Preparing For Installation

Some installations are not straightforward and must be completed by an Authorized Installer to ensure a secure installation.

Ensure you use enough cable ties to secure both the device and the harness to the vehicle. An unsecure device can result in poor electric and/or data connections, which can lead to short circuits and fires or cause malfunctions of vehicle controls that can result in serious personal injury or significant damage to the vehicle.

Some examples requiring professional installation from an Authorized Installer are:

The OBD port location is such that the device could protrude or interfere when entering or exiting the vehicle, or located where it could be inadvertently kicked or bumped during vehicle operation. The device isn't fully secured and may be able to vibrate loose or get kicked or knocked. An electrical harness or additional wiring is required.

Vehicle mounting modifications are required to secure the device, such as removing of panels. The OBD connector has been deformed/damaged or there is physical damage visible to the electrical wiring.

The device does not power on and beep six times when first installed.

The installer questions their ability to complete a secure installation according to these instructions.

Do not attempt to install, reconfigure or remove any product from a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or otherwise in operation. Any installation, configuration, or removal must be done only in stationary vehicles that are securely parked.
