GENERAL VEHICLE INSTALLATION APPROACH
7
1. Decide upon the system confi guration and options that will be installed.
2. Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements and hookups.
3. Decide upon the mounting locations of all components and the method of mounting.
4. Prep the vehicle. Remove any interior trim necessary to gain access to vehicle's wiring, as well as all areas where interconnecting wire harnesses will be
located. If any access holes need to be cut into the vehicle, do this now.
5. Route the wiring harnesses in the vehicle as necessary. Refer to the wiring diagrams in this manual, as well as the wiring instructions for the individual
components and accessory options being installed. Ensure that the wiring is protected from sharp edges. Ensure that all wiring is not pinched when all
components and interio trim are fully installed. Leave enough slack in the wiring at each component to allow working room.
6. Remove all A/V system components from their packaging and place them loosely in the vehicle at their respective locations.
7. Connect all components together and verify the proper operation of all system functions.
Note: This is best done BEFORE components have been permanently mounted.
8. After verifying proper operation of the system, proceed to mount each component.
9. When all components are mounted, recheck the function of the entire system. Ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected improperly during
fi nal installation.
