INSTALLATION AND ELECTRIC DIAGRAM
To install the equipment, see the wiring diagram shown further on.
Avoid leaving visible cables in the cabin to leave the vehicle's aesthetics unaffected.
If there are any cables left disconnected, insulate them with tape; disconnected cables
making an undesired contact can cause a malfunction.
Electronic Unit
Place it on a hidden location for aesthetic purposes. Make sure that the
location allows some ventilation into the unit to avoid overheating.
Switchbox PW 3S
To facilitate the handling of the equipment, place the switchbox on a
location within the driver's reach, such as the console of the vehicle.

To clean the switchbox, gently wipe it with a dry cloth. Do not use water or
any solvent.
Loudspeaker
When selecting the location for the loudspeaker, keep in mind that while
this component is water resistant, it is not immersion-proof.
The loudspeaker must be placed as far as possible from the switchbox
(where the internal microphone is located) in order to avoid feedback.
External Microphones
The microphones require an assembly procedure, shown on the next page.
There are two recommended locations to place them, see the installation
instructions on the next page.
Internal Speaker
Place the speaker out of view, without affecting the sound.

Each microphone includes a shell to hold
it in place and protect it from the elements.
Depending on the installation procedure, it can
be more convenient to assemble microphone
and shell either before or after the wiring.
For instance, if the wiring requires to pull
the cable through a narrow space, it is
recommended to assemble after wiring.

Microphone + shell assembly procedure
1. Insert the cable in the shell by pressing it with your fi nger.
3. Remove the liner from the tape and stick it to the shell.
Location A
Inside the rearview mirror.
This location offers the highest
sound volume, yet the most
time consuming installation, as
it requires to take parts of the
vehicle apart.
Location B*
In the gap of the front doors.
Select a surface to place the
microphone, so that it faces to
the exterior from inside the gap.
Once the surface is selected,
the installation is fairly easy.
* WARNING!
On location B, place the
microphone slightly
downward to prevent
damage from water
clogging.
2. Push the microphone into the shell (do not pull the cable!).
4. Stick the shell on the selected surface, previously cleaned
with a 1:1 solution of isopropyl alcohol in water.
Recommended spots to install the microphones
There are two recommended spots in the vehicle
(see fi gure to the left), they differ with regard to ease
of installation and audio reception volume.
You can select a location according to your
preferences.
