NOTE: For Atoto, Blaupunkt, Dual, Farenheit, Power Acoustik, Soundstream, and most on-brand radios, check the aftermarket radio’s manual to see if the SWC buttons need to be programmed.

3.5MM SWC CABLE
Plug in the 3.5MM to 4-Pin SWC cable to the SWC module.

Note that some radios only have SWC1 and SWC2, in this case, “shield” does not need to be connected.

NISSAN BLUETOOTH BYPASS

In select Nissan vehicles, the factory Bluetooth buttons on the steering wheel are routed through the factory Bluetooth module. The factory Bluetooth module cannot be retained with the new aftermarket radio. You must bypass the factory Bluetooth module by plugging in the NSBT-BP (included in the kit) to the Bluetooth module to use the factory Bluetooth buttons.
