Eclipse AVN827GA Installation Manual

 ･ Do not install this main unit in locations where it may obstruct the driver's view, or where it may endanger passengers in the vehicle, otherwise an 

accident or injury may result.

 ･ To prevent damage to the vehicle, confirm the locations of hoses, electrical wiring, and the fuel tank prior to drilling holes to install this main unit. Also, 

take precautions so that the main unit does not interfere, nor come in contact with them, otherwise a fire may result.

 ･ When installing this main unit, never use the existing nuts or bolts that secure parts of the fuel tank, or the steering, or braking systems, otherwise 

improper steering or braking or a fire may result.

 ･ To prevent a short circuit from occurring, disconnect the battery's negative terminal before installing this main unit, otherwise, an electric shock or injury 

may result.

 ･ When using an existing nut and/or bolt from the vehicle to ground this main unit, do not use any that secure parts of the steering or braking systems, 

otherwise, an accident may result.

 ･ Bundle wires and harnesses with electrical tape or wire ties to prevent them from interfering with moving parts. If they should entangle with the steering 

wheel, shift lever, or brake pedal, an accident may result.

 ･ Never supply power to another electrical appliance by splicing or tapping into this main unit's power wire, otherwise the current capacity of the wire will 

be exceeded, resulting in a fire or electric shock.

 ･ Never attempt to disassemble or modify the main unit, otherwise an accident, fire, or electric shock may result.

 ･ When installing the main unit into a vehicle with a passenger side air bag, do not secure it to the air bag's cover or in places where it may impede air 

bag deployment, otherwise proper air bag operation may not be ensured in the event of an accident, causing injury or death.

 ･ When making holes (example: drilling) be sure to wear protective eyewear, otherwise  an injury such as loss of eyesight may result.

 ･ Exposed wires must be insulated with electrical tape, otherwise a short circuit, fire, or electric shock may result.

 ･ Do not modify this system for use other than that specified herein. Also, do not deviate from the installation procedures described herein; ECLIPSE will 

not be held liable for damages including, but not limited to serious injury, death, or property damage resulting from installations that enable unintended 

operation.

 ･ This main unit is intended for operation in 12-volt DC, negative-grounded vehicles only. Never use it in 24-volt vehicles such as heavy trucks or diesel 

vehicle with cold-region specifications.

 ･ Do not place the vinyl storage bag over a person's head. It may cause a serious accident or death by suffocation.

 ･ Do not disassemble or rebuild this main unit. Doing so may cause an accident, fire, or electrical shock. 

 ･ When it is necessary to replace the fuse, always use a fuse of the correct rating (number of amperes). Use of fuses with higher amperage ratings may 

cause a fire.

 ･ Do not operate the main unit in a malfunctioning condition, for instance, when the audio does not play. Doing so may result in an accident, fire, or 

electrical shock.

 ･ If an abnormal situation occurs, such as foreign matter entering or liquid splashing on the main unit, or smoke or a strange odor emitting from the 

main unit, shut off the main unit immediately and consult the dealer from whom you purchased it. Continued operation may cause an accident, fire, or 

electrical shock.

 ･ For best results, this main unit should be installed by a professional installer. 

Contact the dealer whom you purchased the main unit for an appointment.

 ･ When installing this main unit, be sure to use the supplied mounting hardware. If parts other than those supplied are used, the main unit may be 

damaged internally, or may not be held in place securely and become dislodged.

 ･ Avoid installing this main unit in places where it may get wet, such as near windows, or in places that are moist or dusty. Presence of liquid, moisture, or 

dust inside this main unit can cause short circuiting resulting in smoke or fire.

 ･ If this main unit is not connected properly, a short circuit, fire, or accident may occur.

 ･ When routing wires, use precautions to prevent contact of sharp metal parts such as brackets or screw tips, otherwise a short circuit, electric shock, fire, 

or accident may result.

 ･ Play the audio at a moderate volume level that permits you to hear sounds from outside the vehicle. Driving without being able to hear outside sounds 

may result in an accident.

 ･ This main unit must be operated only as an on-board main unit, or it may cause electrical shock or injury.

 ･ Do not play distorted sounds for long periods of time; the speakers may overheat and cause a fire.

 ･ Once installation and wiring have been completed, return the brakes and electrical equipment such as lights, horn, hazard warning lights and turn 

signal lights to their original places, and check that they operate correctly. If you use the vehicle while any of this equipment is not working correctly, fire, 

electric shocks or accidents may occur.

 ･ Use supplied wire harness with this main unit.  Other manufacturers may use a similar wire harness connector but pin configurations are incorrect for 

use with ECLIPSE main units and can damage the main unit.  Prior to powering up the main unit, make sure the main unit is properly grounded with the 

vehicle chassis.  If no ground is available to the chassis, add a ground strap from the main unit to the vehicle chassis to improve the ground.

 ･ Do not use with speakers having 1 to 3 ohms impedance.  This main unit is designed to be used with high-powered speakers rated above 50 W with 

impedance rating between 4 and 8 ohms.
