4. 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. See “Wiring” on page 3. After

completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm operation

(vehicle ignition must be on). If the unit does not operate, re-check all

wiring until the problem is corrected.

carefully slide the radio into the mounting

sleeve until it is fully seated and the spring clips

lock it into place.

6. Secure the rear of the unit to the car body

using the mounting bolt and rubber cushion.

7. Test the radio using the “Operation”

Kit Installation
If your vehicle requires the use of an installation kit to mount this radio,

follow the instructions included with the installation kit to attach the radio to

the mounting plate supplied with the kit.
1. Wire and test the radio as outlined in the Mounting Sleeve Installation

instructions.

2. Install the radio/mounting plate assembly to the sub-dashboard

according to the instructions in the installation kit.

3. Replace the dashboard trim panel.

ISO Installation
This unit has threaded holes in the chassis

side panels which may be used with the

original factory mounting brackets of some

vehicles to mount the radio to the

dashboard. Please consult with your local

car stereo shop for assistance on this type

of installation.
1. Remove the existing factory radio

from the dashboard or center console

mounting. Save all hardware and

brackets as they will be used to mount the new radio.

2. Carefully unsnap the plastic frame from the front of the new radio

chassis. Remove and discard the frame.

3. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing

radio and attach them to the new radio. Do not exceed M5 x 9mm

maximum screw size. Longer screws may damage components inside

the chassis.

4. Wire the new radio as outlined in the Mounting Sleeve Installation

instructions.

5. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console

using the reverse procedure of step 1.

Fuses
When replacing a fuse, make sure the new fuse is the correct type and

amperage. Using an incorrect fuse could damage the radio.
Reconnect Battery
When wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative terminal.
Removing the Radio
To remove the radio after installation, remove

the trim ring by lifting in the center and pulling

it off from either side. Insert the removal keys

straight back until they lock, then pull the

radio out. If the removal keys are inserted at

an angle, they will not lock properly and will

not release the unit.
