Installation Preparation
This chapter provides information
required
for the installation of the Neo iON, it must be read by all users.
Thank you for purchasing the Neo iON. Since the Neo iON works in many different vehicles the following steps must be taken to ensure the iON is set up correctly for the vehicle it is being installed in.
Before Installation
To prevent damage to your vehicle and the iON take the following precautions.
1.
Turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to installation.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is equipped with an on-board drive or navigation computer, do not disconnect the battery cable. If the battery cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these conditions, use extra caution to avoid causing a short circuit during installation.
If your radio has a security code make sure you know the code and how to enter it prior to removing the battery cable. The radio will require this code to operate when the battery terminal is reconnected.
2.
Do not install the unit in the following locations:
A.
Locations exposed to direct sunlight
B.
Locations where hot air flows from the cars heater

The dip switches can be found on the side of the black plastic box which connects to the iON. Switches are in the
“ON”
position when they are switched

*Important Note:
Some vehicle production runs do not have a cable plugged into the 16pin pin connector on the back of the headunit. If you are installing in this type of vehicle you can use another Neo cable (For example the Honda cable) and shave the plastic off of the white 22pin connector and remove the pins inside. These pins can then be inserted into the holes on the back of the vehicles stereo. Call technical support if you need further assistance with this option.
