Installing the
Handsfree Kit
Guidelines for Installation and
Connection
• Only qualified personnel should install this car kit. If
necessary, contact with vehicle manufacturer for air bag
information specific to the vehicle.
Caution: An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT
place objects, including communication equipment, in the
area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
If the communication equipment is improperly installed
and the air bag inflates, serious injury could occur.
• Mount components securely on strong surfaces to
prevent shifting that could cause injury or interfere with
safe vehicle operation. Always use the supplied
mounting hardware
• Mounted components and attached wires or cables must
not interfere with seating or leg space.
• Route cables so they are protected from pinching, sharp
edges, and crushing. Keep all in-line connectors easily
accessible.
• This car kit is intended for use in 12 volt negative ground
systems only. The car kit draws less than 3 amps.
Confirm that the vehicle’s electrical system can supply
this current.

7
Installation Procedure
Caution: This car kit must be connected to a maximum 5A
fuse in the car fuse panel to prevent fire or other damages if a
short circuit should occur somewhere in the Junction Box.
Before installation, unpack, assemble, and test all
components on a service bench.
Installing the Bluetooth
®
Junction Box
Mount the box using the screws provided.
The best location for the Bluetooth junction box is under the
dash. The box must be protected from dirt and moisture and
have adequate space for cooling and to allow for cable
connection.
For optimal Bluetooth performance, mount the junction box
so that the side with the barcode faces away from the
mounting surface.
The location MUST NOT interfere with the vehicle’s air bag
deployment.

8
Installing the Power Cable and Fuse Kit
Caution: Failure to follow these steps may cause the
accessory not to work properly and may cause damage to the
car kit.
1 Remove all fuses and tape them to their respective
holders. DO NOT re-insert fuses until you complete and
inspect all connections.
2 Connect the fuse kit’s GREEN Ignition Sense wire (3 amp
fuse) to an ignition-switched location on the fuse block.
When the ignition is off, the ignition sense line is low.

• Aim the microphone directly toward the driver.
• Do not allow anything (such as a rear-view mirror or sun visor) to
block the path between the microphone and the driver.
• Mount the microphone firmly so that vibrations do not affect audio
quality.
Note: The microphone should not be attached to the
car's visor.
