IN-DASH MOUNTING THE CONTROL HEAD

If you are in-dash mounting the control head, start by placing the components on the surfaces where you intend to install them before installation. Make sure that the surfaces you have chosen provide adequate protection from wave shock, and that all cables can reach the control head.

NOTE: If a cable is too short for your application, extension cables are available. Call

Parts and tools specific to In-dash mounting are:

•In-dash mount bracket and threaded rods

•In-dash mounting foam pads

•In-dash mounting template

•Reciprocating saw for cutting dash material

•Masking tape to hold mounting template in place.

1.Locate a suitable, flat area of the dash to mount the control head. The control head requires a depth of at least 3 ½ inches.

2.Tape the paper In-Dash Mounting template to the desired in-dash mounting location.

3.At a location inside the dotted line on the template, drill a hole large enough to insert blade of reciprocating saw. Carefully begin cutting toward the dotted line, then follow the dotted line around the template. Remove the template when finished.

4.Insert and tighten the two threaded rods into the two threaded inserts located on the back side of the control head. Peel off the adhesive-backed foam pads and place them on the back of the control head; make sure you notice the difference between the longer top/bottom and shorter side pads.

5.Insert the control head through the mounting hole from the front side of the dash. From the back side of the dash, align the two threaded rods on the rear of the housing with the two holes on the in-dash mounting bracket. Place a washer onto each threaded rod, then secure bracket by placing a wing nut onto each threaded rod and tighten fully.

6.Insert cable connectors into the proper recesses on the cable collector insert. The cable connectors are keyed to prevent reverse installation, so be careful not to force the connectors into the wrong slots. If you don’t have a cable for every hole in the insert, install the blank plugs to protect the unit from the weather.
