WARNINGS 

PLEASE REVIEW BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION

 

 

 

Look through the entire manual to understand the installation process. 

 

Watch the tutorial videos that are found on the tablet. 

 

During the installation use the ‘BYPASS’ mode to move the LINK.  

 

Do not use the pendant or ‘PENDANT’ mode until you have reset the home position. 

 

The 

LINK

 is designed to ALWAYS use the original seat. The biggest challenge this will present for the installer will 

be extending the vehicle’s original seat wire harness, as this MUST be done. The general process does not vary, but 
the exact steps will vary due to the trim level, the model and seat options from the vehicle manufacturer. Keeping 
this in mind, we have made an effort to clearly describe the process required in this manual. However, it is possible 
that the pictures in this manual do not match exactly the specific vehicle you are working on.  

 

SEAT WIRING EXTENSION PROCESS  

The wiring must be extended 80 inches. This extension is placed near the seat connectors that are under the seat. 
The extension (80 inches) then passes under the 

LINK

 and loops around the back of the OEM seat – allowing the 

seat and the 

LINK

 to travel in and out of the vehicle. Depending on the make, model and seat options, there are 

components  that  must  be  disconnected,  bypassed  and/or  relocated.  On  vehicle  models  with  a  seat  position 
memory function, the forward/backward, tilt and height adjustments as well as seat memory are replaced by the 

LINK.

  However,  the  seat  recline  function  is  retained.  (EXAMPLE:  In  the  Ford  F150,  2009-2014  model;  the  seat 

height, tilt, forward and backward adjustment motors are disconnected and removed with the seat frame, but the 
recline motor is retained.  The control and memory box are relocated to the floor under the seat, next to the seat 
connectors.  The  seat  position  sensor  is  also  relocated  to  the  floor  under  the  seat.  The  wiring  harness  is  then 
extended from this point under the seat.)  

PLEASE NOTE: If the ignition is turned on while extending a wire harness that includes airbags, this may cause the 
airbag light to stay on following the installation. 
ADAPT SOLUTIONS CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FAULTY WIRE EXTENSIONS.  
Please use caution during the installation.  

 

ANDROID TABLET – LINK I.T. SOFTWARE 

If this is your first installation of a 

LINK

, you will have also purchased an Android tablet that is required for the 

installation and maintenance of the 

LINK

 product. This tablet will have the 

LINK IT

 software already installed. 

We have prepared quick, easy and to the point tutorial videos imbedded into the software. Take a moment and 
watch the video that shows  all the features of the tablet. To do this, open the 

LINK IT

  app and tap on ‘INFO’. 

Make sure your volume is turned up and tap on App-101. The video will start automatically.  

 

REDUCED POWER MODE 

A safeguard is integrated in the 

LINK 

system. Following any changes to the preset or sequence of the 

LINK

, the 

unit will enter a reduced power mode. This is to allow you to visually inspect the movements of the 

LINK

 to ensure 

it is not damaging the vehicle or itself during its first cycle. On the tablet, a yellow bar will appear at the top of the 
screen to indicate you are in reduced power mode. To exit, simply run the 

LINK 

a full cycle. NOTE: It is possible 

that the 

LINK

 will stop during this cycle as power is reduced. Visually confirm nothing is impeding the movements 

and then simply press the IN or OUT button again to continue the cycle. During the installation, if the 12V power is 
removed and replaced at the same time as the 9V battery (

LINK

 memory back up) is unplugged or fully drained, 

the 

LINK

 will enter reduced power mode. Simply run a full cycle to exit. PLEASE NOTE: You will find an explanation 

of this mode on a YELLOW tag attached to the hand pendant. Please explain the functions of the reduced power 
mode to the 

LINK

 user (your client).

Please have the serial number of the unit on hand before placing your call.
