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.

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, first
remove the face plate. Next, remove the trim
ring by firmly grasping one side and pulling.
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.
