Optional Equipment

•  Rear Camera

Disconnecting the Battery

•   To prevent a short circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to 

installation.

NOTE: If the VM9726BT is to be installed in a car equipped with an on-board drive or navigation computer, do not 

disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these conditions, use 

extra caution during installation to avoid causing a short circuit.

Replacing the Fuse

•  When replacing the fuse, use a new 15A replacement fuse. Using a fuse with an improper rating could damage the 

unit and cause a fire.

ISO-DIN Installation

This unit is designed to fit into a 2.0 DIN dashboard opening, found in many imported cars. The unit has threaded 

holes in the chassis side panels which may be used with the original factory mounting brackets of some Toyota, 

Nissan, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Hyundai and Honda vehicles to mount the radio to the dashboard. Please consult with your 

local car stereo specialty 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.   Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from 

the existing radio and attach them to the new radio.

 

 CAUTION!  Do not exceed M5 X 6MM screw size. Longer screws 

may damage components inside the chassis.

3.   Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the 

wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve. Follow 

the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections 

are secure and insulated with wire nuts or electrical 

tape. After completing the wiring connections, plug the 

ISO connectors into the mating sockets on the rear of the 

chassis. Turn the unit on to confirm operation (vehicle ignition  

switch must be “on”). If the unit does not operate,  

re-check all wiring until the problem is corrected.

4.   Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center 

console using the reverse procedure in step 1.

 

CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.

NOTE: It is the end-users responsibility to install and operate this unit in a manner in accordance with local, state and 

federal laws. The PARKING BRAKE wire MUST BE CONNECTED as directed in the manual.

CAUTION! Do not block the cooling fan exit. If blocked, the unit may overheat and become damaged.
