Installation

Mounting the DAB Antenna to the Roof
2CAUTION
• Make a hole in the roof and mount the DAB
antenna. Specialized knowledge is required for
this job and an installer should be requested
for the installation work.
• The DAB antenna should be mounted so that it
does not protrude beyond the width and length
of the car.
• Do not install at a spot where the roof is
markedly curved. Doing so will allow water to
enter from a gap between the roof and the
waterproof rubber.
• Securely fasten the screws that fix the DAB
antenna as well as the screws of the DAB
antenna itself. Screws that loosen introduce
the danger of the antenna coming apart during
travel.
1
Determine the mounting position of the
DAB antenna.
2
Wipe away any dirt from the mounting
position.
3
Remove the inner lining at the position
where the hole will be made in the roof.
Make a 16 mm diameter hole in the roof.
4
Mount the DAB antenna and fasten it by
tightening the nut from the inside.U
5
Use a cable clamp to fix the antenna cable
and perform the wiring as far as the DAB
hideaway unit.

Mounting the DAB Hideaway Unit
2CAUTION
• Install the DAB hideaway unit in a well-
ventilated location and do not place objects on
top of it.
• The DAB hideaway unit is equipped with a
cooling fan to lower the internal temperature.
Do not block the holes of the cooling fan at the
time of installation. Blocking the holes of the
cooling fan will cease to allow the temperature
to be lowered and will cause breakdown.
• When installing to the car, the unit should be
securely fastened at a location that will not
interfere with driving.
• When making a hole in the chassis, check that
the gas tank, break pipe, wire harness, or
other part is not located on the other side, and
be careful not to cause scratches.
• When attaching the mounting fittings 2 to the
DAB hideaway unit, use only the supplied
mounting screws 3 (M5 x 6 mm). Use of
screws other than those supplied may result in
internal damage or insecure mounting and is
very dangerous.
• Installation using the self-tapping
