UNIVERSAL INSTALLATION AND IMPORT CAR INSTALLATION  
This installation is designed for cars, trucks, vans, and boats that have an existing radio opening that is  
no larger than the size shown on the template provided (182mm wide x 53mm high). If the opening is  
smaller than required, you can use a file to enlarge it to match the template, using the slots on the template  
as a guide. If you have no existing radio opening, use the template to accurately cut the required size  
as per the slots on the template.  
CAUTION: 1. DO NOT CUT OR FILE THE OPENING TO THE OUTER EDGES OF THE TEMPLATE!  
2. FOR PROPER OPERATION OF THE CD PLAYER, THE CHASSIS MUST BE WITHIN 20°  
OF HORIZONTAL. MAKE SURE THE UNIT IS MOUNTED WITHIN THIS LIMITATION.  
1. InspecttheExistingRadioOpening:  
A. Use the radio opening template (supplied) to make sure the dashboard opening is the proper size.  
If your vehicle does not have an existing opening of this size, it will be necessary to cut or file the  
opening to these dimensions.  
B. Check that there will be sufficient space behind the dashboard for the radio chassis.  
2. PreparetheRadioforinstallation:  
A. Carefully check the radio chassis for any shipping screws that are labeled "Remove Before  
Installation" and remove them as necessary.  
B. Remove the detachable front panel if it is attached to the chassis, as explained in the Operating  
Instructions section of this manual.  
C. Using the 2 removal tools (supplied), remove the mounting sleeve from the radio chassis as shown  
in the diagram below.  
3. MountingtheRadioSleeve:  
A. 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.  
B. Locate the series of bend tabs along the top, bottom, and sides of the mounting sleeve. With the  
sleeve fully inserted in the dashboard opening, bend as many of the tabs outward as necessary  
so that the sleeve is firmly secured to the dashboard.

is corrected.  
D. Once proper operation is achieved, turn off ignition switch, remove front panel, and proceed with  
final mounting of the radio.  
5. InstallingtheRadiointheMountingSleeve:  
A. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve until it is fully seated and the side spring clips snap  
in place.  
B. Attach one end of the perforated strap (supplied) to the screw stud on the rear of the radio using  
the hex nut provided.  
C. 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.  
CAUTION: The rear of the radio must be supported with the strap to prevent possible damage to the  
dashboard from the weight of the radio or improper operation of the radio due to vibration.  
D. Re-attach the front panel to the chassis and check operation of the unit by referring to the Operating  
Instructions section of this manual.  
6. Removing the Radio:

stations.  
During FM radio operation, this button is used to  
select mono or stereo reception of the broadcast  
signal. Under normal reception conditions, the unit  
should be left in the stereo mode, as indicated by  
“ST” on the display panel when listening to an FM  
stereo signal. If the stereo signal is too weak for  
comfortable listening, press the button to switch to  
mono reception (the “ST” will disappear from the

Pressing the button for longer than 2 seconds will  
activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature. The radio  
will automatically scan the band in use and enter  
strong stations into the pre-set memory positions  
for that band. If you have already set the pre-set  
memories of that band to your favorite stations,  
activating the Auto-Store Tuning feature will erase  
those stations and enter the new strong stations.  
This feature is most useful when travelling in a new  
area where you are not familiar with the local  
stations.

FREQUENCY STEP SWITCH  
This unit is supplied pre-set at the factory for reception of North American radio stations (10 KHz. channel  
spacing on AM/200 KHz. spacing on FM). Use in other areas in the world may require different channel  
spacing. A switch on the bottom of the chassis allows selection of 9 KHz. AM/50 KHz. FM channel  
sdpmacing. Slide the switch to the appropriate position using a small screwdriver blade. The Re-Set button  
on the front of the chassis must then be pressed to activate the change of channel spacing.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
The radio section of your new sound system does not require any maintenance. We recommend you  
keep this manual for reference on the many features found in this unit as well as how to set the clock.  
The compact disc player section also requires no routine maintenance, but proper understanding of  
its use and handling will help you obtain maximum enjoyment of its capabilities. The following points  
should be observed:  
When cleaning the interior of the vehicle, do not get water or cleaning fluids on the unit.  
The CD player is a precision instrument and will not operate properly in extreme hot or cold. In  
case of such conditions, wait until the interior temperature of the vehicle reaches a normal  
temperature before using the player.  
If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a protective circuit will automatically stop play  
of the disc. In this case, allow the unit to cool off before operating the player again.  
Never insert anything other than a 5" (12 cm) compact disc into the player as the mechanism  
can be damaged by foreign objects.  
Do not attempt to use 3" (8 cm) CD-Single discs in this unit, either with or without an adaptor,  
as damage to the player and/or disc may occur. Such damage will not be covered by the  
Warranty on this product.  
When not using the disc player, always remove the compact disc. Do not leave an ejected disc  
sitting in the disc slot as this can expose it to sunlight and other causes of damage.  
Do not attempt to open the unit chassis. There are no user serviceable parts or adjustments  
inside.  
When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp conditions, moisture may  
condense on the lens of the disc player. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly  
until the moisture has evaporated.  
The unit is designed with a vibration dampening CD mechanism to minimize interruption of disc  
play due to normal vibration in a moving vehicle. When driving on very rough roads, however,  
occasional sound skips may occur. This will not scratch or damage the disc and normal play  
will resume when the rough conditions cease.  
HANDLING COMPACT DISCS  
Dirt, dust, scratches, and warpage can cause skips in the playback and deterioration of sound quality.  
Please follow these guidelines to take care of your compact discs:  
Use only compact discs with the  
mark.  
Fingerprints, dust, and dirt should be carefully wiped off the disc’s playing surface (shiny side)  
with a soft cloth.  
Wipe in a straight motion from the inside to the outside of the disc.  
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, household cleaners or thinner to clean compact  
discs. Such chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.  
Discs should be kept in their storage cases when not in use.  
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperatures or high humidity for extended periods.  
Do not stick paper, tape, or labels on the disc surfaces nor write on them with any type of marker.
