Precautions before
connecting the system
CAUTION
!
If you decide to perform the installation
yourself, and have special training and ex-
perience in the mobile electronics instal-
lations, please carefully follow all of the
steps in the installation manual.
!
Secure all wiring with cable clamps or
electrical tape. Do not allow any bare wir-
ing to remain exposed.
!
It is extremely dangerous to allow the
cables to become wound around the steer-
ing column or gearstick. Be sure to install
this product, its cables, and wiring away
in such a way that they will not obstruct
or hinder driving.
!
Make sure that the cables and wires are
routed and secured so they will not inter-
fere with or become caught in any of the
vehicle
’
s moving parts, especially the
steering wheel, gearstick, handbrake, slid-
ing seat tracks, doors, or any of the vehi-
cle
’
s controls.
!
Do not route wires where they will be ex-
posed to high temperatures. If the insula-
tion heats up, wires may become
damaged, resulting in a short circuit or
malfunction and permanent damage to
the product.
!
Do not cut the GPS aerial cable to shorten
it or use an extension to make it longer.
Altering the aerial cable could result in a
short circuit or malfunction.
!
Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the
protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse resis-
tor or filter, etc.) may fail to work properly.
!
Never feed power to other electronic pro-
ducts by cutting the insulation of the
power supply lead of the navigation sys-
tem and tapping into the lead. The current
capacity of the lead will be exceeded,
causing overheating.
Before installing this product
!
Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and ne-
gative earthing only. Failure to do so may
result in a fire or malfunction.
!
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be
sure to disconnect the (
–
) battery cable be-
fore beginning installation.
