Removal
1. Remove the detachable front panel.
2. Use a small screwdriver (or similar tool) to push the
locking pins to the “up” position (see above drawing).
As each pin is unlocked, gently pull out on the unit to
make sure it does not re-lock before unlocking the
second pin.
3. Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.
Caution
Do not block the unit’s heat sink, thus preventing air circulation.
If blocked, heat will accumulate inside the unit and may cause a
fire.
Caution
When you install this unit in your car, do not remove the
detachable front panel.
If the detachable front panel is removed during installation, you
might press too hard and warp the metal plate that holds it in
place.

When your vehicle has the Bracket, mount the long
hex bolt onto the rear panel of the iDA-X001 and put
the Rubber Cap on the hex bolt. If your vehicle does
not have the Mounting Support, reinforce the head
unit with the metal mounting strap (not supplied).

details described in the CONNECTIONS section.
• For the screw *, provide a proper screw to the chassis installing
location.

Slide the iDA-X001 into the dashboard. When the
unit is in place, make sure the locking pins are fully
seated in the down position. This can be done by
pressing firmly in on the unit while pushing the
locking pin down with a small screwdriver. This
ensures that the unit is properly locked and will not
accidentally come out from the dashboard. Install
the detachable front panel.
