ATTENTION
• Please disconnect the battery cable while conducting wiring operations. Failure to do so
may result in electrical shock or injury.
• Please confirm that the electrical components of the vehicle operate normally. Also, please
make an note of data in the memory of the electrical components such as the radio. This
will help avoid problems that may arise when performing the repair check after the installation.
• When tightening bolts or screws, use the proper tools and the proper size, and comply for
the specified torque specified for the part.
Failure to securely tighten the bolt and nut may cause them to loosen and fall off, causing
damage.
• When removing the connector from the vehicle, remember to remove the lock that holds
the main body of the connector, instead of pulling the lead line.
This protects against a lead wire cuts, etc.

• Please be sure to properly connect the connector and terminal. This helps to avoid a poor
connection.
• When wiring the harness(wiring), clamp the wires together along with the wiring harness
of the vehicle. This protects the harness from becoming entangled or causing strange
sounds.
• When connecting or disconnecting parts or installing or removing the finisher, etc, be careful
not to let the harness be hooked or pulled from the back. This protects against a cut
wire or shorts.
• Be careful not to forcefully pull the wiring harness of the vehicle. This helps prevent the
connector from being disconnected, and the wires from being cut or damaged.
• After installing the wiring, perform an operations check on the newly installed parts before
reassembling. This helps prevent mis-wiring.
