Installation Notes
• To prevent damage to the unit, do not connect the power
connector until you have completed the wiring process.
• This is a 12 volt negative-ground ONLY radio. If you
have a positive ground, or a 6-volt system, you need
to either convert to 12 volts or purchase a separate
inverter that would step up the voltage to 12 volts.
• Please note that the inverter must be rated at 8 amps
or higher in order for the radio to operate properly.
Rear AUX Input
The rear auxiliary input allows you to listen to any portable device
with standard headphone outputs. An example of an external
source would be a MP3 player, iPod®or iPhone®, portable CD player
or portable satellite radio receiver. To use this input, the auxiliary
cable must be routed to an accessible area during installation.
