Find a good route for the cable to the front of 
the  vehicle  or  to  the  area  where  it  will  be 
connected  to  the  vehicles  electrical  system. 
The principal idea for the routing of the cable 
loom is as follows: cable should run under the 
vehicle  to  a  place  where  you  can  enter  the 
vehicle.  Try  to  find  a  dry  place  for  the  4  pin 
connector in the cable loom inside the vehicle 

There  are  two  possible  operations  of  the 
step. 

 

1  -  Door  switch.  Steps  moves  out 
automatically when the door opens 

  

2 - Driver operated switch on the dashboard 
where  the  driver  operates  the  step.  In  this 
case,  it  is  still  recommended  that  the  door 
switch  in  installed.  Without  the  door  switch 
the driver could forget to close the step when 
the  door  is closed,  and  drive  away  with  an 
open step. 
 
Connect  the  green  wire  at  the  handbrake 
switch  or  other  signal  indicating  that  the 
vehicle  is  stationary.  You  need  a  signal 
when  the  vehicle  is  stationary.  The 
handbrake  switch  is  not  supplied  with  the 
step. 

  

For  safety  reasons  we  recommend  this 
signal is used. 

If you decide not to use this 
signal Acdeos cannot 
take any responsibility 
for any unsafe 
operation of the step.
