Operation Manual

Of special note
Should an object or a liquid enter the housing, separate the equipment from the
power supply immediately and leave the checking out to a specialist, before you use it
again.
Position the equipment in a place where sufficient air circulation is guaranteed and
where no heat source is in its proximity. This avoids an internal build-up of heat and
ensures a long life.
Do not stand anything on the equipment - if the ventilation holes are blocked, this
can lead to malfunctioning.
Switch the receiver off before connecting the other equipment.
If you notice an unusual smell or smoke, the equipment should be separated from the
power supply and the checking-out left to a specialist.
The equipment must be connected directly to the vehicle’s battery with 2.5 mm
2
to 6.00
mm
2
cross-section cables. Check to insure that the equipment is not connected to an
electronically controlled battery charger.
The equipment requires well-filtered 12V (11,0V – 16,0V) DC power supply. Direct
connection to any kind of battery charging equipment will lead to malfunction and can
damage the equipment.
Any connection to an AC (eg: mains) power supply will immediately destroy the
equipment and any connected systems.
Any use of improper power supply will void the warranty.
Ensure that all cabling and equipment parts are located away from possible sources of
interference such as mobile telephones, electronic heating controls or radio equipment.
For the connection of the external unit (receiving antenna) only use the supplied cable
set or the extension cable set which can be supplied as an accessory.
