Installation Using Half-Sleeve

  Install half-sleeve in the dashboard.

a.  Install adapter if necessary (optional).
b.  Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (use only 

the supplied screws). Do not force the sleeve into the 
opening or cause it to bend or bow.

WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power 
supply with proper grounding.

c. 

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 
fi rmly secured to the dashboard.

  Use the M5 x 6 screws (provided) to install the mounting  

 

brackets to each side of the radio using the holes indicated 

 in 

the 

diagram. 

DO NOT USE OTHER SCREWS.

  Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the 

 

wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.

  Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram. Once  

 

the wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative 

 

terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the ACC lead  

 

to the power supply with a switch.

 

CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.

  After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on

 to 

confi rm operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does  

 

not operate, recheck all wiring until problem is corrected.  

 

Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition  

 

switch and proceed with fi nal mounting of the chassis.
a.  Connect wiring adapter to existing wiring harness.
b.  Connect antenna lead.
c. 

Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve, making 
sure it is right-side-up. Use the supplied screws to at-
tach the radio to the half sleeve.

Using the Cosmetic Trim Ring

Two cosmetic trim rings are packaged with the head unit for 
installation fl exibility. This unit will fi t into most import dashes 
with little or no modifi cation to the dash board/cavity. Some US 
domestic vehicle dashes will accept a Double-DIN chassis, but 
there is usually a small gap between the radio and dash piece af-
ter installation is complete. In this case, use the appropriate trim 
ring to conceal any gaps that may be present.

NOTE: For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the chassis 
must be mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make sure the unit
is mounted within this limitation.
