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.
