SECTION TWO: Installing and wiring the 958
Flush-mounting the 958
When flush mounting, leave at least two and a half inches of clearance space behind the mounting panel for all of the cables and connectors. Flush mounting requires good ventilation behind the mounting panel. Poor ventilation will cause the 958 to overheat, which, in turn, may cause the display screen to darken. For overall width and height requirements, see the Northstar 958
CAUTION!
When flush mounting, be sure to mount the 958 on a flat surface. Mounting on a curved surface can break or distort the plastic and break the waterproof seal. Do not overtighten the mounting screws; you may damage the case and compromise its waterproof seal. This type of physical damage will void the warranty.
