INSTALLATION
Mounting the Bracket
Two options are provided for mounting the bracket (self-tapping screws or machine screws with
nuts) to ensure a mounting option ideal for your mounting location. Avoid obstructing airflow to
the rear cooling fins on the radio.
Notes: Mounting holes should be drilled to 7/32”. Before drilling the mounting holes,
make sure the area behind the panel where the holes are desired is clear of wires and
fuels, vacuum and or brake lines.
Attaching the Radio
Once the bracket is securely mounted, use the four included M4 machine screws to fasten the
bracket to the back of the radio. Alternatively, the radio can be mounted directly to the instrument
panel if access to the rear of the instrument panel is available.
CAUTION! Do not over tighten the 4 mounting screws. Hand tighten only.
Mounting the Headphone Bracket
Three options are provided for mounting the bracket (self-tapping screws, machine screws with
nuts or double-sided tape) to ensure a mounting option ideal for your mounting location.
Alternately, the headphone can be mounted directly to the instrument panel if access to the rear
of the instrument panel is available.
NOTE: Mounting holes should be drilled to 7/32”. Before drilling the mounting holes,
make sure the area behind the panel where the holes are to be drilled is clear of wires and
fuel, vacuum and or brake lines.
