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 within 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.

MP3/WMA OPERATION
Instructions for TFT control and Insert/Eject are the same for DVD and MP3 operation. Please see the DVD/Disc Video Operation section for information about these topics.
MP3/WMA Media and File Requirements
This player allows you to play back MP3 and WMA files recorded onto CD-R/RWs, DVD+R/RWs, and DVD-R/RWs. For CD-RW discs, please make sure it is formatted using the full method and not the quick method to prevent illegal disc operation.
Up to 1500 songs/files can be burned onto a disc for a MEGA DVD music mix. Do not exceed this number of songs/files or disc readability problems may occur.
MP3 Format Compatibility
The file naming formats listed below are compatible with this unit:
ISO 9660 – file name: 12 characters, file extension: 3 characters
ISO 9660 – file name: 31 characters, file extension: 3 characters
Joliet – 64 characters
If the file or folder name does not conform to ISO 9660 file system standards, it may not be displayed or played back correctly. Use the following settings when compressing audio data for your MP3 disc:
Transfer Bit Rate: 128kbps
Sampling Frequency: 48kHz
When recording MP3 up to the maximum disc capacity, disable additional writing. For recording on an empty disc up to maximum disc capacity, use the "Disc at once" setting.
MP3 Playing Order
When selected for play, files and folders (Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select) are accessed in the order they were written by the CD writer. As a result, the order in which they are expected to be played may not match the order in which they are actually played. You may be able to set the order in which MP3/WMA files are to be played by writing them onto a medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning with play sequence numbers such as "01" to "99".
For example, a medium with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select, as shown below.
The VM9512 player will only recognize three folder levels and does not display folders containing only other folders. In the example above, the unit will display folders 3, 4, 6, and 8, but not 2 and 7 since they do not contain any tracks directly. Folder 5 is not recognized at all since it is at the fourth level.
Loading an SD Card
Insert the SD card into the SD slot (21) on the front of the radio. The unit will read the audio media files on the card automatically.

BLUETOOTH OPERATION
About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless radio connectivity technology that is developed as a cable replacement for mobile phones, handheld PCs and other devices. Bluetooth operates in 2.4 GHz frequency range and transmits voice and data at speeds up to 1 megabit per second. Bluetooth was launched by a special interest group (SIG) comprised of Ericsson Inc., Intel Corp., Nokia Corp., Toshiba and IBM in 1998, and it is currently developed by nearly 2,000 companies worldwide. The Bluetooth word mark and logos are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks by Audiovox Corporation is under license. Other trademarks and trade names are those of their respective owners.
NOTE: The line-of-sight distance between this unit and your cellular phone must be 8 meters or less for sending and receiving voice and data via Bluetooth wireless technology. However, the transmission distance may become shorter than the estimated distance, depending on the environment in use.
Before attempting to use the Bluetooth functions on the VM9512, please make sure your mobile phone supports Bluetooth functions (Headset or Handsfree profiles or both). Adhere to the following guidelines for successful operation.
Before using Bluetooth functions, you must pair your mobile phone to the VM9512 head unit (see “Pairing the Bluetooth System with Your Mobile Phone and Head Unit”). To ensure the best reception for pairing and reconnection, please make sure the phone battery is fully charged before you begin.
Try to perform pairing within a few minutes of the phone being turned on.
Once the unit has been paired with the phone, the unit’s model number, “VM9512”, will be displayed on the mobile phone.
To achieve the best performance, always keep the mobile phone within 3 meters of the head unit.
Always keep a clear path between the mobile phone and the head unit. Never place a metal object or any other obstacle between the mobile phone and the head unit.
Some mobile phones (like Sony Ericsson) may have a "Power Saving Mode" option. PLEASE DO NOT use the power saving mode with the VM9512.
Before accepting or making a call, make sure your mobile phone's “Bluetooth function” is turned on.
To ensure the best conversation quality/performance, stay within one meter of the head unit when talking.
To “disconnect” the mobile phone from the head unit, turn the Bluetooth connectivity off on the mobile phone.
Phone Book direct searching through the head unit
is only available if the mobile phone supports Phone Book Download. If the feature is not supported, the
head unit will display “Phone book not provided by this phone” when an attempt is made to download a phone book.

Hands Free Profile (HFP)
T o use a phone wirelessly with this unit, it is necessary to first establish a connection using Bluetooth wireless technology. Connection is normally established using HFP (Hands Free Profile), which gives you full control of functions available on the telephone source. However, depending on your phone, the connection may be made using HSP (Head Set Profile), making some functions unavailable. This is a limitation of your phone, not the VM9512.
Since there are a number of Bluetooth mobile phone implementations available on the market, operations with your Bluetooth mobile phone using this unit vary greatly.
Please refer to the instruction manual that came with your Bluetooth mobile phone along with this manual while operating your phone with this unit.

Care and Maintenance
1. Use only a clean silicone cloth and neutral detergent to clean the front panel or monitor. A rough cloth and non­neutral detergent (such as alcohol) may result in scratching or discoloration.
2. Do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
3. If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a protective circuit automatically stops play of the disc. If this occurs, allow the unit to cool before operating the player again.
4. Never insert anything other than a 5” (12 cm) disc into the player as the mechanism can be damaged by foreign objects.
5. Do not attempt to use a 3” (8 cm) CD-Single disc in this unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the player and/or disc may occur. Such damage is not covered by the Warranty on this product.
6. The CD player may not operate properly in extreme hot or cold. If such conditions occur, allow the interior of the vehicle to reach a normal temperature before using player.
7. When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp conditions, condensation may appear on the LCD panel. Should this occur, the screen will not operate properly until the moisture has evaporated.
8. We suggest you use a cleaning disc in this unit more frequently than in the unit in your home due to the environmental conditions of the vehicle.
