Playback Time

---|---|---|---
Audio CD| | 12 cm single side| 74 minutes

NOTE: CD-R and CD-RW discs will not play unless the recording session is closed and the CD is finalized.

Disc Maintenance

A dirty or defective disc may cause sound dropouts while playing. Before playing, wipe the disc using a clean cloth, working from the center hole towards the outside edge.
Never use benzene, thinners, cleaning fluids, anti-static liquids or any other solvent.

Insert label side up.

Do not bend.

Never touch the under side of the disc.

Wipe clean from the center to the edge.

Be sure to use only round CDs for this unit and do not use any special shape CDs. Use of special shape CDs may cause the unit to malfunction.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc. Do not use CDs with labels or stickers attached or that have sticky residue from removed stickers.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air-ducts, or leave them in a vehicle parked in direct sunlight where there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the vehicle.

NOTE: A disc may become scratched (although not enough to make it unusable) depending on how you handle it and other conditions in the usage environment. These scratches are not an indication of a problem with the player.

INSTALLATION

Before You Begin

Disconnect Battery
Before you begin, always disconnect the battery negative terminal.
Remove Transport Screws

Important Notes

Before final installation, test the wiring connections to make sure the unit is connected properly and the system works.
Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts can cause malfunctions.
Consult with your nearest dealer if installation requires the drilling of holes or other modifications to your vehicle.
Install the unit where it does not interfere with driving and cannot injure passengers if there is a sudden or emergency stop.
If the installation angle exceeds 30º from horizontal, the unit might not give optimum performance.
This unit is not waterproof and is intended for interior mounting applications only. Exterior mounting of the unit requires use of an ASA approved marine housing.
Avoid installing the unit where it will be subject to high temperatures from direct sunlight, hot air, or from a heater, or where it would be subject to excessive dust, dirt or vibration.
Be sure to remove the control panel before installing the unit.

DIN Front/ Rear Mount

This unit can be property installed with either a “Front” (conventional DIN front mount) or “Rear” (DIN rear mount installation, utilizing threaded screw holes at the sides of the unit chassis) mount. For details, refer to installation methods A and B.

DIN Front Mount (Method A)

1. Remove the detachable front panel, if it is attached to the chassis, by pushing the REL button.

Dashboard
Bend Tabs
Screw Stud

2. 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. The removal keys are depicted in “Removing the Unit” on page 3.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
6. Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all connections are secure and insulated with crimp connectors or electrical tape to ensure proper operation.
7. After completing the wiring connections, attach the front panel and 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.
8. 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.
9. Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to the screw stud on the rear of the chassis using the hex nut and spring washer 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 plain washer 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.

10. Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and test radio operation by referring to the operating instructions for the unit.

Removing the Unit
To remove the radio after installation:

Insert fingers into the groove in the front of frame and pull out to remove the frame. (When re-attaching the frame, point the side with a groove downwards and reattach.)
Insert the removal keys straight back until they click, and then pull the radio out. If removal keys are inserted at an angle, they will not lock properly to release the unit.

Trim Plate Installation
Push the trim plate against the chassis until it is fitted. You must do this before you install the control panel, otherwise it can’t be attached.

DIN Rear Mount (Method B)

This unit has threaded holes in the chassis side panels which may be used with the original factory mounting brackets of some vehicles to mount the radio to the dashboard. Please consult with your local mobile stereo shop for assistance on this type of installation.

1. Remove the existing factory radio from the dashboard or center console mounting. Save all hardware and brackets as they will be used to mount the new radio.
2. Carefully unsnap the plastic trim ring from the front of the new radio chassis. Remove and discard the trim ring.
3. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing radio and attach them to the new radio. Select a position where the screw holes of the bracket and the screw holes of the main unit are aligned (are fitted).
Tighten the screws at 2 places on each side. Do not exceed M5 x 9 MM maximum screw size. Longer screws may damage components inside the chassis.

4. Wire the new radio to the vehicle as outlined in the Universal Installation instructions.
5. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console using the reverse procedure of step 1.

NOTE: The mounting box, outer trim ring, and half-sleeve are not used for method B installation.

Reconnect Battery

When wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative terminal.

Detachable Control Panel (DCP)

Removing the Detachable Control Panel (DCP)

Turn the power off.
Press the REL button.
Remove the DCP.
PANEL RELEASE BUTTON

Attaching the DCP

Attach the panel at the right side first, with point B on the main unit touching point A on the DCP (as shown in the diagram).
Press the left side of the DCP onto the main unit until a “click” is heard.

CAUTION:

DO NOT insert the DCP from the left side. Doing so may damage it.
The DCP can easily be damaged if dropped or subjected to a strong shock. When the release button is pressed and the DCP is unlocked, the vehicle’s vibrations may cause it to fall. To prevent damage to the DCP, always store it in a protective case after detaching it.
The rear connector that connects the main unit and the DCP is an extremely important part. Be careful not to damage it by pressing on it with fingernails, pens, screwdrivers, etc.
If the DCP is dirty, remove debris with a soft, dry cloth only. You can use a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol to clean the socket on the back of the DCP.
