Wiring
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power supply with proper grounding.
Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram on page 4. 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.
NOTE: When replacing a fuse, be sure to use correct type and amperage to avoid damaging the radio. The VM9216BT
uses one 15 amp fuse, located in the black filter box in-line with the main wire harness.
Final Installation
After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm
operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does not operate,
recheck all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper
operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch and proceed with
final mounting of the chassis.
1. Connect the wiring adapter to the existing wiring harness.
2. Connect the antenna lead.
3. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve, making sure it
is right-side-up, and secure with the original four screws.
4. Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to the
screw stud, which is screwed into the threaded insert on the back
of the unit, using the hex nut provided. Fasten the other end of
the perforated strap to a secure part of the dashboard either
above or below the radio using the screw and hex nut provided.
Bend the strap to position it as necessary.
5. Replace any items you removed from the dashboard.
