Mechanical Installation; Removing And Replacing The Front Control Panel - Renkforce RF-RUDAB1805 Notice D'emploi

8. Mechanical Installation

In most vehicles the producers plan an installation cut-out for the car radio. The choice of the location depends on
safety aspects. Therefore we recommend that you actually install the radio in this place.
The device requires a DIN installation cut-out with the dimensions 182 x 53 mm; these dimensions are standardized
and usually the vehicle manufacturers comply with them.
Should there be no slot, please ask your car dealer about the correct place of installation for your car radio.
Please select the place of installation carefully so that the device neither influences the driver's activity nor
distracts him from the traffic.
Use the supplied installation material to guarantee a safe installation.
Any changes in the vehicle that become necessary for the installation of the car radio or other components
must be carried out in such a way that neither traffic security nor the stability of the car are affected. With
many cars, the type approval will lapse if you merely saw out a section of the sheet metal.
Since the device creates heat during operation, the place of installation must be heat-resistant.
Before drilling the attachment holes, make sure that no electric cables, brake lines, the fuel tank or similar
are damaged.
When using tools to install your car hi-fi components, observe the manufacturer's safety information.
When installing the car hi-fi system, take into consideration the risk of accident which can arise from
devices being torn away in the case of an accident. Therefore, you should secure every component in a
place where it cannot be dangerous to passengers.
Before you install the system, check the depth of the installation recess. A depth of at least 120 mm is
needed for installation.
