Routing the optical cable

Precaution:

• Try not to bend the optical cable sharply. If it is

necessary to bend it sharply, make sure that the

bending radius is at least 25 mm (1 inch), other-

wise the cable will not transfer signals properly

and so this unit will not work properly.

• Route the optical cable so that nothing heavy

rests on it, and so that it cannot be stepped on or

caught in anything – for instance, a door.

• Make a loop of diameter at least 200 mm (7-7/8

rounding metalwork or fittings.

• Do not mount this 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

the cable does not get strained.

• When plugging the optical cable into the unit,

use the supplied cable clamps to prevent the

cable from being bent sharply.

• Route the optical cable so that it does not get

caught in moving parts such as the gear shift,

hand brake, or seat sliding mechanism. Keep the

cable away from hot spots, such as near the

heater outlet.

• If this unit is installed in the passenger compart-

ment, anchor it securely so it does not break free

while the car is moving, and cause injury or an

accident.

• If this unit is installed under a front seat, make

sure it does not obstruct seat movement. 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.

Do not close this area.

Mounting with velcro tape

Thoroughly wipe off the surface before affixing the velcro tape.

Using the corrugated tube

To prevent the optical cable from being strained, use the corrugated tube after cutting it to the cor- rect length.
