This unit is designed for installation in cars, trucks, and vans with an existing radio opening. In many

cases, a special installation kit will be required to mount the radio to the dashboard. These kits are

available at electronics supply stores and car stereo specialist shops. Always check the kit application

before purchasing to make sure the kit works with your vehicle. If you need a kit but cannot find it available,

call our toll-free "HELP" line

UNIVERSAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE USING MOUNTING SLEEVE

1. Remove the detachable front panel if it is attached to the chassis by pushing the "Release" button. Slide the

mounting sleeve off of the chassis. If it is locked into position, use the removal tools (supplied) to disengage it.

Check the dashboard opening size by sliding the mounting sleeve into it. If the opening is not large enough,

carefully cut or file as necessary until the sleeve easily slides into the opening. Do not force the sleeve into the

opening or cause it to bend or bow.

3. Check that there will be sufficient space behind the dashboard for the radio chassis.

4. In most installations, it is more convenient to complete the wiring before mounting the radio in the dashboard.

Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections of the wiring harness are secure and

insulated with wire nuts or electrical tape to insure proper operation of the unit. After completing the wiring

connections, plug the 14-pin connector into the mating socket on the rear of the chassis, attach the front panel,

and turn the unit on to confirm operation (ignition switch must be "on"). If unit does not operate, re-check all wiring

until problem is corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch, un-plug the wiring

harness from the chassis, and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.

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 firmly

secured to the dashboard.

6. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so that the wiring (14-pin connector, antenna lead, RCA leads

if used, etc.) can be brought through the mounting sleeve and plugged into the respective sockets on the rear

of the chassis.

7. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve making sure it is right-side-up until it is fully seated and the spring

clips lock it into place.

8. Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to the screw stud on the rear of the chassis 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.

CAUTION: The rear of the radio must be supported with the strap to prevent damage to the dashboard from the

9. Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and test radio operation by referring to the Operating Instructions for the

unit.

REMOVING THE RADIO FROM MOUNTING SLEEVE INSTALLATIONS

1. Should it be necessary to remove the radio for servicing or other reasons, first remove the detachable front panel.

2. Remove the rear support strap by taking off the hex nut securing it to the screw stud on the rear of the chassis.

3. Use the removal tools (supplied) to disengage the side spring clips and pull the radio out of the mounting sleeve.
