INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
VERSION WITH EXTERNAL CABLE GLAND (FIG. F)
The external cable gland should not be so far from the turntable that the junction between the two cables
projecting from the turntable and the extension cables cannot lie within the interior of the vehicle.
Arrange the cables in the cable duct when placing the turntable on to the mounting plate. Make sure that
the cables are not crossed over and that they are taut so that they cannot be crushed. Do not try to pull
the cables from the unit. This could damage the cables or loosen the cable connections.
Place the turntable carefully on the mounting plate. The through holes on the turntable must be perfectly
aligned with the threads on the mounting plate.
Apply a little adhesive sealant to the six threaded holes in the mounting plate and screw the fastening
screws into the thread. Tighten the screws to a torque of 6 Nm.
The connecting cables should be fed¹
)
into the interior of the vehicle through a waterproof cable gland.
In so doing the cables may not be crushed, kinked or damaged.
