¥In a vehicle with a front passenger air bag, do not install the unit where it will interfere with the operation of the safety systems.

¥If the surface of the dash board is finished with other than plastic (leather, wooden panel, cloth covered panel, etc.), there will be some damage if the bracket is removed.

¥Installation close to other equipment (such as a GPS antenna) may give rise to mutual interference. Please pay careful attention to the installation location and maintain sufficient space between other equipment.

5.Mount the monitor to the bracket.

Thread the mounting screw into hole at the bottom of the monitor. Secure the monitor by tightening the screw.
