Installation guide

Installation notes

Preparing to install Highway

Highway can be installed in any dashboard that has an opening matching the dimensions shown in the diagram below. The dashboard needs to be 4.75mm - 5.56mm thick in order to be able to support Highway.

Note: Always insert the mounting sleeve into the dashboard before fitting the head unit.

Installing a digital radio antenna

Highway is designed to work with an active digital radio antenna. Before installing the Highway head unit ensure that you have installed an appropriate digital radio antenna in your vehicle. Refer to your digital radio antenna installation guide for more information.

Digital radio antenna setting

Highway features an SMB type digital radio antenna connector and should be used with an automotive antenna appropriate for your vehicle and geographical area (e.g. band 3 for UK use).

An antenna is not supplied with the product in order to allow an appropriate antenna to be used for your specific vehicle needs.

Antenna power for Active Antennas:

As many automotive antennas have an amplifier either built-in, or in-line with the cable connected to the car stereo, this product provides power at 12 volts along the centre of the digital antenna connector (centre pin of SMB connector). Most active automotive digital radio antennas work on 12 volts. However, some may be designed to operate at other voltages, e.g. 5 volts. The antenna power output from the product is set to 'Active', i.e. 12 volts ON, from production (shown as 'DAB ANT ACTIVE' in the system menu). If your chosen antenna does not have an amplifier (i.e. it is 'PASSIVE'), please set the antenna power to 'PASSIVE' using the following steps before connecting the antenna to Highway:

1. Press and hold the DISP button until 'CLOCK' appears on the top line of the display. This shows that you have entered the system menu.
2. Press the button repeatedly until 'DAB ANT' appears on the top line of the display.
3. Turn the VOLUME dial until 'PASSIVE' appears on the second line of the display.
4. Press the DISP button once to confirm the new antenna setting and return to the previous screen.

If your chosen antenna operates at a different voltage to the 12 volts supplied by Highway, then an in-line voltage regulator must be used to correct the voltage to the level required by the antenna BEFORE connecting the antenna to Highway. The antenna power should then be set to 'ACTIVE' using the previous steps (Highway is set to 'ACTIVE' from the factory).

Under no circumstances should a separate power supply at either 12 volts, or any other voltage, be provided in-line with the antenna connection with the antenna power set to either 'ACTIVE', or 'PASSIVE' as this will present power to the product through the centre of the antenna cable and will cause damage to the product not covered by the warranty.

WARNING - Connecting an active antenna that is not designed to operate at 12 volts to the SMB Digital Radio Antenna Connector on Highway may cause damage to the antenna or Highway, which is not covered by the warranty.

Installing the microphone

You will need to install the included microphone to make handsfree phone calls using Highway and your mobile phone.

Note: Do not install Highway's microphone in noisy areas within your vehicle, such as near air vents.

1. Loosen any trim panels.
2. Use the supplied clip to attach the microphone to the sun visor above the driving position (A).
3. Route the cable behind the trim panels (B) and leave the microphone connector hanging out of the dashboard (C), ready for connecting to the head unit.
4. Secure the cable using the supplied self-adhesive clip.
5. Return all the trim panels to their original positions.

CAUTION: Do not route the microphone or any other cables across airbags as they may not operate as intended in the event of a collision. Cables should be secured away from airbag deployment zones. Take extra care when working around airbags.

Installing the Highway head unit

1. Insert the mounting sleeve into the dashboard. Fix it firmly in place by folding down the metal tabs.
2. Connect the audio, microphone, FM/MW antenna and electrical cables to the back of Highway (see page 18).
3. Install the detachable panel (see opposite) and test Highway to check that all audio functions are working properly.
4. Connect the digital antenna cable.

Note: See page 19 before connecting the digital antenna cable.

1. Remove the two protective screws on the top of Highway so that the CD function works and slide Highway into the mounting sleeve and push to secure in place.
2. Attach the outer trim frame.

If you are not sure how to install this unit correctly, contact a qualified technician.

Installing the detachable panel

1. Line up the groove on the right side of the face panel with the slot on the unit.
2. Press down the left side of the face plate until it clicks into the panel slot.

Carrying out a factory reset

1. Remove the detachable panel as described on page 5.
2. Press the RESET button with a pointed object to reset Highway to factory settings.
3. Replace the detachable panel as described on page 5.

Note: Pressing the RESET button will erase the clock setting and stored stations.

Removing the Highway head unit

1. Power off Highway.
2. Remove the detachable panel as described on page 5.
3. Remove the outer trim frame.
4. Insert the L-key removal tools into the slots on the front of Highway until they lock (as shown in the diagram below).
5. Pull out Highway and disconnect all cables.
