Considerations Before Installing Highway - PURE Highway 400 Manual

Considerations before installing Highway

Minimum vehicle requirements
• Fitted audio system with either aux-in (3.5 mm) or FM receiver.
• Standard 12V negative earth power system - not suitable for 24V systems.
Check for the latest Highway software updates

Test intended positions of receiver and wireless controller before fixing into place
• Check the cable length to ensure connectors can reach the audio and accessory power outlet positions.
• Temporarily place the receiver and wireless controller in their intended positions and check that Highway is working as
expected. Check the digital radio quality and signal strength (see 'Info' on page 22 for more information).
Receiver positioning
• Ensure you can easily access the 'Reset' button on the receiver before fitting.
• For best performance we recommend positioning the receiver away from heated screen elements and not on glass panels
that contain metallic UV filters.
Wireless controller positioning
Consider usability and visibility from driving seat and possible mounting points/brackets.
Connecting to your existing audio system
There are two options for installing Highway. You can connect Highway to your audio system's auxiliary connection or you can
transmit to your audio system wirelessly using an available FM frequency.
• If you want to use an auxiliary cable (recommended for best performance), check for auxiliary inputs on the existing audio
system (this may be on the back on some audio systems). For more information, see your existing audio system's user guide.
• If you want to use an available FM frequency, select this option during initial Highway setup (see page 14 for more information).
Note: To comply with legal requirements the FM transmitter function of Highway will switch off if no audio is transmitted for a
period lasting over a minute - this includes DAB radio or audio streamed from your phone or tablet. If FM transmission is switched
off you need to re-tune to an active DAB station or stream audio from your phone or tablet.
