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.

Connecting the Satellite Radio Receiver (optional)

Before you can listen to XM® satellite radio, you must install the XM® Direct Receiver and antenna (purchased separately). The XM

equipment required to process the satellite signals from the external antenna. It is typically installed in the dash, under the seat, or in the trunk or rear of the vehicle. Do not mount the

Direct Receiver near a heater vent or where it can be exposed to extreme temperatures. In addition, when running the wire for the external antenna do not kink or pinch the antenna cable. A sharp 90 degree bend or slight "nick" to the outer cable sheath will cause signal degradation. The wiring diagram on page 3 will help you identify the proper connections.

Direct Receiver is the central data receiving

INSTALLATION

This unit is designed for installation in cars, trucks and vans with an existing radio opening. In many cases, a special installation kit will be required to mount the radio into the dashboard. These kits are available at electronics supply stores and car stereo specialty shops. Always check the kit application before purchasing to make sure the kit works with your vehicle. If you have trouble locating a kit or need installation assistance, contact Technical Support at 1-800323-4815 from 8:30am to 7:00pm EST Monday through Friday and from 9:00am to 5:00pm EST on Saturday.

Universal Installation Using Mounting Sleeve

1. Remove the detachable front panel, if it is attached to the chassis, by pushing the “Release” 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 on page 5.

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.

7. After completing the wiring connections, attach the front panel and turn the unit on to confirm operation (vehicle ignition switch must be on). If the unit does not operate, recheck all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn the ignition switch off and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.

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

9. 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, as necessary, to position it. 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.

10. Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and test radio operation by referring to the operating instructions for the unit.

Kit Installation

If your vehicle requires the use of an installation kit to mount this radio, follow the instructions included with the installation kit to attach the radio to the mounting plate supplied with the kit.

1. Wire and test the radio as outlined in the Universal Installation instructions.

2. Install the radio/mounting plate assembly to the sub-dashboard according to the instructions in the installation kit.

3. Attach the support strap to the radio and dashboard as described in the Universal Installation instructions.

4. Replace the dashboard trim panel.

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.

Removing the Radio

T o remove the radio after installation, remove the trim ring by lifting in the center and pulling it off from either side. Insert the removal keys straight back until they lock, and then pull the radio out. If removal keys are inserted at an angle, they will not lock properly to release the unit.
