenger if there
is a sudden stop, like an emergency stop.
• Do not install the display where it may (i) obstruct
the driver's vision, (ii) impair the performance of
any of the vehicle's operating systems or safety
features, including air bags, hazard lamp buttons
or (iii) impair the driver's ability to safely operate
the vehicle.
• The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it
overheats, so don’t install the unit anywhere hot
— for instance, near a heater outlet.
• If installation angle exceeds 30° from horizontal,
the unit might not give its optimum performance.

• The cords must not cover up the area shown in the
figure below. This is necessary to allow the
amplifires to radiate freely. (Fig. 12)

• When mounting the hide-away unit, make sure
none of the leads are trapped between the hide-
away unit and the surrounding metalwork or fit-
tings.
• Do not mount the hide-away unit near the heater
outlet, where it would be affected by heat, or near
the doors, where rainwater might splash onto it.
• If the hide-away unit is installed in the passenger
compartment, anchor it securely so it does not
break free while the car is moving, and cause
injury or an accident.
• If the hide-away unit is installed under a front
seat, make sure it does not obstruct seat move-
ment. Route all leads and cords carefully around
the sliding mechanism so they do not get caught
or pinched in the mechanism and cause a short
circuit.
Installing the remote control unit
When not using the remote control
unit, secure it with velcro tape to pre-
vent it from moving.
• Thoroughly wipe off the surface
before affixing the velcro tape.
