GENERAL INSTALLATIONAPPROACH:
1)Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed
(i.e.: what components, VCP,Tuner,RF Modulator/externalamp,
remoteheadphones, DVD, etc.).
2)Reviewall manuals to become familiar withelectrical requirements
and hookups.
3)Decideupon mounting locations of all componentsandmethodof
mounting.
4)Prep the vehicle by removing anyinteriortrim necessary to gain ac-
cess to vehicle'swiring as well asall areas whereinterconnecting
wire harnesseswillneed to belocated.Ifany access holes need to
be cut intothevehicle(headliner,other trim components etc.), this
should be done nowas well.
5)Route the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicleas necessary.
(Refer to theWiringDiagrams on page10 of this manual as wellas
the wiringinstructions for the individual components and accessory
options being installed).Besure thatall wiring isprotected from
sharpedges and is routed in such amannerthatitwill notbe pinched
whenall components andinterior trim arefully installed. Be sure to
leaveenoughslack inthewiringateachcomponenttoallowworking
room.
6)Remove allA/V system components fromtheirpackaging and place
them looselyin the vehicle at their respective locations.
7)Connectallcomponents together(electrically)and verifyproper op-
erationof all system functions.Note:This is bestdoneBEFORE
components have been permanentlymounted.
8)Afterverifyingproper operation ofthe system,proceed tomounteach
ofthecomponents.
9)When all components are mounted, recheckfunction ofentire sys-
tem againto ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected im-
properlyduringfinal installation.
