PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
Roll down window to avoid locking keys
in
vehicle
during installation
Avoid mounting components or routing wires near
hot surfaces
Avoid mounting components or routing wires near
moving parts
Tape or loom wires under hood for protection and
appearance
Use a Digital Multi Meter for testing and verifying
circuits. DO NOT USE A TEST LIGHT,
OR
"COMPUTER SAFE PROBE" as these can set off air
bags
or
damage vehicle computers.
