keys as far as they will go (with the notches facing up) into the appropriate slots at the center
of the left and right sides of the unit. Then slide the sleeve off the back of the unit.
6. Mount the sleeve by inserting it into the opening of the dashboard and bend open the tabs
located around the sleeve with a screwdriver. Not all tabs will be able to make contact, so
examine the opening to determine which tabs will be most effective. Bend open the
appropriate tabs behind the dashboard to secure the sleeve in place.

8. Slide the unit into the sleeve until it locks into place.
9. To further secure the unit, use the supplied metal strap to secure the back of the unit in place.
Use the supplied hardware (Hex Nut (M5mm) and Spring Washer) to attach one end of the
strap to the mounting bolt on the back of the unit. If necessary, bend the metal strap to fit your
vehicle’s mounting surface. Then use the supplied hardware (Tapping Screw (5x25mm) and
Plain Washer) to attach the other end of the metal strap to a solid metal part of the vehicle
under the dashboard. This strap also helps ensure proper electrical grounding of the unit.
