Mounting the monitor
7.2
General installation instructions
Caution!
a
Select the location of the monitor so that it cannot injure the passengers in the
vehicle under any circumstances (e. g. sudden braking, road traffic accidents).
Observe the following installation instructions:
Select an installation location that provides an unobstructed view of the monitor
(fig. 8, page 6 and fig. 9, page 6).
Never install the monitor in area where your head could impact it or in the air bag de-
ployment path. This could cause injury if the airbag opens.
The monitor must not impair your vision when driving (fig. 0, page 6).
The installation location should be flat.
Check that there is sufficient space underneath the installation location to attach the
washers and nuts.
Check beforehand that there is sufficient space on the other side for the drill head to
come out.
Bear in mind the weight of the monitor. Provide reinforcement if necessary (larger
washers or plates).
Ensure that you can lay the connection cable set to the monitor.

Installing the monitor
To perform the installation, proceed as follows (fig. c, page 8):
➤ Screw the monitor holder on to the monitor.
➤ Position the monitor and the attached monitor holder for testing.
➤ Mark the outlines of the corners of the monitor holder (2) on the dashboard.
➤ Unscrew the monitor holder from the monitor.
➤ Hold the monitor holder in the outlines marked beforehand and mark at least four
different drilling points (A).
Attaching the monitor holder using self-tapping screws
Note
I
This should only be done onto sheet steel with a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm.
The following should be observed when making drill holes in sheet metal:
– Check beforehand that there is sufficient room for the drill head to emerge
once the holes have been made.
– Using a hammer and centre punch, make a small dent to prevent the drill
head from slipping.
– Grind all drill holes and provide them with rust-protection.
➤ Drill a hole of Ø 4 mm on the previously marked points.
➤ Screw the monitor holder on using 5 x 20 mm self-tapping screws (B).
