SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Secure the CD/MP3 player.
When installing your CD/MP3 player in the vehicle, make sure it is mounted properly in the
dash, using an after market installation kit if needed. When using the supplied mounting
bracket, it is a must that you also use the supplied back brace to support the back of the
CD/MP3 player.
Use caution when mounting the CD/MP3 player.
Remember there are many electrical wires, vacuum lines, brake lines and air bag deployment
wires. Make sure you know where they are when mounting the CD/MP3 player to avoid
puncturinglines,andshortingwires.
Use high grade wire connectors.
To ensure maximum power transfer and secure safe connections, it is recommended to use
highgradebarrelorcrimpcapconnectors.
Do not run any wires underneath the vehicle.
Exposedwires can be cut ordamaged. It is best to runall wires through the vehicleunder the
carpetand/orsidepanels. Thisenablestoacleanerinstallationandlessriskofdamage.
Run signal wires away from electrical wires.
To avoid possibility of induced noise from the car's electrical system (i.e. popping noises or
enginenoise),runsignalwiresawayfromthecar'selectricalwiring.
Make all ground wires as short as possible and terminated at the same point.
In order to reduce the chance of ground loops (i.e. engine noise), make the grounded wire as
shortas possible to reducethewire'sresistance. Also, when using multiple components,make
sureallunitsaregroundedatthesamepoint.
Avoid sharp edges when running the wires.
Toavoidthepossibilityofpower,signalorspeakershorts,becarefulnot toallowtheamplifier
wires to come in contact with sharp edges. Use a grommet to protect the wire when running
throughthefirewall.

MOUNTING THE CD/MP3 PLAYER
There are two different ways to mount the CD / MP3 Player. In most Japanese vehicles you
can use the factory mounting brackets, taking advantage of the ISO/DIN opening. If your
vehicle does not have ISO/DIN opening, you can mount the CD/MP3 Player using the supplied
DINsleeveandrearsupportbracket. Whenconsideringyourmountinglocation,makesurethe
unit will be level. If you cannot mount the CD/MP3 Player level, due to your vehicle’s design,
make sure there is no more than a 30 degree tilt. Keeping this in mind will assure proper

standard DIN cutout in the dash
kit, dashboard or Console.

with a screwdriver to secure the bracket
firmly in place.
Insert the CD/MP3 Player in the
mounting sleeve until it locks.

Attach the back brace to the
CD/MP3 player using the supplied
hardware. Then attach the other
end of the brace to a firm
mounting surface (i.e. Dash brace,
fire wall, e.t.c.) This will brace the
back of the CD/MP3 player to
ensure solid mounting to prevent
theft and provide optimal CD play.
Once the CD/MP3 player is secured, fit the trim ring over outside edge of the radio until it
snapsinto place. Inserttheface plate withtheright side first.Anglein therightsideslightly
