Note:

• Before finally installing the unit, connect the

wiring temporarily, making sure it is all connect-
ed 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 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 in a position where it

will impede the driver’s visibility 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.

• The cords must not cover up the area shown in

the figure below. This is necessary to allow the
amplifires to radiate freely. (Fig. 8)

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.

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.

Installing the hide-away unit

• Install the hide-away unit with

the velcro tape. (Fig. 9)

• Thoroughly wipe off the surface

before affixing the velcro tape.

• Direct installation on the carpet is

possible if the hard velcro tape will
adhere to the carpet. Do not use the
soft velcro tape in this case.
