Warning and Safety Information
Safety Precautions
Be sure to observe the following warnings. Failure to follow these safety instructions
and warnings may result in aserious accident and/or personal injury.
•Install
the cables and wiring so that it is not crimped or pinched by screws or

through ametal hole, be sure to use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire's insula-
tion from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.

cle's owner's manual or aservice technician prior to removing the battery positive
or ground connection, as it may cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system or
require reprogramming of the vehicle's computer-controlled devices.
• Do not operate any function that takes your attention away from safely driving your
vehicle. Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be per-
formed after coming to a complete stop. Always stop the vehicle in asafe location
before performing these functions. Failure to do so may result in an accident.

electric shock or product damage.
