INSTALLATION

ISO DIN Installation

This unit is designed to fit into a 2.0 DIN dashboard opening,
found in many imported cars. The unit has threaded holes in
the chassis side panels which may be used with the original
factory mounting brackets of some Toyota, Nissan,
Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Hyundai and Honda vehicles to mount the
radio to the dashboard. Please consult with your local car
stereo specialty shop for assistance on this type of
installation.

Remove the existing factory radio from the dashboard or
center console mounting. Save all hardware and brack-
ets as they will be used to mount the new radio.

Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware
from the existing radio and attach them to the new radio.

CAUTION: Do not exceed M5 X 6MM screw size. Longer
screws may touch and damage components inside the
chassis.

Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all
connections are secure and insulated with wire nuts or
electrical tape. After completing the wiring connections,
plug the ISO connectors into the mating sockets on the
rear of the chassis. Turn the unit on to confirm operation
(vehicle ignition switch must be “on”). If the unit does not
operate, re-check all wiring until the problem is
corrected.

Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or
center console using the reverse procedure in step 1.

CAUTION: For proper operation of the CD player, the
chassis must be mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make
sure the unit is mounted within this limitation.

NOTE: It is the end-users responsibility to install and
operate this unit in a manner in accordance with local,
state and federal laws. The PARKING BRAKE wire MUST
BE CONNECTED as directed in the manual.

CAUTION: Do not block the cooling fan exit. If blocked,
the unit may overheat and become damaged.

Installation Using Half-Sleeve

Press the metal levers on both sides to remove the half-
sleeve from the radio.

Install the half-sleeve.

a. Install adapter if necessary (optional).
b. Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (use only

the supplied screws). Do not force the sleeve into the
opening or cause it to bend or bow.

c. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top, bottom

and sides of the mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully
inserted into the dashboard opening, bend as many of
the tabs outward as necessary so that the sleeve is
firmly secured to the dashboard.

Use the M5 x 6 screws (provided) to install the mounting
brackets to each side of the radio using the holes
indicated below.

Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
