f. Remove the two transport screws installed through the top of the radio chassis; you cannot

insert a CD into the player until these screws are removed.

NOTE: After confirming fit, place the ACD-75 aside and proceed with wiring instructions.

USING A WIRING ADAPTER

The easiest wiring method to connect the ACD-75 to the vehicle is to buy a wire harness adapter from your dealer, a car stereo installation shop or an electronics store. If you use a wiring adapter , all wires can be connected to your ACD-75 even before your old radio is removed from the car.

Connecting the Wires

Splice, crimp or solder the wires from the Audiovox ACD-75 radio connector to the wiring adapter. Match the wires according to the function vs color code relationship expressed in the following table and the wiring adapter instructions.

Attach Wires to Radio (See Figures 1 and 2.)

a. After splicing the wiring adapter to the radio connector, attach the connector to the back of

the radio.

b. Attach an antenna extender cable (not supplied) and antenna adapter, if needed.

Radio Preparation

NOTE:For GM car installations, use the GM Hardware Kit, Part Number 150-1331, which is

furnished with the radio.

1. Match quickie bolt locations on the ACD-75 radio to the factory radio bolt locations, and snap the short quickie bolts (Item #2) into the appropriate locations.

2. Attach the original factory brackets or those from the radio mounting kit (if required) to the ACD-75 radio using the supplied flange nuts (Item #4) or use the enclosed bracket (Item # 6) if the original factory brackets are not removable.

3. Some vehicle applications incorporate a rear mounting support. Match the rear quickie

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

bolt on the ACD-75 radio to the rear factory radio bolt location and snap the long quickie bolt (Item #3) into place. Thread the plastic rear bushing (Item #5) fully onto the quickie bolt.

4. Plug supplied wire harness (Item #1) into the mating socket on the rear of the ACD-75.

Installation

1. Connect the wiring harness from the radio to the vehicle side radio harness.

2. Plug the factory antenna cable into the antenna socket on the radio.

NOTE:GM vehicles 1992 and up will require an antenna adapter cable to convert the vehicle

mini connector to standard connector. Antenna adaptor cables are available at car stereo speciality shops.

3. If a compatible CD changer is to be used with this radio, connect the DIN cable from the changer to the mating socket on the radio. If an external amplifier will be used for the rear speakers, connect the low-level output RCA leads from the radio to the low-level inputs on the amplifier.

4. Reconnect the battery and perform a brief functional test of the radio to verify proper performance.

5. After verification, turn off the ignition switch and fasten the radio to the sub-dash using the mounting hardware previously removed from the factory radio.

6. Re-assemble the dash using the reverse of the disassembly procedure.

CARE AND MAINTENANCECARE AND MAINTENANCE

The radio section of your new sound system does not require any maintenance. We recommend that you keep this manual for reference on the many features found in this unit as well as how to set the clock. The compact disc player section also requires no routine maintenance, but proper understanding of its use and handling will help you obtain maximum enjoyment of its capabilities. The following points should be observed:

l When cleaning the interior of the vehicle, do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit. l The CD player is a precision instrument and will not operate properly in extreme heat or cold.

In case of such conditions, wait until the interior temperature of the vehicle reaches a normal temperature before using the player.

l If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a protective circuit will automatically stop

play of the disc. In this case, allow the unit to cool off before operating the player again.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

l Never insert anything other than a 5" (12 cm) compact disc into the player as the mechanism

can be damaged by foreign objects.

l Do not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single discs in this unit, either with or without an adaptor,

as damage to the player and/or disc may occur. Such damage will not be covered by the Warranty on this product.

l When not using the disc player, always remove the compact disc. Do not leave an ejected

disc sitting in the disc slot as this can expose it to sunlight and other causes of damage.

l Do not attempt to open the unit chassis. There are no user serviceable parts or adjustments inside. l When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp conditions, moisture may

condense on the lens of the disc player. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly until the moisture has evaporated.

l The unit is designed with a vibration dampening CD mechanism to minimize interruption of

disc play due to normal vibration in a moving vehicle. When driving on very rough roads, however, occasional sound skips may occur. This will not scratch or damage the disc and normal play will resume when the rough conditions cease.

HANDLING COMPACT DISCS

Dirt, dust, scratches, and warpage can cause skips in the playback and deterioration of sound quality. Please follow these guidelines to take care of your compact discs:

l Use only compact discs with the mark . l Fingerprints, dust, and dirt should be carefully wiped off the disc’s playing surface (shiny side)

with a soft cloth. Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc.

l Never use chemicals such as record sprays, household cleaners or thinner to clean compact

discs. Such chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.

l Discs should be kept in their storage cases when not in use. l Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or high humidity for extended periods. l Do not stick paper, tape, or labels on the disc surfaces nor write on them with any type of marker.
