Installation
Note:
• Before making a final installation of the unit, tem-
porarily connect the wiring to confirm that the con-
nections are correct and the system works proper-
ly.
• Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure
proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts
can cause malfunctions.
• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation
requires the drilling of holes or other modifications
of the vehicle.
• Install the unit where it does not get in the driver's
way and cannot injure the passenger if there is a
sudden stop, like an emergency stop.
• The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it
overheats, so don't install the unit anywhere hot —
for instance, near a heater outlet.
