Steering Wheel Control (SWC) Ready

The recommended SWC Interface is the PAC SWI-RC steering wheel control adapter.

SWI-RC installation hints:

1. Set "Radio Select Switch". Set the SWI-RC to position 7 - "Pioneer/Sony/Other".

2. Programming - Use the "Other" radio function mapping order for Jensen branded head units.

3. When programming the SWI-RC, if a function is not supported (or not desired), then the function MUST be skipped as per

the PAC SWI-RC instructions.

4. The SWC functions MUST also be programmed in the correct order per the PAC SWI-RC radio function mapping order instructions.

Disconnect the Battery

To prevent a short circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to installation.

•

NOTE: If the head unit 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.

Replacing the Fuse

•

When replacing the vehicles radio fuse always use the proper rated replacement fuse. Using a fuse with an improper rating could damage the unit and cause a fire.

ISO-DIN Installation

The head unit is designed to fit into a 2.0 DIN dashboard opening. The unit has threaded holes in the chassis side panels which may be used with the original factory mounting brackets of some Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Hyundai and Honda vehicles to mount the radio to the dashboard. Please consult with your local car stereo specialty 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. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing radio and attach them to the new radio.

CAUTION! Do not exceed M5 X 6MM screw size. Longer screws may damage components inside the chassis.

3. 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. After completing the wiring connections, plug the connector into the mating socket on the rear of the chassis. Turn the unit ON to confirm operation (vehicle ignition switch must be “ON”). If the unit does not operate, re-check all wiring until the problem is corrected.

4. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console using the reverse procedure in step 1 above.

CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.

NOTE: It is the end-users responsibility to install and operate this unit in a manner in accordance with local, state and federal laws. The PARKING BRAKE wire MUST BE CONNECTED as directed in the manual.

Using the Cosmetic Trim Ring

A cosmetic trim ring is supplied with the head unit for installation flexibility. This unit will fit into most import dashes with little or no modification to the dash board/cavity. Some US domestic vehicle dashes will accept a Double-DIN chassis, but there is usually a small gap between the radio and dash piece after installation is complete. In this case, use the trim ring to conceal any gaps that may be present.

NOTE: For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the chassis must be mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted within this limitation.
