Installation
General
The display should be installed in the airplane in a manner that the pilot can read the indicators and operate
the Mode button. The illuminated LED’s enable optimal readings of the indicators when direct sunlight falls
onto the display.
There is a small opening on the lower edge for the sound source – it is forbidden to close the opening with
glue or other foreign objects. In order to ensure a full volume signal, a distance of minimum 10mm is required
from other objects/instruments.
In order to avoid possible influences on the magnetic compass the display should be installed at least 25cm
away.
Plug opening
In order to fit the external display onto the instrument panel an appropriate opening for the plug is necessary.

with square opening 16 x 16 mm
with round opening Ø 20 mm
Adhesive attachment
For installation of the display an adhesive attachment proves to be the most practical method. For this
purpose two pre-cut double-sided mounting adhesives are included.
For clean smooth surfaces the thinner adhesive should be used; for rougher surfaces the foam adhesive is
the preferred choice.
Attention:
in order to guarantee optimal adhesion, the surface must be absolutely clean and free from oil
when applying the adhesive. The adhesion strengthens further within 24h after application.
Tip:
to remove the sticker from display, manual force should be avoided. Also not recommended is raising
the sticker from one side with a metal object (e.g. screwdriver) – these actions can result in mechanical
pressure being applied directly to the electronic display panel which can lead to cracks and damage of the
unit.
It is recommended instead to use a knife, cut all around under the display until it can be lifted away from
adhesive sticker with minimal force. Afterwards the adhesive sticker can be easily removed by hand – do not
use any solvents on the display to avoid penetration and possible damage to display.
Adhesive sticker sets for new installations are available from the distributor.
