1. This set is exclusively for use in cars with a negative
ground, 12 V power supply.
2. Read these instructions carefully.
3. Be sure to disconnect the battery “v” terminal before
starting. This is to prevent short circuits during
installation. (Figure 1)

■Universal Mount
1. Place the universal mounting bracket into the instrument panel, use a screwdriver to
bend each stopper of the universal mounting bracket inward, then secure the stopper
as shown in Figure 4.
2. Wire as shown in Section 7.
3. Insert the source unit into the universal mounting bracket until it locks.
4. Take care of the top and bottom of the outer escutcheon and mount it so that all the
hooks are locked.

1. Prepare all articles necessary for installing the source unit before starting.
2. Install the unit within 30° of the horizontal plane. (Figure 2)
3. If you have to do any work on the car body, such as drilling holes, consult your car
dealer beforehand.
4. Use the enclosed screws for installation. Using other screws can cause damage.

■Fixed Mount (Using the bracket originally equipped in vehicle)
This unit is designed for fixed installation in the dashboard.
If the vehicle is equipped with a factory-installed radio, install the source unit with the
parts and screws marked (★). (Figure 5)
If the vehicle is not equipped with a factory-installed radio, obtain an installation kit to
install the source unit in the following procedure.
1. Remove the springs at both sides of the source unit (Figure 6).
2. Secure the mounting brackets to the chassis as shown in Figure 5. When the
source unit is installed without the universal mounting bracket, holes exist;
modification, such as drilling new holes, of the mounting brackets may be required
for other models.
3. Wire as shown in Installation (Section 7).
4. Secure the unit in the dashboard, and then reassemble the dashboard and the
center panel.

Note:
When drilling the installment panel, the wiring on the car, the air conditioner ducts,

During installation, sufficiently check the rear side of the panel and its strength, and
prevent the tips of the mounting screws from touching the wiring or air conditioner
ducts.

■1. Be sure to turn the power off when wiring.
2. Be particularly careful where you route the wires. Keep them well away from the
engine, exhaust pipe, etc. Heat may damage the wires.
3. If the fuse should blow, check that the wiring is correct.
If it is, replace the fuse with a new one with the same amperage rating as the
original one. (Figure 10)
Note:
There are various types of fuse holder. Do not let the battery side touch other metal parts.
4. Connect the CeNET extension cable fully and securely until it locks. When the
CeNET extension cable is pulled, hold the slide cap part and pull it towards you.
∗When the CeNET extension cable is extended or branches, use extension cable
CCA-520 (2.5m) or CCA-521 (0.6m), or Y-adapter CCA-519 (each of them is sold
separately).
∗Use the CeNET extension cable made by Clarion.
5. Insert the black connector securely into the digital signal connector until it locks.
(Figure 11)
When disconnecting an optical digital cable, squeeze the tabs at the right and left
sides of the connector, and pull gently. (Figure 12)
Note:
The optical digital cable should not be bent with a gentle arc radius of 1.5 cm or
less. If it is bent sharper than this, the performance of the cable will be greatly
reduced and the cable may be damaged.

Notes:
∗When the optical digital cable is connected to or disconnected from this set later, press the function button while holding down direct
buttons [1] and [6] with the power OFF to perform a system check.
Though pressing the reset button also performs a system check, the contents of memory will be erased completely in this case.
∗When the digital input of a DVD changer is connected, read the Owner's Manual provided with the DVD changer, and change "AUDIO

1. Do not open the case. There are no user serviceable parts inside. If you drop
anything into the unit during installation, consult your dealer or an authorized
CLARION service center.
2. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the case. Never use hard cloth, thinner, benzen, alcohol,
etc. For tough dirt, apply a little cold or warm water to a soft cloth and wipe off the dirt
gentry.
IMPORTANT:
Improper installation may cause damage to your unit or car. If you do not have the
appropriate experience, consult a qualified installer. Cutting chassis wire leads voids
the warranty.
