RECAUTIONS:

Read all wiring precautions. If you are not sure of the connections, contact your authorized Clarion dealer.

1.Disconnect the negative (-) lead from the vehicle’s battery before making any connections.

2.When creating passage holes through metal or plastic, use grommets to

Eliminate any sharp edges created during drilling. This will protect power or video wires from nicks or damaged causing a possible short circle or failure.

3.When connecting the ground lead, fasten the ground lead (black) securely to a clean metal plate on the vehicle. Use sandpaper to remote any paint from the surface where the ground terminal is attached.
