Setup and Installation
- Plan Placement: Determine the desired locations for the four micro LEDs within your vehicle's interior. Common areas include under the dashboard, footwells, or along console edges. Ensure the wiring can reach the 12-volt power outlet without obstruction.
- Clean Surface: Thoroughly clean the chosen installation surfaces with an alcohol wipe to remove any dust, dirt, or grease. Allow the surface to dry completely. This ensures optimal adhesion of the foam tape.
- Attach LEDs: Peel the backing from the self-adhesive 3M™ foam tape on each micro LED. Carefully press each LED firmly onto the cleaned surface for at least 30 seconds to secure it.
- Route Wiring: Neatly route the wiring from each LED to the central 12-volt power plug. Use cable ties or clips (not included) to secure the wires and prevent them from interfering with vehicle operation or being damaged.
- Connect Power: Insert the 12-volt power plug into your vehicle's cigarette lighter or auxiliary power outlet.
Operating Instructions
- Power On: Once the 12-volt power plug is inserted into the vehicle's outlet, locate the ON/OFF switch on the power plug. Slide the switch to the "ON" position. The micro LEDs will illuminate with a blue light.
- Power Off: To turn off the LEDs, slide the switch on the 12-volt power plug to the "OFF" position.
