Installation

Note:

Before finally installing the unit, connect the wiring temporarily, making sure it is all connected up properly, and the unit and the system work properly.

Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts can cause malfunctions.

Consult with your nearest dealer if installation requires the drilling of holes or other modifications of the vehicle.

Install the unit where it does not get in the driver’s way and cannot injure the passenger if there is a sudden stop, like an emergency stop.

The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it overheats, so don’t install the unit anywhere hot

— for instance, near a heater outlet.

If installation angle exceeds 60° from horizontal, the unit might not give its optimum performance. (Fig. 6)
