General notes on laying cables
Note
I
Cables and connections that are not properly installed will cause malfunctions
or damage to components. Correct installation of cables and connections en-
sures lasting and trouble-free operation of the retrofitted components.
Therefore, please observe the following instructions:
To prevent damage to the cables, when laying them, ensure that they are far enough
away from hot or moving vehicle components (exhaust pipes, drive shafts, light sys-
tems, fans, heater etc.).
When laying the cables, make sure:
–
They are not kinked or twisted
–
They do not rub on edges
–
They are not laid in sharp-edged ducts without protection
As far as possible, use original ducts for laying the cables, or other suitable options,
such as panelling edges, ventilation grilles or dummy plugs. If no openings are avail-
able, you must drill holes for the cables. Check beforehand that there is sufficient
space on the other side for the drill head to come out.
Protect every hole you drill against water penetration, e.g. by using a cable with a
sealant and by spraying the cable and the the cable sleeve with sealant.
Protect the cables from mechanical wear (for example rubbing against existing ca-
bles) using cable binders or insulating tape.
