BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY INSTALLATION
The MITO-02 is designed to be used in vehicles listed in
the applications that havethe Rockford Fosgate audio sys-
tem. The Rockford Fosgate system uses a digital signal to
turn on the amplifier. The MITO-02 supplies that digital sig-
nal to turn the amplifier on. When installing a radio that has
navigation built in, the MITO-02 can supply VSS (Vehicle
Speed Sense), Parking Brake, and Reverse; however
Reverse is not available on manual transmission vehicles.
