Installation and Connections

Before installing or connecting the unit, please read
the following and pages 6 to 10 of this manual
thoroughly for proper use.

WARNING

MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result
in fire or product damage.
USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE
GROUND.
(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure
to do so mayresult in fire, etc.
BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE
FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury
due to electrical shorts.
DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME
ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the
manual to prevent obstructions when driving.
Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places
such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake
pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to
other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current
carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or
electric shock.
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN
DRILLING HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation,
take precautions so as not to contact, damage or
obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring.
Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.
DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE
OR STEERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND
CONNECTIONS.
Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems
(or any other safety-related system), or tanks should
NEVER be used for installations or ground connec-
tions. Using such parts could disable control of the
vehicle and cause fire etc.
24-EN
KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS SCREWS OUT
OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If
swallowed,consult a physician immediately.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT
HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE
STEERING WHEEL OR SHIFT LEVER.
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper
movement etc.and results in serious accident.

Caution

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE
BY EXPERTS.
The wiring and installation of this unit requires
special technical skill and experience. To ensure
safety, always contact the dealer where you purch-
ased this product to have the work done.
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND
INSTALL THEM SECURELY.
Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts.
Use of other than designated parts may damage
this unit internally or may not securely install the
unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose
resulting in hazards or product failure.
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR
PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.
Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts
(like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This
will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If
wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber
grommet to prevent the wire's insulation from being
cut by the metal edge of the hole.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH
MOISTURE OR DUST.
Avoid installing the unit in locations with high
incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that
penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.
