INTRODUCTION
This operations manual has been prepared to
provide a thorough description on how to interface
and operate the iPod with your OEM car stereo. All
vehicles require different PIE interfaces and
installation techniques. The information given is for
guidance and each installer should make necessary
decisions that are not covered by this guide.
Precision Interface Electronics strongly recommends
professional installation of all aftermarket equipment.
The terms of warranty demand that professional
assistance of an experienced installer be present, as
the installation requires special tools and knowledge.
Please read the installation guide thoroughly, making
special note to the warning section, before beginning
installation.
WARNINGS
1.
Ensure that the vehicle’s battery terminal (-) is
disconnected before installation. Disconnecting the
battery terminal before installing this interface
ensures proper synchronization and helps avoid
possible synchronization errors.
2.
Ensure that normal control and operation of the
vehicle is not impaired by the installation, mounting
all pieces securely and preventing interference to
necessary vehicle operation.
3.
This interface is suitable for use only in vehicles
with 12-volt negative grounding. Use on other supply
voltages or alternative polarity will damage the
equipment.
