1.5 Connecting the Signal Cable
Only one signal cable runs from the display unit to the antenna unit. In order to
minimize the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid where possible
routing the signal cable near other onboard electrical equipment. Also, avoid
running the cable in parallel with power cables. Pass the cable through the hole
and apply sealing compound around the hole for waterproofing.
1. Open the antenna cover by loosening four hex. bolts, and then fix the stay.
