• Run all ground (earth) leads to a common ground (earth) point.

• Do not get the leads trapped under a screw, or caught in moving parts (e.g., seat railing).

• Before making connections, turn the car ignition off to avoid short circuits.

• Connect the power supply lead to the unit and speakers before connecting it to the auxiliary power connector.

• Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected leads with electrical tape for safety.

• Choose the installation location carefully so that the unit will not interfere with normal driving operations.

• Avoid installing the unit in areas subject to dust, dirt, excessive vibration, or high temperature, such as in direct sunlight or near heater ducts.

• Use only the supplied mounting hardware for a safe and secure installation. Note on the power supply lead (yellow)When connecting this unit in combination with other stereo components, the amperage rating of the car circuit to which the unit is connected must be higher than the sum of each component’s fuse amperage rating. Mounting angle adjustment Adjust the mounting angle to less than 45°. Parts List for Installation

• This parts list does not include all the package contents.

• The bracket and the protection collar are attached to the unit before shipping. Before mounting the unit, use the release keys to remove the bracket from the unit. For details, see “Removing the protection collar and the bracket” (page 23).
