A 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 connec-
tions. 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 wires one at a time from the
plug (leaving the leads as long as possible) so
that you can work with individual leads.
=
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
CO-DFX77/DFX55/DF66/DF44EUC
light.
Now turn the ignition off and then on. If the
bulb also turns off and on, that outlet is the ve-
hicle power lead.
If 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 car'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
car battery lead by grounding one lead of the
test bulb to the chassis and checking the re-
maining exposed wires from the cut radio con-
nector 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 car 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 1.5 volt 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.
If not, keep testing different lead combinations
until you have located all the speaker leads.
When you label them, include the speaker lo-
cation for each.
Antenna Motor
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
power antenna, identify the vehicle motor an-
tenna lead by connecting one bulb tester lead
to the vehicle battery lead and touching the re-
maining exposed wires from the cut radio con-
nector 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.
3 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 dia-
gram (= Page 30 or 31) shows the proper con-
nections 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 dia-
gram (= Page 30 or 31) for the proper
hookups. Follow the diagram carefully to avoid
damaging the speakers and the stereo unit.
The speakers used must be able to handle
more than 40 watts of audio power. If using an
optional audio amplifier, the speakers should
be able to handle the maximum amplifier out-
put power. Speakers with low input ratings can
be damaged. Speaker impedance should mea-
sure 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
paralle! insulated wires. If in doubt about how
. your car's speakers are wired, please consult
with your nearest professional installer,
Motor Antenna :
Connect the vehicle motor antenna lead to the
blue 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 am-
plifier, according to the instructions furnished
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 instal-
lation instructions for any equipment you will
connect to this unit.
Power
Connect the red power lead to the correct vehi-
cle radio wire or to the appropriate fuse port on
the fuse block.
If the stereo unit functions properly with all
these connections made, disconnect the wires
and proceed to the final installation.
@ Final Installation
Lead Connections
Connect all wires, making sure that each con-
nection 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 coltar.
Congratulations! After making a few final
checks, you're ready to enjoy your new auto
stereo system.
О Final Checks
. Make sure that all wires are properly con-
nected 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.
H you have difficulties, consult your nearest au-
thorized professional installer for assistance.

Troubleshooting
CO Maintenance
Your product is designed and manufactured to ensure a minimum of maintenance. Use a soft
cloth for routine exterior cleaning. Never use benzine, thinner, or other solvent.
FA When Something Doesn't Work
Check the charts (= page 33) for possible causes and solutions to any problem you might be ex-
periencing. Some simple checks or minor adjustments may eliminate the problem.
7 Product Servicing
If the suggestions in the charts don't solve the problem, we recommend that you take it to your
nearest authorized Panasonic Servicenter. The unit should be serviced only by a qualified techni-
cian.
J Replacing the Fuse
Use fuses of the same specified rating (15 amps). Using different substitutes or fuses with higher
ratings, or connecting the unit directly without a fuse, could cause fire or damage to the stereo
unit.
If the replacement fuse fails, contact your nearest Panasonic Servicenter for service.
