Connection/Installation

Cautions

• Run all ground (earth) leads to a common ground (earth) point.
• Do not get the leads trapped under a screw, or caught in moving parts (e.g., seat railing).
• Before making connections, turn the car ignition off to avoid short circuits.
• Connect the power supply lead ⑥ to the unit and speakers before connecting it to the auxiliary power connector.
• Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected leads with electrical tape for safety.

Precautions

• Choose the installation location carefully so that the unit will not interfere with normal driving operations.
• Avoid installing the unit in areas subject to dust, dirt, excessive vibration, or high temperature, such as in direct sunlight or near heater ducts.
• Use only the supplied mounting hardware for a safe and secure installation.

Note on the power supply lead (yellow)

When connecting this unit in combination with other stereo components, the amperage rating of the car circuit to which the unit is connected must be higher than the sum of each component's fuse amperage rating.

Mounting angle adjustment

Adjust the mounting angle to less than 45°.

Using the wired remote control

1 To enable the wired remote control, set [STR CONTROL] in [SET STEERING] to [PRESET] (page 10).

Installation

Removing the protection collar and the bracket

Before installing the unit, remove the protection collar ③ and the bracket ① from the unit.

1 Pinch both edges of the protection collar ③ then pull it out.

2 Insert both release keys ② until they click, and pull down the bracket ①, then pull up the unit to separate.

Mounting the unit in the dashboard

Before installing, make sure the catches on both sides of the bracket ① are bent inwards 2mm (3/32 in).

1 Position the bracket ① inside the dashboard, then bend the claws outward for a tight fit.

2 Mount the unit onto the bracket ①, then attach the protection collar ③.

Notes

• If the catches are straight or bent outwards, the unit will not be installed securely and may spring out. Make sure the 4 catches on the protection collar are properly engaged in the slots of the unit.
