INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Using a Mounting
Sleeve
1. Slide the mounting sleeve off the chassis. If
it is locked into position, use the removal
tools (supplied) to disengage it.
2. Check the dashboard opening size by
sliding the mounting sleeve into it. If the
opening is too small, carefully cut or file as
necessary until the sleeve easily slides into
the opening. Do not force the sleeve into the
opening or cause it to bend or bow. Check
for sufficient space behind the dashboard for
the radio chassis.
3. 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 to firmly secure
the sleeve to the dashboard.
4. Place the radio in front of the dashboard
opening so the wiring can be brought
through the mounting sleeve. Follow the
wiring diagram carefully and make certain all
connections are secure and insulated with
wire nuts or electrical tape. After completing
the wiring connections, turn the unit on to
confirm operation (vehicle ignition must be
“on”). If the unit does not operate, re-check
all wiring until the problem is corrected.
5. Make sure the radio is right-side up, then
carefully slide the radio into the mounting
sleeve until it is fully seated and the spring
clips lock it into place.
6. Attach one end of the perforated support
strap (supplied) to the screw stud on the rear
of the chassis using the hex nut provided.
Fasten the other end of the perforated strap
to a secure part of the dashboard either
above or below the radio using the screw
provided. Bend the strap to position it as
necessary.
7. Test the radio using the Operating
Instructions that follow.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your new radio/CD player does not require any
maintenance. However, proper understanding
of its use and handling will help you obtain
maximum enjoyment of its capabilities. We
recommend that you keep this manual for
reference on the many features of this unit as
well as how to set the clock. The following
points should be observed:
• When cleaning the interior of the vehicle, do
not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.
• The CD player is a precision instrument and
will not operate properly in extreme heat or
cold. If such conditions occur, wait until the
interior of the vehicle reaches a normal
temperature before using the player.
• If the temperature inside the player gets too
hot, a protective circuit will automatically
stop play of the disc. In this case, allow the
unit to cool before operating the player
again.
• Never insert anything other than a 5" (12
cm) compact disc into the player as the
mechanism can be damaged by foreign
objects.
• Do not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single
discs in this unit, either with or without an
adaptor, as damage to the player and/or disc
may occur. Such damage will not be covered
by the Warranty on this product.
• When not using the disc player, always
remove the compact disc. Do not leave an
ejected disc sitting in the disc slot as this can
expose it to sunlight and other causes of
damage.
• Do not attempt to open the unit chassis.
There are no user-serviceable parts or
adjustment points inside.
• When the vehicle warms up during cold
weather or under damp conditions,
condensation may appear on the lens of the
disc player. Should this occur, the player will
not operate properly until the moisture has
evaporated.
• The unit is designed with a vibration
dampening CD mechanism to minimize
interruption of disc play due to normal
vibration. When driving on rough roads,
however, occasional sound skips may occur.
This will not scratch or damage the disc and
normal play will resume when the rough
conditions cease.
Handling Compact Discs
Dirt, dust, scratches and warping can cause
skips in the playback and deterioration of sound
quality. Please follow these guidelines to take
care of your compact discs:
• Carefully wipe fingerprints, dust and dirt from
the disc’s playing surface with a soft cloth.
Wipe in a straight motion from the center to
the outside of the disc.
• Never use chemicals such as record sprays
or household cleaners to clean CDs, as they
can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
• Discs should be kept in their storage cases
when not in use.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high
temperatures or high humidity for long
periods.
• Do not stick paper, tape or labels on disc
surfaces.
RESET BUTTON
A Reset button is located behind the
faceplate on the left side (the front panel
must be removed to access the button). The
Reset function should only be activated
under the following circumstances as it will
erase the time and pre-set memories: Upon
initial installation after all wiring is
completed; If there is a malfunction of any
of the switches on the unit, pressing the
Reset button may clear the system and
return to normal operation.
