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 30° from horizontal, the unit might not give its optimum performance. (Fig. 7) • 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. • Do not mount this unit on the spare tire board or any other unstable place. • Do not mount this unit anywhere that gets the sun and so becomes hot, like on the dashboard or the rear shelf. • Mount this unit on a flat surface.
