3. Important Safety Information
3.1 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Federal, national or local health, and safety regulations may
require wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE). PPE may include items such as safety glasses, safety
shoes, work gloves, hard hat, high visibility vest, and work
uniform. Make sure to comply with appropriate standards, and
check with customers or third parties to verify whether they have
additional PPE requirements.
3.2 INSTALLATION
• Installers and contractors must follow all health and safety
regulatory requirements to ensure a safe and healthy work
environment.
• Set the parking brake whenever the equipment is parked.
Equipment parked on inclines shall have the wheels chocked
and the parking brake set.
• Equipment, or parts thereof, which are suspended or held
aloft by use of slings, hoists, or jacks shall be substantially
blocked or cribbed to prevent falling or shifting before
employees are permitted to work under or between them.
• Installing and servicing electronic devices can be hazardous
due to electrical components. Make sure to create a safe
working environment to avoid hazards and to ensure correct
and safe installation and operation.
• EROAD recommends the use of a qualified professional
automotive technician to install the Ehubo. Make this
Installation Guide available to the appropriate personnel. Store
it for future reference.
• Do not run cables close to heat sources, sharp edges or other
obstacles that might damage them.
• Do not run cables directly next to safety-relevant devices.
• Place all wiring under the dash to avoid creating a hazard.
• Do not damage existing wiring and components when drilling
the dashboard.
• Some countries and states prohibit the installation of global
positioning system (GPS) driver aids on windshields. Some
areas might allow installation of the Ehubo on the windshield.
It should be positioned as low as possible and closest to the
driver door to minimize obstruction of the driver’s field of
view.
• Avoid fitting the Ehubo in a location that could cause injury
to a driver or passenger in a crash. This includes potential
head strike zones on the windshield or dashboard, or other
locations where a deploying airbag may contact the Ehubo.
• Do not block or impair the deployment of airbags and other
safety-relevant devices.
• Avoid placing the Ehubo where it may impede or limit
the driver’s movement when driving or exiting the vehicle
(including in an accident).
• Check that all safety-relevant equipment is working properly
after installation.
