Before Installation

To prevent damage to your vehicle and the interface, take the following precau- tions.

NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with an on-board drive or navigation com- puter, do not disconnect the battery cable If the battery cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these conditions, use extra caution to avoid causing a short circuit during installation.

First Step (For All Vehicles)

The ﬁ rst and most important step in using the Aux2Car is setting the dip-switches on the interface ; this makes the Auxillary source compatible with the vehicle it is being installed in. The Aux2Car adaptor will not work if this step is not followed correctly.

IMPORTANT!!! Dip Switch settings must be made while unit is unplugged from vehi- cle. Changes to dip switch settings will not be recognized until l unit is powered down then powered up again.

The dip switches can be found on the side of the interface which connects to the source. Switches are in the “ON” position when they are switched down. Aux2Car settings for each vehicle can be found on the vehicles installation page. Refer to the index to ﬁ nd the page number within this manual that covers your vehicle.
