This equipment requires 12V DC and should only be installed in a vehicle with a 12V negative earth electrical system. Any other installation may cause a fire or other severe damage to the equipment and the vehicle.

When installing equipment, do not remove or alter existing vehicle fasteners, including nuts, bolts, screws, clips, and fittings. Never detach, move or alter existing vehicle wiring, including electrical grounds and straps. Alteration of existing vehicle components may make the vehicle unsafe to operate.

Before installation, remove the negative battery terminal to prevent shocks, electrical arcing, fires, and damage to vehicle wiring and the equipment you are installing.

Secure wiring with tape or plastic ties so that wires do not interfere with vehicle operation, including brake pedal, gear shifter and steering. Position wires so that they will not be rubbed, abraded, or damaged by moving vehicle components, including power seats.

To avoid equipment and vehicle damage, including fire, never supply power to installed equipment in a way which will overload the capacity of an existing vehicle circuit. Never leave a power supply wire or connection uninsulated. Always install supplied fuses, circuit breakers, and relays

Air bags are vital safety equipment. Never install equipment in a way which will alter air bag wiring or interfere with air bag deployment. Air bags must function properly in the event of an accident.

For your protection, never use a power drill without safety glasses or goggles. Debris or broken drill bits may cause severe eye injuries, including blindness.

Use electrical tape to insulate the ends of all wires, even if not used. Proper insulation prevents arcs, shocks and fires.

Do not disassemble or alter this equipment. Accidents, fires or shocks may result.

Always replace fuses with fuses of identical capacity and characteristics. Never use a higher-rated fuse than the original. Using the wrong type of fuse may cause a fire or severe damage.

Do not modify this system for use other than that specified herein. Also, do not deviate from the installation procedures described herein; Eclipse will not be held liable for damages including, but not limited to serious injury, death or property damage resulting from installations that enable unintended operation.

Wiring and installing this equipment requires expertise and experience. Professional installation is recommended. Consult with your dealer or a professional installer. Incorrect wiring may damage the equipment or interfere with safe vehicle operation.

Use only the accessory parts as specified. Using other parts may cause damage to the equipment or cause parts to fall or fly off the equipment.

Do not install the unit in places where it may get dew condensation on (around the air conditioning hose, etc.), come in contact with water, or in conditions of high moisture, dust or oily smoke. If water, moisture, dust or oily smoke enters this unit, smoke, fires or malfunctions may result.

Avoid installing in places where it cannot be fastened securely or where there are strong vibrations. Also, if you installed the unit with double-sided tape, first wipe away dirt and wax from the installation area. Otherwise, the unit may come loose due to vibration while driving, causing problems for driving and resulting in traffic accidents or injuries.

Do not install in places with direct sunlight or where it will be hit directly by hot air from the heater. This may increase the temperature of the interior of this equipment, resulting in fires and malfunctions.

Do not block the fan, heat sink or vents for this unit. When fan, heat sink or vent are blocked, the interior overheats, and fires may result.

Connect as specified in the installation manual. If not connected normally, fires or accidents may result.

When installing in vehicles equipped with air bags, check the manufacturer's cautions regarding operation before operating. Airbags may not operate properly.

Carry out the wiring such that cords are not pinched by movable parts such as seat rails, and screw parts of the vehicle body. Accidents, fires and shocks may result from disconnection and electrical shorts.

Carry out the wiring such that the cord does not make contact with metal parts. The cord may be damaged by contact with metal parts, resulting in fire and shocks.

Avoid hot surfaces when wiring equipment. High temperatures may damage wiring, causing shorts, arcing and fires.

When changing the installation location for this equipment, please consult the dealer where you bought it for safety reasons. Expertise is necessary for removal and installation.
