Installation Connecting and installing the optical cable connection box Connecting the optical cable • Connect the optical cable to the optical cable connection box. Optical cable Installing the optical cable connection box • When installing the optical cable connection box with the velcro tape. Install the optical cable connection box using the velcro tape in the ample space of the console box. Velcro tape (hard) Velcro tape (soft) • When installing the optical cable connection box with the lock tie. Wrap the optical cable and connection box with the protection tape and fasten with the power code using the lock tie. Wrap with the protection tape Fasten with the lock tie 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. • When mounting this unit, make sure none of the leads are trapped between this unit and the surrounding 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 behind where you want to drill the holes. Do not drill into the gas line, brake line, electrical wiring or other important parts. • If this unit is installed in the passenger compartment, 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. Installing the unit Mounting with brackets Tapping screw (4 × 12 mm) Screw (4 × 8 mm) Bracket Car mat or chassis Drill 2 to 2.5 mm diameter holes. Do not close this area. Mounting with velcro tape Thoroughly wipe off the surface before affixing the velcro tape. Velcro tape 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), otherwise 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 inches) with the remaining optical cable so that 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. Using the corrugated tube To prevent the optical cable from being strained, use the corrugated tube after cutting it to the correct length. • Insert the optical cable into the corrugated tube. Optical cable Mounting the clamp The clamp is used to secure the optical cable when using it. The other clamp is installed on the back side of the head unit similarly and used to secure the optical cable. 1. Insert the clamp in the direction indicated in the figure, and turn it 90 degrees to lock. Clamp 2. Secure the optical cable. Optical cable Corrugated tube Car mat or chassis
