Disconnecting the Battery
To prevent a short circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to in-
stallation.
NOTE: If the VM9224BT is to be installed in a car equipped with an on-board drive or navigation computer, do
not disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these
conditions, use extra caution during installation to avoid causing a short circuit.
Replacing the Fuse
When replacing the fuse, use a new 20A replacement fuse. Using a fuse with an improper rating could damage
the unit and cause a fire.
ISO-DIN Installation
This unit is designed to fit into a 2.0 DIN dashboard opening, found in many imported cars. 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 radio to the dashboard.
Please consult with your local car stereo specialty shop for assistance on this type of installation.
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 radio.
Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from
the existing radio and attach them to the new radio.
CAUTION: Do not exceed M5 X 6MM screw size. Longer
screws may damage components inside the chassis.
Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve. Fol-
low the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all con-
nections are secure and insulated with wire nuts or electri-
cal tape. After completing the wiring connections, plug the
ISO connectors into the mating sockets on the rear of the
chassis. 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.
Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console using the reverse procedure in step 1.
CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.
NOTE: It is the end-users responsibility to install and operate this unit in a manner in accordance with local,
state and federal laws. The PARKING BRAKE wire MUST BE CONNECTED as directed in the manual.
CAUTION: Do not block the cooling fan exit. If blocked, the unit may overheat and become damaged.

Installation Using Half-Sleeve
Install half-sleeve in the dashboard.
a. Install adapter if necessary (optional).
b. Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (use only
the supplied screws). Do not force the sleeve into the
opening or cause it to bend or bow.
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power
supply with proper grounding.
c. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top, bottom
and sides of the mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully
inserted into the dashboard opening, bend as many of
the tabs outward as necessary so that the sleeve is
firmly secured to the dashboard.
Use the M5 x 6 screws (provided) to install the mounting
brackets to each side of the radio using the holes indicated
in the diagram. DO NOT USE OTHER SCREWS.
Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram. Once
the wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative
terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the ACC lead
to the power supply with a switch.
CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.
After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on
to confirm operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does
not operate, recheck all wiring until problem is corrected.
Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition
switch and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.
a. Connect wiring adapter to existing wiring harness.
b. Connect antenna lead.
c. Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve, making
sure it is right-side-up. Use the supplied screws to at-
tach the radio to the half sleeve.
Using the Cosmetic Trim Ring
Two cosmetic trim rings are packaged with the head unit for
installation flexibility. This unit will fit into most import dashes
with little or no modification to the dash board/cavity. Some US
domestic vehicle dashes will accept a Double-DIN chassis, but
there is usually a small gap between the radio and dash piece af-
ter installation is complete. In this case, use the appropriate trim
ring to conceal any gaps that may be present.
NOTE: For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the chassis
must be mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make sure the unit
is mounted within this limitation.
