•  Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal before wiring and mounting.
•  Do not connect Battery wire (yellow) and Ignition wire (red) to the car chassis or Ground wire 
(black) to prevent a short circuit.

  – Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.
  – Secure the wires with cable clamps and wrap vinyl tape around the wires that come in contact 
with metal parts to protect the wires.
 CAUTION
•  Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal parts of this unit during

•  Do not connect the 
 wires of speakers to the car chassis or Ground wire (black), or connect 
them in parallel.

and off by the ignition key.
•  Keep all cables away from heat dissipate metal parts.
•  After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are 
working properly.
