Installation It is recommended that installation only be performed by a qualifi ed professional. Beware of sharp edges to avoid injury and exercise caution when removing trims as they may break. The module should be placed at an accessible location to allow an AUX cable to be connected, such as in the glove box, the center console or under the front seat.
Installation 10. Route the remainder of the interface harness in the best possible manner (e.g. under the door sill or under the drivers seat) and connect it to the Vehicle connector on the interface module. NOTE: When routing harnesses or cables, ensure they are secured away from sharp edges and moving parts by the use of cable ties.
