2. Make the proper input and output wire
connections for each unit.
3. Connect the wiring harness wires in the following
order: ground, battery, ignition.
Installation location and cleaning
Select for installation a location where the stand can
be placed completely horizontal shown in Figure A.
Do not install in locations where the entire support is
at a diagonal such as in Figure B or where the display
unit is facing down such as in Figure C.
4. Connect the wiring harness connector to the unit.
5. Install the unit in your car.
6. Reconnect the - battery.
B
A
C
2WARNING
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire
(yellow) to the car chassis (ground), you may cause a short
circuit, that in turn may start a fire. Always connect those
wires to the power source running through the fuse box.
¤
¤
•
Thoroughly wipe away and dust or grease from the
installation location using a cloth which has been soaked in
a neutral cleaning agent and wrung out. Attach the stand
after allowing the installation location to dry.
Do not attach the double-sided tape more than once or
touch the adhesive with your fingers as this will weaken its
adhesive strength.
If the temperature of the surface of the installation location
is low, warm it up using a heater or other means before
attaching the stand. Low temperature may weaken the
adhesive strength of the tape.
•
Do not install the controller and display unit on the surface
where your vision is blocked and driving interfered.
Before installation, check that no fuel tank, pipe, nor wire
exists at backside of the mounting surface, to prevent
screws from penetrating into such component.
Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and
experience. For safety’s sake, leave the mounting and wiring
work to professionals.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC power
supply.
Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct sunlight
or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places with too
much dust or the possibility of water splashing.
Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws provided.
If you use the wrong screws, you could damage the unit.
If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC position, connect
the ignition wires to a power source that can be turned on
and off with the ignition key. If you connect the ignition
wire to a power source with a constant voltage supply, as
with battery wires, the battery may die.
•
The supplied stand is specially intended for this product. Do
not use it with another display.
•
•
•
•
•
If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires aren’t touching
to cause a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one
with the same rating.
Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar
material. To prevent a short circuit, do not remove the caps
on the ends of the unconnected wires or the terminals.
After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.
