WARNINGS
Please read the following warnings
carefully before operating your receiver.
DO NOT ENGAGE WITH FEATURES
THAT PREVENT YOU FROM DRIVING
YOUR VEHICLE SAFELY
If a function requires extended attention,
use it only after coming to a complete
stop in a safe location in order to prevent
a collision.
KEEP VIEWING OF THE DISPLAY
TO A MINIMUM
Excessive interaction with the display
can keep you from keeping your eyes on
the road and may result in a collision.
MAINTAIN A SAFE VOLUME LEVEL
THAT LETS YOU HEAR OUTSIDE
NOISES WHILE DRIVING.
High volume levels that prevent you from
hearing sounds like emergency vehicle
sirens or warning signals (such as at train
crossings) are dangerous and might
cause a collision. Listening at high
volume can also result in hearing loss.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER
THE LEGEND CP100
Alteration to the receiver may result in an
accident, fire, or electric shock.
FOR USE ONLY IN VEHICLES WITH A
12-VOLT CHARGING SYSTEM AND
NEGATIVE GROUND
Use in vehicles with anything other than
a 12-volt charging system could result in
accident, fire, or electic shock. If you are
not sure if your vehicle uses a 12-volt
system, check with your dealer.
WHEN REPLACING FUSES, USE THE
CORRECT AMPERE RATING
Using incorrectly rated fuses could result
in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR
RADIATOR PANELS IN THE VEHICLE
Installing the receiver incorrectly can
cause heat to build up in the vehicle and
could result in fire.

REACH OF CHILDREN
Swallowing objects such as screws may
result in serious injury. If swallowed, dial
911 immediately.

A PROBLEM APPEARS
Continued use if a problem occurs could
cause personal injury or damage to the
product. Return it to an authorized JBL
dealer for repair.

periodically. For severe stains, use a
cloth lightly dampened with water only.

Mounting
Wiring connection guide
In many vehicles, you’ll use the factory brackets to secure the receiver in
the dash. Installation methods vary from vehicle to vehicle.
Function Wire color Function Wire color Function Wire color Function Wire color
ACC power Red Parking brake Light green Front left speaker + White Rear left speaker + Dark green
Constant power Yellow Reverse signal Violet/white Front left speaker – White/black Rear left speaker – Green/black

Installing the Legend CP100 will vary from vehicle to vehicle. You’ll need to
purchase or fabricate a mounting bracket to secure the receiver in the dash of
your vehicle. You’ll also need to purchase a vehicle-specific wiring harness,
or splice the receiver’s wires directly to your vehicle’s power and signal
wires. If you do not have the necessary tools or experience, do not
attempt the installation yourself. Instead, please ask your authorized
JBL car audio dealer about professional installation.
INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS
IMPORTANT: Disconnect the vehicle’s negative (–)
battery terminal before beginning the installation.

your parking brake lead, as certain functions will only operate with
the parking brake engaged.
• Check the height and depth of your vehicle’s dash cavity
(see page 15 for receiver chassis dimensions). Take depth
of any extra cables into consderation.
• When making electrical connections, make sure they are
secure and properly insulated.
