NOTICE! Risk of damage!
• When drilling holes, check beforehand that there is sufficient space
on the other side for the drill head to come out.
• Cables and connections that are not properly installed will cause
malfunctions or damage to components. Correct installation of
cables and connections ensures lasting and trouble-free operation of
the retrofitted components.
• The cables may not be exposed for long periods to solvents such as
benzene, since solvents can damage the cable.
Therefore, please observe the following instructions:
• As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable
options such as panelling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If no open-
ings are available, you must drill holes for the cables. Check beforehand that
there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to emerge.
• Wherever possible, lay cables inside the vehicle, as they are better protected
there than outside.
If you do need to lay a cable outside the vehicle, ensure that it is well fastened (use
additional cable ties, insulating tape etc.).
• To prevent damage to the cables when laying them, ensure that they are far
enough away from hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive
shafts, light systems, fans, heaters, etc.). Use corrugated piping or other protec-
tive materials to protect against mechanical wear.
• Use the vulcanising adhesive tape to protect the plug connections of the video
connection cables against the ingress of water (fig. h, page 8).
• When laying the cables (fig. 3, page 4), make sure:
– they are not kinked or twisted
– they do not rub on edges
– they are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection.
