•
Read instructions fully before commencing fitment.
•
Use extreme caution in handling the radar. Damage caused by mishandling
is not warrantable.
•
A slimline number plate is recommended for improved approach angle.
•
The fitment of TJM products does not nullify the OE manufacturer's
operating guidelines and/or warnings. Ensure you are familiar with and
adhere to the usage instructions specified by the manufacturer in the
owner's manual or other official documentation
.
•
For vehicles with active park assist, ensure you read and understand the OE
manufacturer’s guidelines/limitations/warnings for parking aids. The driver
of the vehicle is ultimately responsible for its operation.
•
Left hand and Right hand components are determined as seated in the
vehicle.
•
Check for (and remove) any build up in all captive nuts fitted to the FPS.

Be aware that a number of government / fleet departments require that the
tow points be painted red.
•
Ensure that the “Rated Recovery Point Label” is affixed alongside the
compliance label, in the driver’s side doorjamb.
•
When fitting accessories to TJM products (ie. driving lights and aerials),
ensure suitable washer plates are used under the mounting surface that
allow the accessory to be secured in a way that prevents it from damaging
the product.
•
When removing protective coatings, ensure all new edges are deburred,
clean any swarf from the area and apply rust preventative to exposed
surfaces.
