INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This unit is designed for installation in cars, trucks, and vans with an existing radio opening. In many cases, a special installation
kit will be required to mount the radio to the dashboard. These kits are available at electronics supply stores and car stereo
specialist shops. Always check the kit application before purchasing to make sure the kit works with your vehicle. If you need a
kit but cannot find it available, call our toll-free "HELP" line.
UNIVERSAL INSTALLATION
1. Remove the detachable front panel if it is attached to the chassis by pushing the "Release" button. Slide the mounting sleeve
off of the chassis. If it is locked into position, use the removal tools (supplied) to disengage it.
2. Check the dashboard opening size by sliding the mounting sleeve into it. If the opening is not large enough, carefully cut or
file as necessary until the sleeve easily slides into the opening. Do not force the sleeve into the opening or cause it to bend
or bow. Check that there will be sufficient space behind the dashboard for the radio chassis.
3. 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.
4. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so that the wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve. Follow the
wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections of the wiring harness are secure and insulated with wire nuts or
electrical tape to insure proper operation of the unit. After completing the wiring connections, attach the front panel and turn
the unit on to confirm operation (ignition switch must be "on"). If unit does not operate, re-check all wiring until problem is
corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.
5. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve making sure it is right-side-up until it is fully seated and the spring clips lock
it into place.
6. Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to the screw stud on the rear of the chassis using the hex nut provided.
Fasten the other end of the perforated strap to a secure part of the dashboard either above or below the radio using the screw
and hex nut provided. Bend the strap to position it as necessary.
CAUTION: The rear of the radio must be supported with the strap to prevent damage to the dashboard from the weight of the
radio or improper operation due to vibration.
7. Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and test radio operation by referring to the Operating Instructions for the unit.
