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 VM9215BT 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.
Pre-installation
1. Remove the four screws that attach the mounting sleeve to the
radio and remove the sleeve.
2. Install the mounting sleeve:
a. Install mounting sleeve into the dashboard or optional adapter.
Do not force the sleeve into the opening or cause it to bend
or bow.
b. 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.
c. Install the support strap to make the unit more stable.
3. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can
be brought through the mounting sleeve.
CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.
