Installation of the system
Caution!
− Before making connections, turn the car ignition off to avoid short-circuits.
− Connect the power supply lead to the unit and speakers before connecting
it to the auxiliary power connector.
− Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected leads with electrical tape for safety.
− When connecting this unit in combination with other stereo components,
the connected car circuit’s rating must be higher than the sum of each
component’s fuse.
− When no car circuits are rated high enough, connect the unit directly to the
battery, add a fuse on battery.
Electrical connections
− Check if the permanent cable (Batt+) is supplied with 12 V even when the
ignition key is not in: otherwise personal settings won’t be stored.
− Check if the ACC cable is supplied with 12 V only when the ignition key is
turned on. Connecting the ACC cable to permanent 12 V may cause battery
drain.
− Check if your vehicle is equipped with
ISO connectors (D)
; if not it is stron-
gly recommended to get the ISO connector adaptor that fits your vehicle.
− The device is designed with the pin A7 connected to the ACC cable and the
pin A4 connected to the Batt+ cable. If the connector from the vehicle is
different, you must adapt the wiring.
− Check if the vehicle antenna cable has an
ISO type connector (C)
. If this
is not the case you must get an adaptor cable. It is very important that the
antenna connection is done with the right connector or the quality of FM
reception may be degraded.
Note:
If the vehicle has an antenna with a power supply lead it must be connected to
the A5 pin; if not this pin is not connected.
