Preparation
1.2.1
Connection of Power Cable
First of all, please check whether there is a hole for the
power cable on the insulating board. If no, please bore the
board with the suitable drill bit and fix a rubber grommet on it.
Afterwards, please have the cable pass through the
insulating board and lead from the car into the car engine.
Connect the red conductor to the positive terminal of the
accumulator and the black conductor to the negative terminal.
At last, ring the remained conductor and fix it.
Note: Please maintain the sufficient relaxation of the
power cable to make it convenient to dismantle the radio in
the state of power connection.

Warning: For passengers' safety, please fix the radio firmly
on the fixed bracket so that the radio will not be loosened in

fixed bracket with 4 M5*16 self-tapping screws. (Note: please fix
the radio at the position convenient for operation and control,
and leave an enough space for fixation and connection of the
cable.)
Slide the radio into the fixed bracket and fix it with 4 M4*10
combination screws (plus plain washer and spring washer).
(Different combinations of fixing holes are selectable to adjust
the radio to the proper height and visual angle.)
