INSTALLATION

Pre-installation

1. Press the metal levers on both sides to remove the halfsleeve from the radio.

2. Remove the transport screws.

3. Install the half-sleeve.

a. Install adapter if necessary (optional). b. Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (only use the supplied screws).

Do not force the sleeve into the opening or cause it to bend or bow.

c. Locate the series of bend tabs along the top, bottom and sides of the mounting slee-

ve. 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.

d. Install support strap to make the unit more stable.

SUBJECT TO TECHNICAL CHANGE

CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.

4. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be brought

through the mounting sleeve.

Wiring

Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram on page 9. 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 radio uses one 10 amp mini-ATM 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 problem is corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.

1. Connect wiring adapter to existing wiring harness.

2. Connect antenna lead.

3. Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve making sure it is right-side-up until it is fully seated and the spring clips lock it into place.

NOTE:

For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the chassis must be mounted wit-

hin 20° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted within this limitation.

4. 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 weight of the radio or improper operation due to vibration.

5. Replace any items you removed from the dashboard.

Final ISO-DIN Installation

1. Remove trim ring.

2. Mount factory brackets on new radio using existing screws from old radio.

3. Slide radio chassis into dash opening and secure.

4. Reinstall dash panel.

RDS INFORMATION

Within the RDS Setup Menu (OSD) you will find the following setup possibilities.

OVERVIEW OF THE RDS FUNCTION A) Notes:

- RDS is only available for FM receiption

- The PS function allows station names to be displayed in clear letters.

SUBJECT TO TECHNICAL CHANGE

- Network Tracking receiption uses the PI and AF codes. The PI code identifies the country, area and broadcast system. AF lists up which reception frequencies at the area are broadcasting the same program and automatically changes to the best reception quality offering frequency without the need to interrupt the program by a seek function.

- Traffic programmes and announcements can be automatically received using the TA features.

- The station name is displayed automatically when a RDS station is received.

B) AF (Alternative Frequencies / REG (Regional): RDS AF Function

There are the following possible modes available:

- AF off: The network tracking is deactivated. Only station name will be displayed.

- AF on: Network tracking is activated. AF function changes between stations belonging to the broadcast network being received. (Can be adjusted within the RDS Setup menu)

Note: When this unit is set to this mode (REG OFF), a station broadcasting a different regional program in the same network may be received at certain times. This can happen only in case of listening to regionalized programs; no malfunction!

- AF on / REG ON: Network tracking is activated. Regional mode is engaged (AF function changes between stations broadcasting the same program at all times). Regional mode shall be selected only in case of driving in certain local areas. (Can be adjusted within the RDS Setup menu)

- RDS may not operate correctly in areas where no alternative station can be received.

- In reception borderland of a program chain normally no alternative stations can be found. In this case also a high advanced RDS function cannot help anymore, another program- of the driving area- must be selected.

- Especially in regional mode such reception borderland can be often reached. Because of possible reduced reception quality, the regional function shall be used only for driving short distances.

- If the RDS station does not suport AF data list or if the tuner cannot read AF data from receiption, no network tracking is possible. Switching to alternative frequencies does not work. After turning the RDS feature on, AF can be set to become “ON” or “OFF” using the OSD menue.

- AF “OFF”: When the AF switching mode is set to OFF and RDS is set to “ON”, a maximum number of 6 RDS and non-RDS channels will be stored together.

- AF “ON”: When the AF switching mode is set to ON the RDS station information will only be displayed.

- Illuminated AF Segment: When the AF switching mode is “ON”, the radio continually checks the AF signal strength. The interval of checking time of each AF depends on the signal strength of current station which can be anywhere from a few seconds for strong station to a few minutes for weak station. Every time a new AF is stronger than a current station, the AF will switch over to the stronger station quickly.

- REG mode “ON”: When the Region mode is set to ON the AF switching is implemented to the station that has all PI codes that are same as the current station. “REG ON” should be shown on screen. (Can be adjusted within the RDS Setup menu)

- REG mode “OFF”: When the regional mode is “OFF” the radio may switch from a national program station to a local variant of that program, or from a local station in an area to a local station in another area. This may cause customers to listen to a wrong program. To avoid this feature set the Region mode to “ON”, and then the radio will only switch to an AF that broadcasts Region mode to the same program. To switch the REG function “ON”/”OFF” please push the right joystick for 2 seconds up (see page 11 button 18).

TA (Traffic Announcement) / TP (Traffic Program)

TP mode will automatically switch between “ON” and “OFF” depending upon the broadcast. In order to access the TA mode. To switch the TA function “ON”/”OFF” please push the right joystick for 2 seconds down (see page 11 button 19). When the TA mode is “ON” and a traffic announcement is received the following may occur:

1. The unit will switch from the different sources temporarily to radio mode.

2. When a TP station is received, the OSD will display “TA ON”.

TA Volume (traffic announcement volume increasement)

In the RDS Setup you can adjust between 0-7.
