Disconnecting the Battery
To prevent a short circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to in-
stallation.
NOTE: If the VM9214BT is to be installed in a car equipped with an on-board drive or navigation computer, do
not disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these
conditions, use extra caution during installation to avoid causing a short circuit.
Pre-installation
Remove the four screws that attach the mounting sleeve to the
radio and remove the sleeve.
Install the mounting sleeve.
a. Install mounting sleeve into the dashboard or optional
adapter. Do not force the sleeve into the opening or cause
it to bend or bow.
b. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top, bottom and
sides of the mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully insert-
ed into the dashboard opening, bend as many of the tabs
outward as necessary so that the sleeve is fi rmly secured
to the dashboard.
c. Install support strap to make the unit more stable.
Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring
can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.

Wiring
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power supply with proper grounding.
Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram on page 4. Once the wiring is complete, reconnect the bat-
tery negative terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the ACC lead to the power supply with a switch.
NOTE: When replacing a fuse, be sure to use correct type and amperage to avoid damaging the radio. The
VM9214BT uses one 15 amp fuse, located in the black fi lter box in-line with the main wire harness.
Final Installation
After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confi rm operation (ignition switch must be on). If
unit does not operate, recheck all wiring until problem is corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn off
the ignition switch and proceed with fi nal mounting of the chassis.

sure it is right-side-up, and secure with the original 4 screws.

the screw stud, which is screwed into the threaded insert on
the back of the unit, 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.
Replace any items you removed from the dashboard.

Wiring Diagram
IMPORTANT: Incorrect wiring connections can damage the unit. Follow the wiring instructions carefully, or
have the installation handled by an experienced technician.
For basic iPod connectivity, you can use the white 30-pin to USB iPod cable that came with your Apple device .
For iPod video or photo playback, you must purchase the jLink-USB cable. Connect the iPod cable to the rear
chassis iPod inputs (USB / 3.5mm connectors) and route the iPod cable to an accessible part of the dash area
for easy connectivity. For occasional iPod use, keep an iPod cable in your glove box and use it to connect the
iPod to the front USB connector.
