Installation
Faxback Doc. # 37644
BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE INSTALLATION
Before you install your stereo, read all the instructions in this owner's
manual. You should be able to answer all of these questions about your
vehicle's electrical and sound systems.
Which of the stereo's wires is the power wire?
Which terminal in my vehicle's fuse box is for accessories?
How do I connect a wire to the fuse box?
Which stereo wires are line-level outputs and which are speaker
outputs?
Also, be aware that installation in your vehicle might require cutting or
modifying your vehicle.
Preparing the Mounting Area
Before you mount the stereo, make sure you have all the necessary
materials. Then confirm that the stereo fits your vehicle's mounting
area.
Notes:
This autosound stereo system is a DIN-E size unit that requires a
2 1/4 inch (57 mm) high by 7 1/2 inch (190 mm) wide by 7 1/4 inch
(186 mm) deep mounting area.
If the mounting area is too large, you might be able to mount the
stereo with an in-dash installation kit, available at your local
Radio Shack store. Follow the installation kit's instructions to
mount the stereo.
Cautions:
Make sure your vehicle's mounting area is at level as possible.
If you cannot mount the stereo exactly level, make sure the stereo
will not tilt up more than 30 degrees when it is mounted.
Be careful to avoid obstructions behind the mounting surface.

Routing Speaker Wires
If you install speakers, avoid routing the speaker wires near moving parts
or sharp edges. You can usually route it along the wiring channel beneath
the vehicle's door facings by carefully removing the molding that holds
the carpet in place. After you route the speaker wires, replace the
molding.
Removing the Shipping Screw
The shipping screw helps protect the stereo's CD player from being damaged
during shipment.
Before you mount the stereo, use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove
the shipping screw from the top of the stereo.
Caution:
If you do not remove the shipping screw, you cannot remove the
supplied sleeve from the stereo and the CD player will not work.
Note:
Save the shipping screw in case you ever want to mail or ship the
stereo. You can secure it to the back of the stereo with a piece of
tape.
MAKING THE CONNECTIONS
The supplied harness with the 14-pin connector includes all the lead wires
you need to connect the stereo to ground, power, some optional components,
and speakers.
Important:
Do not cut these wires. If you cut any wire, you cannot obtain a
refund or exchange on this product. Radio Shack will provide warranty
service if you cut a wire and find the product is defective.
You might need additional wire, depending on your individual auto
sound system, to complete the connections.
Your local Radio Shack store carries a full line of wire and wire management
accessories.

