WARNING
Do not disconnect the negative battery cable. Extensive reprogramming requirements will
otherwise be necessary. Wiring harnesses will be electrically active. It is therefore necessary to
exercise extreme caution while executing these installation instructions. Failure to do so could
result in severe vehicle damage, personal injury, or death from electrical shock. Keep the ignition
and radio powered OFF through the final test.
MOST Notes
•
Optical fibers damage easily; handle optical fibers with care to prevent cuts, nicks, abrasions, kinks,
and crushing.
•
Minimum bend radius for optical fibers is 25 mm.
•
Optical fiber “ring configurations” must form a closed loop to function (i.e. couple the input of a
component with the output of the preceding component).
•
Identify MOST optical fibers cables by their orange or yellow, semi-rigid insulation.
•
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from bundled vehicle electrical harnesses does not affect optical
fibers.
