before connecting the main 15-pin
connector harness to the main unit.
• Mount the main unit in a secure area, away
from vehicle computers and heating/air
conditioning ducts. Mount the unit as far
away from metal objects as possible to
increase the range of the remote
transmitters.
• When running the harness wires through
the vehicle, be careful to run them where
they cannot be damaged or shorted. Keep
them away from any moving parts or areas of
high heat. Use rubber or plastic grommets to
protect the harness wires where they pass
through holes in metal panels.
