ALPENA 78540 USB Thin Beam Phone Control

STEP 1
CHOOSE LIGHTING STRIP MOUNTING LOCATION
Determine the installation location for the LED strip; ideal spots include dashboard gaps,
center console, or footwell areas. Long, sweeping locations and straight sections work
best. Avoid sharply folding the strip to prevent damage.
NOTE: Do not bend the LED strips in a radius
of less than 5/8″ (15mm) or circuit traces will
be damaged and void warranty.
STEP 2
CUTTING TO SIZE (IF REQUIRED)
Cut the strip to your desired size if needed with
scissors or side cutters as shown. Caution
once the strip is cut the extra section cannot
be added, measure twice before cutting.
STEP 3
MOUNTING THE STRIP INTO PANEL GAPS
The LED strip can be installed into panel gaps without
using the peel-and-stick tape provided. Use the supplied
tool to help with installation. Note that the strip cannot be
folded on itself or sharply bent. For other locations, you will
need to use the peel-and-stick adhesive. See Step 4 for
more information.

STEP 4
MOUNTING THE STRIP USING
PEEL-AND-STICK ADHESIVE
Grab the roll of peel-and-stick
adhesive from the box and apply
the tape to the side of the strip the
you want to mount.
STEP 5
ROUTING WIRES & POWERING UP
Run the wires so that vehicle operation
is not interfered with directly to your USB
5V or USB-C outlet. If you need USB-C
use the supplied adapter to convert the
plug to use the LED strip.

STEP 6
