If the opening is too small, 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 for sufficient space behind
the dashboard for the radio chassis.
3. 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.
CAUTION: For proper operation of the CD player, the chassis must be
mounted within 20° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted within
this limitation.
4. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be
brought through the mounting sleeve. Follow the wiring diagram
carefully and make certain all connections are secure and insulated
with wire nuts or electrical tape. See “Wiring” on page 5. After
completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm operation
(vehicle ignition must be on). If the unit does not operate, re-check all
wiring until the problem is corrected.
5. Make sure the radio is right-side up, then
carefully slide the radio into the mounting
SPRING CLIP
sleeve until it is fully seated and the spring clips
lock it into place.
6. Secure the rear of the unit to the car body
using the mounting bolt and rubber cushion.
7. Test the radio using the Operating Instructions
that follow.

ISO Installation
This unit has threaded holes in the chassis
side panels which may be used with the
original factory mounting brackets of some
vehicles to mount the radio to the
dashboard. Please consult with your local
car stereo shop for assistance on this type
of installation.
1. Remove the existing factory radio
from the dashboard or center console
mounting. Save all hardware and
brackets as they will be used to mount the new radio.
2. Carefully unsnap the plastic frame from the front of the new radio
chassis. Remove and discard the frame.
3. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing
radio and attach them to the new radio. Do not exceed M5 x 9 MM
maximum screw size. Longer screws may damage components inside
the chassis.
4. Wire the new radio to the vehicle as outlined in the Universal Installation
instructions.
5. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console
using the reverse procedure of step 1.
Fuses
When replacing a fuse, make sure the new fuse is the correct type and
amperage. Using an incorrect fuse could damage the radio.
Technical Assistance
If you require assistance, contact Technical Support at 1-800-323-4815
from 8:30am to 7:00pm EST Monday through Friday and from 9:00am to
5:00pm EST on Saturday.

front panel to the chassis.
Detaching the Front Panel
To detach the front panel, first press the front panel release button to

of the panel are free of dust and dirt, as debris could cause intermittent
operation or other malfunctions. Position the right side of the panel in place
so that it is correctly engaged, then lightly press the left side of the panel
until the mechanism locks it into place.
