Congratulations on your new purchase of

a Magnadyne automotive stereo / cassette

system. The unit you chose incorporates a

microcomputer managed electronic

AM/FM stereo tuning system and FM

Optimizer along with rugged auto stop or

auto reverse cassette mechanism. The two

as a combination will provide the user

with the finest crystal clear AM and FM

stereo radio broadcast reproduction and

flawless reproduction of your personal

cassette tape library.

To insure a completely successful, trouble

free installation and trouble free long

term performance from your new Magna-

dyne radio, please take a moment to read

this manual completely to make yourself

aware of all basic installation, radio opera-

tion and memory setting procedures.

Also at this time, it would be a good idea

to write down the serial number of the

unit and the warranty card number in the

space provided. In the unlikely event that

the radio will need warranty service, you

will need these numbers to obtain the ser-

vice.

Introduction

Mechanical Installation

Most all automobiles, trucks and vans pro-

vide a mounting location somewhere in

the fascia of the dashboard or center con-

sole to install a radio/cassette system. 90%

of all vehicles produced from 1984 to pre-

sent will require some type of custom

installation bracketry or “kit” to properly

install your new Magnadyne radio. In

addition, many new or late model vehicles

have also been pre-wired (stereo prep

package) for the installation of a 2 or 4

speaker system. With this in mind, it is

suggested that before attempting the

installation of your new Magnadyne stereo

system, that you contact your local instal-

lation center and purchase the proper

installation kit and adapter harness if it is

available to insure the proper installation

of your new stereo cassette unit. Most

older vehicles will not require an installa-

tion kit but will require some “cut to fit”

procedures to install your mew Magna-

dyne stereo/ cassette unit.

Space Requirements:

To mount your new Magnadyne unit, you

will need a rectangle hole in the mount-

ing location 182mm (width) x 53mm

(height), (7

⁄8” x 2

⁄8”) and a full 6” of

unobstructed space behind the mounting

location.

M9000/M9050H/-2 08/04/00 7:57 AM Page 2

Installation Procedure

Step 1:

After obtaining the required space and

mounting hold dimensions required,

release the mounting sleeve from the unit

by pressing inward on the sides of the unit

and sliding the mounting sleeve off the

unit.

Insert the mounting sleeve into the hole

on the dashboard. Secure it by bending

the tabs inward as shown in fig 1. Select

the appropriate tab according to the

thickness of the dashboard.

Step 2:

Bring the power, ground, antenna and

speaker wires through the center of the

mounting sleeve. Make all the speaker

and power connections to the main har-

ness supplied with the unit. Refer to the

“wiring” section of this unit for proper

connection. After all the connections

have been made and are correct, plug the

harness and the antenna cable into the

mating plugs located on the rear of the

unit.

Step 3:

Turn on the ignition key and do a pre-

installation check of all the functions with

the unit out of the dashboard to make

sure that everything is operating properly

before final installation.

Step 4:

Securely attach the rear support strap pro-

vided to the rear of the unit with the fas-

teners provided. Bend the strap to allow

the unit to slide into it’s mounting sleeve.

Reach up behind the unit and grab the

strap while sliding the unit into the

mounting sleeve until it snaps into place.

Secure the end of the strap to a solid por-

tion of the dashboard structure or the fire

wall.

Removing the Unit:

In the event that the unit requires

removal from it’s mounting location,

repeat the following procedures.

A. Release the rear support strap.

B. Insert the keys provided into the slot

on both sides of the chassis until locked.v

(snapped into place)

C. Pull on the keys with equal pressure to

release and remove the unit from the

mounting sleeve.

Wiring:

Note 1: If you are replacing an already

existing factory installed radio, contact

your local car stereo installation center

for the correct wire color code for your

vehicle. In many cases, the installation

center can provide you with adapter plugs

that will connect directly to your existing

factory wire harnesses. These adapter

plugs will make the installation much easi-

er and will allow you to re-install your fac-

tory radio in the event you sell your vehi-

cle and want to keep your Magnadyne

unit.

Note 2: If you are installing a completely

new system, install all of the speakers and

antenna first, then run the wires up to the

radio mounting location and bring them

through the radio mounting hole.

Note 3: Your new Magnadyne stereo/ cas-

sette unit has been designed to operate

properly when connected to a “12 Volt

Negative Ground” electrical system. Any

other power supply may not be accept-

able. Connecting your new Magnadyne

unit to other than the specified power

source could possibly damage the unit

and will void the warranty. If your not

sure that your vehicle uses a “12 Volt Neg-

ative Ground” electrical system, contact

your local car stereo installation center

and find out before making any connec-

tions.

Red Wire: (with fuse holder)

Connect the red wire to a source of 12

volts that is controlled by the ignition key.

Use a test light or volt meter to locate a

connection point at the fuse block.

Note: If your are replacing a factory

installed radio, this wire will exist in the

wires that connected to the old unit.

Black Wire:

Connect the black wire to the frame of

the vehicle. It is strongly recommended

that the black wire be connected to a part

of the vehicles frame, floorboard or sub

structure to insure a good ground. It is

Not advised to connect the black wire to a

factory provided ground wire as it is possi-

ble that many other electrical items will

be connected to this wire and electrical

noises such as pops and clicks could be

present in your speakers. In addition,

shared grounds tend to amplify engine

noise into the unit and you will hear the

noise in your speakers.

Pink Wire: (with fuse holder)

Connect the pink wire to a constant

source of 12 volts. The battery portion of

the fuse block is a good location for this

wire. Use a test light or volt meter to

locate a connection point at the fuse

block.

Note: If your are replacing a factory

installed radio, this wire will exist in the

wires that are connected to the old unit.

Yellow Wire:

The yellow wire will provide a +12 volt

output when the stereo or cassette unit is

on. Connect the yellow wire to the power

antenna relay so it will be activated when

the unit is on.

Note: If your are replacing a factory

installed radio, this wire will exist in the

wires that are connected to the old unit if

the vehicle is equipped with a power

antenna.

Installation Procedure

a negative (-) connection terminal, there-

fore every speaker must have two wires

connected to it. To properly connect the

speaker system to your new Magnadyne

radio, you must have a + and - wire com-

ing from every speaker to connect to the

unit.

If you are connecting 2 speakers, you

should have 4 wires to connect. If you are

connecting 4 speakers, you should have 8

wires to connect.

Care and Maintenance

Fuse Replacement:

To replace the the fuse, press the holder

together and twist it slightly until the two

pieces separate. Replace the fuse with only the

specified rating located in the outside of the

fuse holder.

Tape Usage:

Your new Magnadyne stereo cassette player will

play any tape up to 90 minutes in length. Any

tape longer than 90 minutes is not recom-

mended as the added load on the tape motor

and belts could cause premature wear acceler-

ating the need for replacement. Also, 120

minute tape is thinner and prone to tangle

inside the mechanism regardless of how clean

the heads and pinch rollers are kept.

Cleaning:

The tape head should be cleaned regularly to

prevent sound deterioration. Insert a head

cleaning cassette into the mechanism follow-

ing the instruction provided with the cleaner.

If you play pre-recorded tapes (store bought)

the head should be cleaned every 10 to 15

hours of playing time. If you record your own

tapes on high quality CRO2 or metal tape, you

should clean the head about once a month.
