Notes and Maintenance

Before you begin installation, read all instructions thoroughly.
Proper tools will improve the quality of installation and reduce the time required.
To protect the product, wax after installing. Regular waxing is recommended
to add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax
that may contain abrasives that could damage the finish.
For polished, gloss and other smooth finishes,
polish may be used to clear small scratches and scuffs on the finish.
Mild automotive detergent may be used to clean the product. Do not use dish detergent, abrasive
cleaners, abrasive pads, wire brushes or other similar products that may damage the finish.
Periodic inspection of all wires and connections should be
performed to ensure there is no visible damage or loose connections.
CAUTION: Improper electrical installation may result in personal injury. Unless you
are familiar with the installation and handling of electrical systems, have this step
performed by someone who has that familiarity.
Refer to the table to the left when securing hardware during the
installation process to help prevent damage to the product or vehicle.
