Thank You!
Thank you for choosing a JENSEN product. We’ve tried to make the instructions in this owner’s manual clear and easy to follow. If you take a few minutes to look through it, you’ll learn how to use all of the features of your new JENSEN stereo for maximum enjoyment.

Preparation

Getting Started
It’s a good idea to read all of the instructions before beginning the installation.
Tools and Supplies Needed
• Torx type, flat-head and Phillips screwdrivers
• Wire cutters and strippers
• Tools to remove existing radio (screwdriver, socket wrench set or other tools)
•Electrical tape
• Crimping tool
• Volt meter/test light
• Crimp connections
• 18 gauge wire for power connections
• 16 – 18 gauge speaker wire
• Speaker Requirements: Only connect speakers rated in the load impedance of 4 ohms.
Speakers with a load impedance less than 4 ohms could damage the unit.
Disconnect Battery
Before you begin, always disconnect the battery negative terminal.

Installation

Universal Installation Using Mounting Sleeve
1. Slide the mounting sleeve off of the chassis if it has not already been removed. If it is locked into position, use the removal keys (supplied) to disengage it.
2. Check the dashboard opening size by sliding the mounting sleeve into it. If the opening is not large enough, 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 that there will be 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. 5. Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections are secure and insulated with crimp connectors or electrical tape to ensure proper operation.
6. After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm operation (vehicle ignition switch must be on). If the unit does not operate, recheck all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper operation is achieved, turn the ignition switch off and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.
7. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve making sure it is right-side-up until it is fully seated and the spring clips lock it into place.
8. 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 and hex nut provided. Bend the strap, as necessary, to position it. CAUTION: The rear of the radio must be supported with the strap to prevent damage to the dashboard from the weight of the radio or improper operation due to vibration.
9. Test radio operation by referring to the operating instructions for the unit.
Wiring
Wiring with a Wiring Adapter (purchased separately)
1. Splice or crimp wires.
2. Attach wiring adapter to vehicle wiring harness.
3. Re-connect the battery negative terminal and test radio operation to confirm correct wiring. Wiring Diagram 1. MICROPHONE CONNECTIONS
See “Using Microphones” on page 9.
2. AUX IR CONNECTIONS
