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.
