Installation
Dashboard installation
The dimensions of this unit correspond to the DIN
standard. If the dashboard of the car provides a
DIN-sized mounting slot, installation can be accom-
plished very easily, using the supplied mounting
sleeve. If the mounting cutout is smaller than the
standard DIN size, it must be enlarged to the fol-
lowing dimensions: Height 53 mm (2-3/32") x Width
182 mm (7-11/64")
Installation should be performed by an autho-
rized professional installer.
Please consult your dealer regarding details.

Precaution concerning side fastening holes
When installing the unit using the side or rear
fastening holes, make sure that the fastening
screws are not longer than M5x8 (mm). Never
use longer screws, because this can cause in-
ternal damage to the unit!
Installation angle
Keep the installation angle of the unit within the
following range: horizontal (0 degrees) to slight
upwards inclination (+30 degrees). If the unit is
mounted at a different angle, sound quality may
be impaired or damage may occur.
1. Insert the supplied mounting sleeve into the
mounting slot.
2. Bend the flanges of the mounting sleeve with a
screwdriver to fasten it. (Fig. A)
3. Fasten the sleeve lock plates to both sides of
the unit. If the mounting has sufficient depth,
use the long sleeve lock plates, otherwise use
the short sleeve lock plates.
4. Make sure that the mounting sleeve is securely
fixed, then install the main unit.
5. Use the supplied M5 fastening screw and metal
stay to fasten the rear section of the main unit
to the car. If a suitable support is provided inside
the mounting slot, the rubber bushing can be
used instead of the metal stay. (Fig. B)
6. After the unit is securely fixed, attach the
supplied trim panel rim. (Fig. C)
7. To remove the unit, remove the trim panel rim
and the metal stay (if it was used for rear
support of the unit). Then insert the two
screwdrivers(-) into the grooves on the left and
right of the unit and pull it out (Fig. D), taking
care not to damage the wiring on the rear.