Cautions:
For added safety and to protect your stereo, disconnect the cable from
your vehicle battery's negative (-) terminal before you begin.
(new illus)
Be sure your speakers can handle 32 watts of power
(16 watts power channel). Each speaker must have an impedance
of at least 4 ohms. Your local Radio Shack store carries a full
line of speakers.
You must connect the GROUND, +12V TO IGNITION, and +12V TO BATTERY
wires first, then make all other connections as described in the
following sections before you plug the harness with the 14-pin
connector into the stereo. If you do not make connections in the
order shown, damage to the stereo is possible if any wire connections
are made incorrectly.
You must connect a separate wire to each speaker terminal as described
in the following procedure. Do not use a common wire or chassis
ground for any speaker connection.
Note:
The wiring harness has the following labels.
Using an Adapter Harness
If you are replacing an existing stereo, or if your vehicle has been
factory-wired for auto-sound components, you might be able to use an
adapter harness to connect the power and speakers. Radio Shack stores
sell adapter harnessers for most vehicles.
Follow the directions that come with the adapter harness to temporarily
connect the power and speakers.
Connecting Ground, Power, and Optional Components
Follow these steps to connect the harness with the 14-pin connector to
ground, primary and memory backup power, and optional components.
1. Disconnect the cable from your vehicle battery's negative (-)
terminal.
2. Connect the black ground wire to a chassis ground, such as a metal
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
screw attached to a metal part of the vehicle's frame. Be sure
that the screw is not insulated from the chassis by a plastic
part.
3. Connect the red power wire (with in-line fuse holder) to a point
in your vehicle's fuse block that has power only when you turn the
vehicle's key to either the accessory (ACC) or START position.
This connection turns on the stereo when you turn on the ignition
or turn the key to ACC, and turns off the stereo when you turn off
the ignition. This prevents your vehicle's battery from being
drained if you leave the stereo on when you turn off the ignition.
4. Connect the yellow power/memory wire (with black transformer and
in-line fuse holder) to your vehicle battery's positive (+)
terminal or to a point in your vehicle's fuse block that provides
a continuous source of 12 volts.
This connection provides power for the stereo's components, and
continuous power for the stereo's memory when the ignition is
turned off.
5. Connect the blue/white wire to any optional equipment, designed to
run from a switched source, that you want the stereo to turn on
and off (such as a booster or a power antenna).
This wire does not provide power to the components. It simply
turns them on or off. If you do not use this wire, secure it with
a wire tie and do not let it touch metal.
Connecting an Equalizer/Booster
If you are connecting the stereo to a separate equalizer or booster, you
need additional wires (not included).
To increase the total power output from your system, connect the stereo's
LINE OUTPUT R-CH WHITE jacks and blue/white wire, if necessary, to the
equalizer or booster.
Check the equalizer/booster's owner's manual for directions.
Connecting One Pair of Speakers
If you are using only one pair of speakers, follow these steps to connect
the harness with the 14-pin connector to the speakers.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Note:
The labels on the wiring harness are for a two-pair connection. For a
one-pair connection, the labels are not correct.
1. Connect the grey wire to the right speaker's positive terminal.
This terminal is usually marked with a plus (+) sign or red mark.
2. Connect the violet wire to the right speaker's negative terminal.
This terminal might be marked with a minus (-) sign or it might
not be marked at all.
3. Connect the white wire to the left speaker's positive terminal.
4. Connect the green wire to the left speaker's negative terminal.
Connecting Two Pairs of Speakers
If you are using both front and rear speakers, follow these steps to
connect the harness with the 14-pin connector to the speakers.
1. Connect the grey wire to the right front speaker's positive
terminal. This terminal is usually marked with a plus (+) sign or
red mark.
2. Connect the grey/black wire to the right front speaker's negative
terminal. This terminal might be marked with a minus (-) sign or
it might not be marked at all.
3. Connect the white wire to the left front speaker's positive
terminal.
4. Connect the white/black wire to the left front speaker's negative
terminal.
5. Connect the violet wire to the right rear speaker's positive
terminal.
6. Connect the violet/black wire to the right rear speaker's negative
terminal.
7. Connect the green wire to the left rear speaker's positive
terminal.
8. Connect the green/black wire to the left rear speaker's negative
terminal.

Care and Maintenance
Faxback Doc. # 37647
Your Optimus High-Power in-Dash AM/FM Stereo CD Player is an example of
superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help
you care for the stereo so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the stereo dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode electronic circuits.
Handle the stereo gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the
circuit boards and case and can cause it to work improperly.
Keep the stereo away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
wear of parts.
Wipe the stereo with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the stereo.
Modifying or tampering with the stereo's internal parts can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate your stereo's warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it. If your stereo is not performing as it
should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.
CD CARE TIPS
Even though a CD is very durable, you should handle it with care. We
recommend the following precautions.
Keep the CD in its protective case or sleeve when you are not playing
it.
Handle a CD by its edges to avoid fingerprints which can prevent the
CD player's laser beam from accurately reading the CD. Your local
Radio Shack store sells a suitable CD cleaner kit.
Do not write on either side of the CD, particularly the non-label
side. (Signals are read from the non-label side.)
Keep the CD dry. A water drop can act as a lens and affect the laser
beam's focus.
If you park your vehicle in the sun, temperatures inside the vehicle
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
can easily reach levels that could damage your CDs. To prevent heat
damage, avoid leaving your CDs in your vehicle.
If a CD skips when you try to play it, it might be scratched. Your local
Radio Shack store sells a Scratch 'n Fix kit (Cat. No. 42-127) that might
help remove the scratch and stop the skip.
REPLACING A FUSE
If the stereo does not operate, you might need to replace the red power
wire's fuse. If the clock resets or stored stations are lost when the
ignition is off, you might need to replace the yellow continuous power
wire's fuse. Check both fuses.
Warning:
Before you begin, disconnect the cable from the vehicle battery's
negative (-) terminal.
(new illus)
1. Push together and twist the fuse holder's pans until they spring
apart.
2. If either fuse is blow, replace it. Use only standard 1 1/4-inch
fuses with the proper rating. The red power wire's fuse must be
1.0 amp, and the yellow continuous power wire's fuse must be 5.0
amps.
Caution:
Make sure you replace a fuse only with another fuse of the same
rating.
3. Reassemble the fuse holder by inserting the fuse and pushing
together and twisting the two parts until they latch.
4. Reconnect the cable to the vehicle battery's negative (-)
terminal.
