Note:
• Before making a final installation of the unit,
temporarily connect the wiring to confirm that the
connections are correct and the system works
properly.
• Use only the parts included with the unit to
ensure proper installation. The use of unautho-
rized parts can cause malfunctions.
• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation
requires the drilling of holes or other modifica-
tions of the vehicle.
• Install the unit where it does not get in the dri-
ver’s way and cannot injure the passenger if there
is a sudden stop, like an emergency stop.
• Do not place the display (sold separately) in a
position where it will impede the driver’s visibili-
ty or affect the operation of your vehicle’s air
bags.
• The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it
overheats, so don’t install the unit anywhere hot
— for instance, near a heater outlet.
• If installation angle exceeds 30° from horizontal,
the unit might not give its optimum performance.
• When mounting the hide-away unit, make sure
none of the leads are trapped between the hide-
away unit and the surrounding metalwork or fit-
tings.
• Do not mount the hide-away unit near the heater
outlet, where it would be affected by heat, or near
the doors, where rainwater might splash onto it.
• Before drilling any mounting holes always check
behind where you want to drill the holes. Do not
drill into the gas line, brake line, electrical wiring
or other important parts.
• If the hide-away unit is installed in the passenger
compartment, anchor it securely so it does not
break free while the car is moving, and cause
injury or an accident.
• If the hide-away unit is installed under a front
seat, make sure it does not obstruct seat move-
ment. Route all leads and cords carefully around
the sliding mechanism so they do not get caught
or pinched in the mechanism and cause a short
circuit.
MODE Switch Setting
Before installing, use a pen tip or other thin,
pointed instrument to set the MODE Switch to
the appropriate position for the component
you are using it with.
