Congratulations on your new purchase of
a Magnadyne automotive stereo / cassette
system. The unit you chose incorporates a
microcomputer managed electronic
AM/FM stereo tuning system and FM
Optimizer along with rugged auto stop or
auto reverse cassette mechanism. The two
as a combination will provide the user
with the finest crystal clear AM and FM
stereo radio broadcast reproduction and
flawless reproduction of your personal
cassette tape library.
To insure a completely successful, trouble
free installation and trouble free long
term performance from your new Magna-
dyne radio, please take a moment to read
this manual completely to make yourself
aware of all basic installation, radio opera-
tion and memory setting procedures.
Also at this time, it would be a good idea
to write down the serial number of the
unit and the warranty card number in the
space provided. In the unlikely event that
the radio will need warranty service, you
will need these numbers to obtain the ser-
vice.

Introduction
Mechanical Installation
Most all automobiles, trucks and vans pro-
vide a mounting location somewhere in
the fascia of the dashboard or center con-
sole to install a radio/cassette system. 90%
of all vehicles produced from 1984 to pre-
sent will require some type of custom
installation bracketry or “kit” to properly
install your new Magnadyne radio. In
addition, many new or late model vehicles
have also been pre-wired (stereo prep
package) for the installation of a 2 or 4
speaker system. With this in mind, it is
suggested that before attempting the
installation of your new Magnadyne stereo
system, that you contact your local instal-
lation center and purchase the proper
installation kit and adapter harness if it is
available to insure the proper installation
of your new stereo cassette unit. Most
older vehicles will not require an installa-
tion kit but will require some “cut to fit”
procedures to install your mew Magna-
dyne stereo/ cassette unit.
Space Requirements:
To mount your new Magnadyne unit, you
will need a rectangle hole in the mount-
ing location 182mm (width) x 53mm
(height), (7
1
⁄
8
” x 2
1
⁄
8
”) and a full 6” of
unobstructed space behind the mounting
location.
