□ Before Installation
Warning
• Do not install the monitor in a location which
obstructs driving, visibility or which is prohibited
by applicable laws and regulations
If the monitor is installed in a location which
obstructs forward visibility or operation of the air
bag or other safety equipment or which interferes
with operation of the car, it may cause an acci¬
dent
• Never use bolts or nuts from the car’s safety
devices for installation
If bolts or nuts from the wheel, brakes or other
safety devices are used for installation of the mon¬
itor, it may cause an accident
• Attach the wires correctly
If the wiring is not correctly performed, it may
cause a fire or an accident In particular, be sure to
run and secure the lead wire so that it does not get
tangled with a screw or the moving portion of a
seat rail
• Use with 12 V DC negative ground car
This unit is only for use with a 12 V DC negative
ground car It cannot be used in large trucks or
diesel cars which are 24 V DC car If it is used in
the wrong type of car, it may cause a fire or an
accident
( -^
Cautions.
• Use the specified fuse
Be sure to always use the specified fuse If a
fuse other than the specified fuse is used, it
may cause a fire or an accident
• Do not damage the cord by pinching or
pulling it
Do not pull or damage the cord If the cord is
not treated properly, it will short out or be
severed and may cause a fire or an accident
□ Required Tools
You’ll need the following
12 V DC test Electrical tape Slide-cut
bulb pliers
□ Identify All Leads
The first step in installation is to identify all the car
wires you’ll use when hooking up your LCD monitor
As you identify each wire, we suggest that you label
it using masking tape and a permanent marker This
will help avoid confusion when making connections
later
Note.
• Do not connect the power connector until you
have made all connections If there are no plastic
caps on the hooking wires, insulate all exposed
leads with electrical tape until you are ready to use
them Identify the leads in the following order
Power Lead
If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one
Cut the connector wires one at a time from the plug
(leaving the leads as long as possible) so that you
can work with individual leads
Turn on the ignition to the accessory position, and
ground one lead of the test bulb to the chassis
Touch the other lead of the test bulb to each of the
exposed wires from the radio connector plug Touch
one wire at a time until you find the outlet that caus¬
es the test bulb to light
Now turn the ignition off and then on If the bulb also
turns off and on, that outlet is the car power lead
If your car is not wired for an audio unit

□ Connect All Leads
Now that you have identified all the wires in the car,
you're ready to begin connecting them to the con¬
troller unit wires. The connection diagram (o pages
21, 22) shows the proper connections and color
coding of the leads.
We strongly recommend that you test the unit
before making a final installation.
You can set the unit on the floor and make tempo¬
rary connections to test the unit. Use electrical tape
to cover all exposed wires.
