screw and rubber washer from the top of
the stereo.
Note: Save the screw and washer in
case you need to mail or ship the stereo.
Secure them to the back of the stereo
with a piece of tape.
MAKING THE
CONNECTIONS
The supplied harness with the 14-pin
connector includes all the lead wires you
need to connect the stereo to ground,
power, some optional components, and
speakers.
Important: Do not cut these wires. If
you cut any wire, you cannot obtain a re-
fund or exchange on this product. How-
ever, your local RadioShack store will
provide warranty service if you cut a
wire and find that the product is defec-
tive.
You might need additional wire, depend-
ing on your autosound system, to com-
plete the connections. Your local
RadioShack store carries a full line of
wire and wire management accessories.
Cautions:
• For added safety and to protect your
stereo, disconnect the cable from
your vehicle battery’s negative (–)
terminal before you begin.
• Be sure your speakers can handle
92 watts of power (23 watts per
channel). Each speaker must have
an impedance of at least 4 ohms.

• You must connect the

wires first, then make all
other connections as described in
the following sections before you
plug the harness with the 14-pin
connector into the stereo. If you do
not make connections in the order
shown, damage to the stereo is pos-
sible if any wire connections are
made incorrectly.
• You must connect a separate wire to
each speaker terminal as described
in the following procedure. Do not
use a common wire or chassis
ground for any speaker connection.
