Safety instructions
Note: We advise our customers to have the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet installed by a Parrot
certified installer.
Turn the ignition off before installing the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet.
Install the Parrot ASTEROID only on vehicles with a 12 V battery. If your vehicle (e.g. :
truck) has a 24V battery, the use of a step-down converter is essential.
Place all cables away from hot places (heater outlet) and moving parts (gear shift,
seat rails...).
Before you begin
Note:
We advise our customers to have the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet fitted by a certified
Parrot installer.
Installing the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet is done by inserting it between the car stereo
and the speaker system.
Note:
If your car stereo is not fitted with ISO connectors, you need to purchase an ISO
adapter cable to simplify the wiring procedure. Refer to the Vehicle compatibility section
on the Parrot ASTEROID Tablet support page to check whether an ISO adapter is necessary
on your vehicle.
Start by removing the car stereo from your vehicle. You may need release keys to do so.
Refer to your car stereo’s wiring diagram.
Before you install the individual components, check that the installation locations
have been selected in such a way that the cable length is sufficient to connect every
element. Once the installation is complete, make sure that no cables are pinched or
trapped.
The connection number indications in the next sections correspond to the
connections represented on the diagrams.
