Installation...
The 295HFS6, although technologically advanced, is simple to install. An aftermarket center
console is recommended for the mounting location of the 295HFS6. This not only allows the driver to reach
the controls easily, but also keeps the unit safely out of the path of the vehicle’s SRS air-bag. Follow the
console manufacturer’s instructions for mounting information. If a console-type mount is not possible, the
295HFS6 includes a bail strap mounting kit for over- or under-dash mounting.
Important Note!
If dash mounting is chosen, the installer
must
confirm that the unit is not being installed
in an air-bag deployment zone. Failure to do so could result in the interference of the air-bag’s ability to
function properly. The air-bag deployment zones can be found in the vehicle’s owner manual. The same
precautions apply when selecting the microphone hanger location.
The following steps will guide you through the installation process:
Connections For The 12 Position Input Harness
Connecting The Power & Ground wires (Red and Black)
1.
Remove the driver’s side front seat.
2.
Remove the front, driver’s side rocker sill plate and kick panel.
3.
Fold back the floor covering so that access is gained to the factory wire harness routed under the
driver’s seat area.
4.
Insert the wiring harness into it’s port as shown in Fig. 1.
5.
Extend the two RED and two BLACK wires, from the 12-position connector on the rear panel of the
295HFS6, toward the sill plate location. Follow the same path as the factory wire harness.
WARNING:
All customer supplied wires that connect to the POSITIVE (+) terminal of the battery must be
sized to supply at least 125% of the maximum operating current and be fused “at the battery” to carry that
load!
6.
Continue to follow the factory harness through the firewall. To pass the RED and BLACK wires
through, it may be necessary to drill a hole in the firewall. If so, be absolutely sure that there are no
components that could be damaged by drilling. After the hole is drilled, insert a grommet to protect the
wires.
7.
Route the RED and BLACK wires along the factory harness towards the battery.
8.
Install a 20 amp fuse block (user supplied) on the end of the RED wires.

READ BEFORE INSTALLING!!!
Do not install this product or route any wires in
the deployment area of your airbag. Equipment

will damage or reduce the effectiveness of the
airbag, or become a projectile that could cause
serious personal injury or death. Refer to your
vehicle owners manual for the air bag deployment
area.
The User/Installer assumes full responsibility to
determine proper mounting location, based on
providing ultimate safety to all passengers inside
the vehicle. Whelen Engineering Company
