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 vehicle, it may cause an accident.
e Never use bolts or nuts from the vehicle's safety
devices for installation. if bolts or nuts from the
wheel, brakes or other safety devices are used for
installation of the monitor, it may cause an acci-
dent.
e Attach the wires correctly. If the wiring is not cor-
rectly performed, it may cause a fire or an acci-
dent. 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.
e Use with 12 volt DC negative ground vehicle. This
unit is only for use with a 12 volt DC negative
ground vehicle. It cannot be used in large trucks

q Identify All Leads
The first step in installation is to identify all the car
wires you'll use when hooking up your sound sys-
tem.
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 to the
stereo unit until you have made all connections.
If
there are no plastic caps on the stereo 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 the ignition on 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 cut radio connector plug.
Touch one wire at a time until you find the outlet that
causes 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 :
Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for radio
(RADIO), accessory (ACC), or ignition (IGN).
Battery Lead
If your stereo unit has a yellow lead, you will need to
