a.
Insert the removal keys straight back until they lock. If
removal keys are inserted at an angle, they will not lock
properly to release the unit.
b.
Slide the mounting sleeve off the chassis.
Install the mounting sleeve in the dashboard.

a.
Check the dashboard opening size by sliding the
mounting sleeve into it. If the opening is not large
enough, carefully cut or fi le 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.
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 to fi rmly secure the
sleeve to the dashboard.
Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
5
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all
6
connections are secure and insulated with crimp connectors
or electrical tape to ensure proper operation.
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power supply
with proper grounding.
After completing the wiring connections, attach the front
7
panel and turn the unit on to confi rm operation (vehicle igni-
tion switch must be on). If the unit does not operate, re-
check all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper
operation is achieved, turn the ignition switch off and pro-
ceed with fi nal mounting of the chassis.
Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve, making sure
8
it is right-side-up until it is fully seated and the spring clips
lock it into place.
Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to
9
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, as necessary, to position it.
CAUTION: The rear of the radio must be supported with the strap to prevent damage to the dashboard
from the weight of the radio or improper operation due to vibration.
Re-attach the decorative trim ring.

Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and test radio operation by referring to the operating instructions
11

Make sure the unit is mounted within this limitation.
