Installation
Note:
• Before finally installing the unit, connect the
wiring temporarily, making sure it is all connected
up properly, and the unit and the system work
properly.
• 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.
• If installation angle exceeds 60° from horizontal,
the Head Unit might not give its optimum perfor-
mance. (Fig. 5)

• When mounting this unit, make sure none of the
leads are trapped between this unit and the sur-
rounding metalwork or fittings.
• Do not mount the tuner 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 tuner unit is installed in the passenger com-
partment, anchor it securely so it does not break
free while the car is moving, and cause injury or an
accident.
• If the tuner unit is installed under a front seat,
make sure it does not obstruct seat movement.
Route all leads and cords carefully around the slid-
ing mechanism so they do not get caught or
pinched in the mechanism and cause a short cir-
cuit.
