DIN Front Mount (Method A)
1. Remove the detachable front panel, if it is
attached to the chassis, by pushing the
REL button.
2. Slide the mounting sleeve off of the
chassis if it has not already been removed.
If it is locked into position, use the removal
keys (supplied) to disengage it. The
removal keys are depicted in “Removing
the Unit” on page 3.
3. 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. Check that there will be sufficient space
behind the dashboard for the radio chassis.
4. 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 firmly secure the sleeve to the dashboard.
5. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be brought through the
mounting sleeve.
6. Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections are secure and
insulated with crimp connectors or electrical tape to ensure proper operation.
