□ Overview

This product should be installed by a professional.

□ Identify All Leads

The first Step in installation is to identify all the car wires you’ll use when hooking up your sound sys­ tem.

As

you

identify

each

wire, we suggest

that

you

label

it

using

masking

tape

and

a

permanent

marker.

This

will

help

avoid

confusion

when

making

con­

nections later.

Note:

Do

not

connect the power connector to the

stereo

unit until

you

have made all connections. If

there

are

no

plastic

caps

on

the

stereo

hooking

wires,

insulate

all exposed leads with electrical tape

until

you

are

ready to

use

them. Identify

the

leads

in the following order

Power Lead

If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one:

Cut the connector wires one at a time from the plug {leaving the leads as long as possible) so that you can work with individual leads.

1

Turn the ignition on to the accessory position, and ground one lead of the test bulb to the chassis.

Touch the other lead of the test bulb to each of the

exposed wires			from	the		cut		radio	connector		plug.
Touch one wire at a					time		until you		find	the	outlet
that causes the test bulb to light.
Now	turn	the	ignition		off	and		then	on. If	the	bulb
also	turns	off	and	on,	that		outlet is		the	car	power
lead.

If your car is not wired for an audio unit:

Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for radio (RADIO), accessory (ACC), or ignition (IGN).

Battery Lead

If your stereo unit has a			yellow lead, you will need
to locate the car’s battery			lead.	Otherwise	you	may
ignore	this procedure.	(The	yellow	battery	lead	pro­
vides	continuous power	to	maintain a clock, memo­

ry storage, or other function.)

If your car has a radio or is pre-wired for one:
With the ignition and headlights off, identify		the	car
battery	lead by grounding one lead of the	test	bulb
to the	chassis and checking the remaining	exposed

wires from the cut radio connector plug.

f your car is not wired for an audio unit:

Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for the battery, usually marked BAT.

Speakers

Identify	the	car speaker	leads.	There		are	two	leads
for each speaker which are usually color coded.
A handy way to identify the speaker leads and								the
speaker	they are connected with is to test the							leads
using a 1.5 volt AA battery as follows.
Hold one lead against one pole of						the	battery	and
stroke	the other lead across the other pole. You will
hear a	scraping sound in one of the					speakers if		you
are holding a speaker lead.
If not,	keep	testing different		lead	combinations			until
you have located all the			speaker		leads.		When	you
label them, include the speaker location for each.

Antenna Motor

If your car is equipped with an automatic power an­ tenna, identify the car motor antenna lead by con­

necting one			bulb	tester lead to the car battery lead
and	touching		the	remaining exposed wires from the
cut	radio	connector plug			one at	a time. You will
hear	the	antenna		motor	activate	when you touch

the correct wire.

Antenna

The	antenna lead is a thick, black wire					with		a metal
plug at the end.
□ Connect All Leads
Now	that you have	identified	all	the	wires		in	the	car,
you	are ready to begin connecting					them		to	the
stereo unit wires. The wiring diagram						{»	page		24)
shows the proper		connections		and	color		coding of
the leads.
We	strongly recommend that you test					the unit			be­
fore making a final installation.
You	can set the unit on the floor and					make		tempo­
rary	connections to	test the	unit. Use			electrical			tape
to cover all exposed wires.
Important: Connect the red power lead							last,		after
you have made and Insulated all other connections.

Speakers

Connect the speaker wires. See the connection									dia­
gram {■ => page 24) for the					proper hookups. Follow
the	diagram	carefully	to	avoid	damaging		the	speak­
ers and the stereo unit.
The	speakers	used	must	be	able	to	handle		more
than 45 watts of audio power. If						using	an	optional
audio amplifier, the speakers should						be able		to	han­
dle	the maximum amplifier output					power.		Speakers

with low input ratings can be damaged. Speaker

impedance should measure 4-8		ohms,	which is
typically marked	on most speakers.	Lower	or	high­
er impedance	speakers will affect	output	and	can

cause both speaker and stereo unit damage.

Motor Antenna

Connect the car motor antenna lead to the dark blue motor antenna relay control lead.

Battery

Connect the yellow battery lead to the correct radio wire or to the battery fuse port on the fuse block.

Antenna

Connect the antenna by plugging the antenna lead into the antenna receptacle.

Equipment

Connect any optional	equipment such	as an	ampli­
fier, according to	the instructions	furnished	with

the equipment. Leave about 12 inches {30 cm) of

distance between the speaker leads/amplifier unit

and the antenna/antenna extension cord. Read the

operating and installation instructions of any equip­ ment you will connect to this unit.

Power

Connect the red power lead	to the correct		car	radio
wire or to the appropriate	fuse port	on	the	fuse
block.
If the stereo unit functions	properly	with	all	these

connections made, disconnect the wires and pro­ ceed to the final installation.

□ Final Installation

Lead Connections

Connect		all	wires,		making sure			that	each	connec­
tion	is	insulated		and		secure. Bundle all loose wires
and	fasten		them	with		tape so they will not fall down
later.	Now		insert		the	stereo	unit	into	the	mounting
collar.
Congratulations!				After		making	a	few	final	checks,
you're ready to enjoy your new auto stereo system.
