INSTALLATION
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 computer 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 computer.
2. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing
radio and attach them to the new computer.
CAUTION: Do not exceed M5 X 6 MM screw size. Longer screws may
touch and damage components inside the chassis.
3. Place the computer infront 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 and 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. Connect your monitor (purchased separately) and install any software/
drivers supplied with the monitor. Follow the instructions included with the
monitor to mount the monitor in the vehicle.
NOTE: A PS/2 mouse is required for installing any drivers during initial
setup. DO NOT MOUNT the unit to the dashboard until initial setup is
complete and software is installed.
5. Mount the new computer assembly to the dashboard or center console
using the reverse procedure in step 1.
CAUTION: For proper operation of the DVD player, the chassis must be
mounted within 20° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted within
this limitation.

16. ILLUMINATION WIRE (yellow)
17. ACC POWER WIRE (red) – Connect to a +12 volt circuit that is only live
when the ignition is on. The best connection point is at the car’s fuse
block at the “RADIO” or “ACCESSORY” identified terminals.
18. CONSTANT POWER WIRE (yellow) – Connect the 12V PLUS constant
power wire to a live 12 volt wire in the vehicle. Before making a
connection, check that the wire you intend to connect it to is always live,
even when the car’s ignition is turned off. If a live wire is not found, route
the wire to the car’s fuse block and connect it to a live circuit there.
19. GROUND WIRE (black) – Securely fasten the Ground wire to a grounded
metal part of the car’s chassis. If you cannot find an existing bolt or screw
to fasten it to, drill a hole in the metal and secure it with a screw. To
ensure a good ground, remove any paint or grease from areas where the
wire will contact the surface.
20. INLINE FUSE (red) – When running the red ACC Power wire directly to
the battery, the inline fuse MUST be connected between the unit and the
battery (within 18” of the battery). If the ACC Power wire is connected to
the fuse block, the inline fuse is not required.
