[. . . ] All that is required is a straight stretch of road of at least 100 m in length. The software also provides additional service functions for analysing any malfunctions in the navigation system. The system determines the distance travelled via a connection to the vehicle's speedometer signal. If there is no speedometer signal available, it will be necessary to have a wheel sensor mounted by an authorised customer service agent. The wheel sensor scans a magnetic strip which is glued to the wheel rim and delivers information on the distance travelled by the wheel. Due to automatic length adaptation, the magnetic strip must be applied to the non-driven left-hand wheel. The system recognises driving forwards and backwards by evaluating the back-up signal (forwards = 0 volts, backwards = 12 volts) received via the connection contact (RFLS) provided for that purpose. -3- Negative connection Screw the negative cable (brown) directly onto the chassis. Scratch the contact point for the ground down to the bare metal and grease it with anti-seize graphite petroleum (important for good grounding). Connecting the GPS antenna Safety instructions Mount the antenna only on a metal roof with magnetic properties (not suitable for aluminium). Do not mount the antenna on roofs covered with leather or synthetic materials. When mounted on a roof (held only by a magnet), the antenna must not be exposed to temperatures of less than -20 °C or more than +80 °C. If necessary, use protective sheathing to protect the antenna cable from being pinched. Make sure that the vehicle operating elements remain easily accessible and are not obstructed in any way by the connection cable and the location of the speaker (gear stick, hand brake, accelerator, clutch or brake pedals, etc. )!Before drilling the holes for the mounting screws, make sure that no damage will be done to covered wiring, the petrol tank or fuel lines! Installing the control unit Installing the display Safety instructions Never grease or oil the ball-and-socket joint. The monitor cable must be laid so that it is not subjected to any tensile strains or other loads. Do not mount the monitor within the inflation range of the airbags (on the driver's side, the passenger side or the side airbags) or where it might strike the head or knees of anyone in the vehicle in the event of an accident!Before drilling the holes for the mounting screws and wiring, make sure that no damage will be done to covered wiring, the petrol tank or fuel lines!Mount the control unit bracket in a location where the control unit will be easily accessible, e. g. Do not mount the control unit within the inflation range of the airbags (on the driver's side, the passenger side or the side airbags) or where it might strike the head or knees of anyone in the vehicle in the event of an accident!Before drilling the holes for the mounting screws, make sure that no damage will be done to covered wiring, the petrol tank or fuel lines!Make sure that the vehicle operating elements remain easily accessible and are not obstructed in any way (gear stick, hand brake, etc. )! Positive-negative connection Connect the negative cable (brown) directly with the negative cable of the navigation computer (same ground potential). Connect the positive cable (switched + 12 V) directly with the positive cable (switched + 12 V) of the navigation computer. Upon customer request, the lighting connection (orange) can be connected with vehicle terminal 58d. [. . . ] It is prohibited to screw the wheel sensor onto any loadbearing parts. Never drill holes in any load-bearing parts. Do not attach the sensor wiring to the brake lines or to any moving parts. The wheels must be tightened using the torque recommended by the manufacturer.
