installing the front panel; otherwise you are not able to install the trim frame. When the trim frame being

The front panel of this unit can be stored in the included protective case when not in used and carried away
when you leave the vehicle to deter theft.
Switch off the power of the unit. Detach the front panel, then put it to the protective case and take it with
you.
Cautions: The control panel can easily be damaged by shocks. After removing it, place it in a protective case
and be careful not to drop it or subject it to strong shocks.
The rear connector that connects the main unit and the control panel is an extremely important part. Be
careful not to damage it by pressing on it with fingernails, pens, screwdrivers, etc.

isopropyl alcohol to clean the socket on the back of the control panel.
