type.
1.
Remove the vehicle ignition key and disconnect
the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2.
Set number of cylinders in your engine using the

vehicles.)
4.
Connect the signal cable leads to the ECU (refer
to section on ECU connections).
Use the solderless connectors to connect the signal
cable to the ECU leads without cutting the wires connected to
the ECU. Do not touch the battery terminals directly.
Depending on the vehicle model, if the length
of the signal cable supplied is insufficient, then you will
need to obtain additional wire of the same quality and gauge.
Do not touch the battery terminal directly.
5.
Before reconnecting the battery, make sure that
all connections are correct and tight.
6.
Connect the display unit cable to the control
unit. (Make sure that the connector is correctly aligned).

Reconnect the negative(-) terminal on the battery.
8.
Start the engine.
9.
Confirm that the product is performing correctly
according to the operating manual.
10.
Cut a portion of the double sided adhesive tape
provided with the product and attach it to the stand. The remainder
will be used to attach the control unit in place.
11.
Use the double-sided adhesive tape to attach the
stand and the display unit in a convenient location.
12.
Switch off the vehicle ignition, disconnect signal
and display unit cables from control unit.
13.
Attach the control unit in suitable location with
the double sided adhesive tape.
14.
Attach signal and display unit cables to the control
unit. Make sure to align the connectors correctly.
15.
Attach the display film in a location that allows
the image of the display to be reflected into the driver's line
of sight.
16.
Test drive the vehicle to ensure display corresponds
to vehicle's original equipment manufacturer instruments.
NOTE : Readings on the display may differ slightly from the
vehicle's original equipment manufacturer instrument, however
slight variations are normal because of different calibrations
of the OEM instruments, variations in tire size and other factors.
How to attach the display film
1.
Before attaching the display film,
clean the inside of the windshield.
2.
To separate the film
from the backing paper, attach adhesive tape to film and the
backing paper about 2cm(4/5 in.) from the edge of the film and
use the adhesive tape to pull the display film from its backing.
3.
Spray a mixture of water and mild detergent(1 to 2 the drops)
on the windshield and on the side of the film to be applied
to the windshield.
Apply the film to the windshield. Gently squeeze out excess
any water or air bubbles from under the film and gently wipe
any extra water away with a tissue or soft cloth. Do not scratch
the film with the tissue or cloth.
Make sure that both the display unit and the control
unit are firmly attached.
Make sure that the display can be viewed on a
portion of the bottom 5in.(130mm) of the windshield.
Attach the display unit in a location which will
not hinder driving.
The display is viewable even without the display
film. The trancemittance of the display film is about 45%. We
are not responsible for any damage or problems arising from
the use of the display film applied on the windshield. Please
follow local regulations as for attaching the display film.
We, Nippon Seiki Co., Ltd., are not responsible
for any damage to the vehicle arising from the use on application
of the display film on windshield.
Please note that the laws of certain states prohibit applications
of materials to a vehicle windshield other than in certain locations.
For example, California Vehicle Code Section 26708(b) limits
application of stickers or other materials to a 5-inch square
area in the lower corner of the windshield nearest the driver.
On certain vehicle models, installation of the transparent
film in such a location may be impractical, because limited
clearance between the dashboard and the windshield may preclude
attachment of the display unit to the dashboard at a position
that will enable the driver effectively to view the reflection
of the instrument display on the transparent film.
Please consult the laws of the jurisdiction in which you
intend to operate your vehicle to determine whether similar
laws or regulations would apply to you and if so, please examine
the relative configuration of you dashboard and windshield
to determine whether installation of the display unit as described
in the installation manual will conform to requirements of
local law.
Nippon Seiki Co.,Ltd., does not encourage installation of
the products in violation of local laws or regulations and
shall not be responsible for failure to obey local laws or
regulations.
