Installation Precautions
CAUTION
CAUTION
• Do not install the system in the locations 
described below. This may cause a fire, 
accident or electrical shock:
A location exposed to rain or dust.
A location interfering with the driver’s 
visual range or operation of the vehicle.
An unstable location, or where the system 
may fall.
• Do not install this unit in a place exposed to 
direct sunlight, heat or a place where the 
vent holes or heat radiation holes are 
covered.
• When you install the antenna, mount it in a 
place where the elements of the antenna do 
not protrude beyond the edge of the front, 
back, left and right of the vehicle.
• If it comes in contact with pedestrians, it 
may cause an accident.
Installation Notes
CAUTION
CAUTION
• Use only the supplied parts.
• If unspecified parts are used, they may 
cause damage.
• Any holes made in the body of the vehicle 
should be sealed with a silicon adhesive.
• If exhaust fumes or water penetrates into 
the vehicle, this may cause an accident.
• Fasten the bolts securely when installing 
the unit. If the bolts are loose an accident or 
malfunction could occur.
Connection Notes
CAUTION
CAUTION
• Verify wires with a digital multi-meter prior 
to making any connections.  Many new 
vehicles use multiplexed and/or low voltage 
circuits that can be damaged if a test light 
or logic probe is used.
• Connect cables appropriately. If a wrong 
connection is made, this may cause a fire or 
accident.
• When passing cables through the body of 
the vehicle, use non-conductive grommets.
• If the coatings of the cables are worn out by 
rubbing, this may cause an accident, fire or 
a short circuit.
• After wiring cables, fix them with insulation 
tape.
• Be sure to switch off the vehicle when 
connecting or disconnecting cords to/from 
the unit, otherwise an electric shock, injury 
or accident may occur.
 WARNING
• When installing the unit to a vehicle with 
an airbag system, never install it in a 
place where it may affect the operation of 
the airbag.
• Do not install this unit in the following 
locations:
A location interfering with the driver’s 
visual range or operation.
A location where the gear shift or brake 
pedal are hindered.
A location where passengers are at risk.
An unstable location, or where the 
system may fall.
 WARNING
• Please note the position of pipes, tanks 
and electrical wirings before installing 
the unit into the vehicle; failure in 
avoiding these may cause a fire or 
malfunction.
 WARNING
• Loom all cables according to the 
instruction manual, so as not to hinder 
operation.
• Wire the connecting cords/cables away 
from high temperature areas. If the 
coatings of the cables melt, it could 
cause an accident/fire by a short circuit.  
Take care when wiring in the engine 
compartment.
• When wiring the connecting cables in a 
vehicle with an airbag system, never feed 
the cables through a place where it may 
affect the operation of the airbag.
• An airbag not operating correctly in an 
emergency may cause increased injury.
