Installing the hide-away unit

Installation

Note:

•Before making a final installation of the unit, temporarily connect the wiring to confirm that the connections are correct and the system works 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. (Fig. 9)

•To ensure proper heat dissipation of this product, take special care not to block the cooling fan side of this product.

•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.

•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 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.
