KIT ASSEMBLY – PRELIMINARY

FOR SINGLE DIN INSTALLATION
Push the DIN cage into the top opening of the fascia panel and bend the locking tabs down to secure it in place. For ISO installation, use the two (2) ISO brackets included in the kit and secure them to the right and left sides of the stereo using the screws supplied with the stereo
Push the pocket into the bottom opening of the fascia panel (Fig. C)

Push the single DIN stereo into the cage until it clips into place

FOR DOUBLE DIN INSTALLATION
Cut and remove the central bar from the fascia panel

Snap the two square plastic brackets to the inside edges of the fascia panel (Fig. D).
Push the double DIN head unit into the fascia and bracket assembly and use a screwdriver to fix it into place using the screws supplied with the stereo

PREPARING THE PATCH LEAD

To correctly configure the interface for installation, the included patch lead (CTMULTILEAD.2) must be set according to the below information, in relation to the type of aftermarket stereo being installed in the vehicle.
See the diagram below for examples of which loops to cut and which connector type to use for all main brands of aftermarket stereo

INSTALLING THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROL INTERFACE

The steering wheel control functions of the original vehicle – which are lost during removal of the factory system – can be retained through the correct installation of the interface included in this kit. Please read these instructions carefully to ensure that your system will work well following the installation. 

Connect the 12 Pin black connector of the stereo patch lead to the interface.

Connect the opposite end of the patch lead to the steering wheel control input on the back of the new stereo.
NB: This may be a 3.5mm jack plug or a wire input depending upon the stereo brand being fitted. Please see the stereo installation manual for further information on where to connect.
IMPORTANT
This step must be completed before connecting power to the interface. Failure to so do may result in no steering wheel control function.

Connect the 14 Pin black connector of the main wiring loom to the interface

Connect the male power/speaker ISO harness to the female power/speaker ISO harness from the new stereo. For new stereos without an ISO connector and for connecting optional inputs, please refer to “Wiring Colour Codes” below.

Next, connect the vehicle’s ISO antenna connection to the antenna adapter, and push the antenna adapter into the DIN connector on the back of the new stereo (Fig. E).

NB: Before final installation, temporarily rest the stereo inside the dashboard and test functions (e.g. radio reception etc) before pushing the stereo into place to complete the fitting.

Once in place, clip the trim panel around the stereo and reassemble all other components in reverse order of disassembly to complete the installation (Fig F).
