Mounting the Radio

1.Choose a mounting location on the dash board or instrument panel that will allow
room behind to run radio cables to the power source. Consider how you will use
the AUX IN, LINE OUT and USB connectors and route the appropriate extension
cables to an accessible area.

2.Cut a hole （Diameter: 80mm/3.15 inch）in the dash board using the template
provided on page 8. At least 3.5 inch depth is needed to mount the radio.
IMPORTANT! Do not mount this unit where it can be submerged in water.

3.Attach the included screw posts (A) to the back of the radio.

4.Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be brought
through the opening.

5.After completing the wiring connections(page 2), turn the radio on to confirm
operation (vehicle accessary switch must be on). If the radio does not operate.
Recheck all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper operation is
achieved, turn the accessory switch off and proceed with final mounting of the
radio. Refer to the wiring diagram.
NOTE: Before final installation, test the wiring connections to make sure the unit
is connected properly and the system works.

6.Insert the radio into the mounting hole.

7.Place the 'U' bracket (B) over the screw posts and secure the radio to the dash
using the included hex nuts (C).
