Li Identify All Leads
The first step in installation is to identify all the vehicle wires you'll use when hooking up your sound system.
As you identify each wire,we suggest that you label it using masking tape and a permanent marker. This will help avoid
confusion when making connections later.
Note: Do not connect the power connector to the stereo unit until you have made all connections. If there are no plastic
caps on the stereo hooking wires, insulate all exposed leads with electrical tape until you are ready to use them. Identify
the leads in the following order.
Power Lead
If your vehicle has a radio or is pre-wired for one:
Cut the connector plug off (leaving the leads as long as possible) so that you can work with individual
is
Turn the ignition on to the accessory position,and ground one lead of the test bulb to the chassis.
Touch the other lead of the test bulb to each of the exposed wires from the cut radio connector plug. Touch one
wire at a time until you find the outlet that causes the test bulb to light.
Now turn the ignition off and then on. If the bulb also turns off and on, that outlet is the vehicle power
lead.
H your vehicle is not wired for an audio unit: Go to the fuse block and find the fuse port for radio (RADIO),
accessory (ACC), or ignition (IGN).
Battery Lead
If your stereo unit has a yellow lead, you will need to locate the vehicle's battery lead. Otherwise you may ignore
this procedure. (The yellow battery lead provides continuous power to maintain a clock, memory
storage, or other function.) .
If your vehicle has a radio or is pre-wired for one:With the ignition and headlights off, identify the vehicle battery
lead by grounding one lead of the test bulb to the chassis and checking the remaining exposed wires from the
cut radio connector plug.
If your vehicle is not wired for an audio unit:GO to the fuse block and find the.fuse port for the battery,
usually marked BAT. .
Speakers
Identify the vehicle speaker leads. There will be two leads for each speaker,usually color coded.
A handy way to identify the speaker leads and the speaker they connect with is to test the leads using a
1.5volt AA battery as follows.
Hold one lead against one pole of the battery and stroke the other lead across the other pole.You will hear a
scraping sound in a speaker if you are holding a speaker lead.!f not, keep testing different lead combinations until
you have located all the speaker leads. When you label them,include the speaker location for each.
Antenna Motor
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic power antenna,identify the vehicle motor antenna lead by
connecting one bulb tester lead to the vehicle battery lead and touching the remaining exposed wires from the
cut radio connector plug one at a time .You will hear the antenna motor activate when you touch the correct wire.
Antenna
The antenna lead is a thick, black wire with a metal plug at the end.
1 Connect-All Leads
Now that you have identified all the wires in the vehicle, you're ready to begin connecting them to the stereo
unit wires. The connection diagram on Installation Guide shows the proper connections and color coding of
the leads.
We strongly recommend that you test the unit before making a final installation.
You can set the unit on the floor and make temporary connections to test the unit. Use electrical tape to cover all
exposed wires.
IMPORTANT : Connect the red power lead last, after you have made and insulated all other connections.
Ground
Connect the black ground lead of the power connector to the metal vehicle chassis.
Speakers
Connect the speaker wires. See the wiring diagram below for the proper hookups. Follow the diagram carefully to avoid
damaging the speakers and the stereo unit.
The speaker used must be able to handle more than 25 watts of audio power. Speakers with low input ratings can
be damaged.
Speaker impedance should measure 4-8 ohms, which is typically marked on most speakers. Lower or higher impedance
speakers will affect output and can cause both speaker and stereo unit damage.
CAUTION: Never ground the speaker cords. For example, do not use a chassis ground system or a three-wire
speaker common system. Each speaker must be connected separately using parallel insulated wires. If in doubt about
how your vehicle's speakers are wired, please consult with your nearest professional installer.

Motor Antenna
Connect the vehicle motor antenna lead to the blus motor antenna relay control lead.
Battery
Connect the yellow battery lead to the correct radio wire or to the battery fuse port on the fuse block.
Antenna
Connect the antenna by plugging the antenna lead into the antenna receptacle.
Equipment :
Connect any optional equipment such as amplifier,according to the instructions fumished with the equipment. Keep about 12
inches (30 cm) of distance between the speaker cords/amplifier unit and the antenna/antenna extension cord. Read the operating
and installation instructions for any equipment you will connect to this unit.
Power
Connect the red power lead to the correct vehicle radio wire or to the appropriate fuse port on the fuse block.
If the stereo unit functions property with all these connections made, disconnect the wires and proceed to the final installation.
[1 Final Checks
1.Make sure that all wires are property connected and insulated.
2.Make sure that the stereo unit is securely held in the mounting collar.
3.Turn on the ignition to check the unit for proper operation.
If you have difficulties, consult your nearest authorized professional installer for assistance.
[ Final Installation
Lead connections
Connect all wires, making sure that each connection is insulated and secure. Bundle all loose wires and fasten them with tape so they
won't fall down later. Now insert the stereo unit into the mounting collar.
Congratulations! After making a few final checks, you're ready to enjoy your new auto stereo system.
