Installation
1. If not yet connected, connect the cable to the Bluetooth adapter. The cable has a 2x6
connector on one side, and on the other side one red wire, one black wire and a 2x5
connector. With the adapter in the orientation shown above, push the 2x6 connector
into the adapter, such that the red wire is in the bottom left position, and the black
wire is in the top left position.
2. Take the radio out of the dashboard and connect the 2x5 connector to the back of the
radio on the socket marked in yellow (first push it through the corresponding hole in
the main connector). The same wires that are on the top of the adapter (the side with
the maakbaas logo), should be on the top at the radio side.
3. The red wire should be connected to switched 12V which can be connected to the
radio wire at pin 5 (shown above in red). Cut this wire, strip both ends, and put both
ends together with the red wire from the adapter in the three slots of one of the Wago
terminal blocks. Note that this is the convenient, out-of-the-box solution. Feel free to
solder or splice the wires together if you have the skills and tools.
4. Do the same for the black wire from the adapter to the ground, which can be taken to
radio wire 15, indicated in grey above.
5. That’s it, your radio is now Bluetooth enabled
