INSTALLATION

If your car is equipped with ISO connectors, simply

insert them in the connectors of the car radio. If

not, you can use an adaptor cable. Ensure all cables

are installed so that they cannot be damaged by

sharp edges or moving parts.

PREPARATION

Voltage and polarity: The set must be connected

to a 12V/24V car battery with negative terminal to

earth (car chassis). Installation in vehicles not

fulfilling these requirements could result in

malfunction, damage or fire.

Warning: To prevent short-circuiting,

disconnect the negative car battery terminal

until the set has been mounted and

connected (fig.1 See separate installation

card).

CONNECTOR A (fig.2)

Power supply connections

• Red wire A7 : Connect to a permanent 12V/

24V supply. This is the main power supply.

Ensure this connection can handle a current of

10A/5A.

• Yellow/red wire A4 : Connect to a switched

12V/24V supply (switched on/off by car ignition).

• Brown wire A8: Connect to earth (car

chassis).

This connection set up will enable you to make

full use of the ON/OFF LOGIC function of this set

limiting the use of the set to 1 hour after removal

of the ignition key. If this feature does not appear

to be functioning as expected you may require

an adaptor cable.

• Electronic antenna/Motorised antenna

Connect pin A5 to the power supply for an

electronic antenna or the control wire for the

relay of an automatic motorised antenna.

Do not use this connection for the supply

lead of the aerial motor!

• Pilot light

When the car headlights are switched on, the

backlight to the power key remains illuminated

(even when the radio is switched off).

Connect pin A6 to the dashboard illumination

wiring of the car.

Note : In certain car (e.g. VW Passat) the

dashboard illumination is dimmed by a digitally

modulated signal (PWM - Pulse Width

Modulation). This PWM signal can disturb the

illumination display of the car radio. In this case,

connect pin A6 to the switch signal of the low

beam headlight. Please consult your car dealers

for more information.

CONNECTOR B (fig.3)

Loudspeakers (use 4 ohm loudspeakers only)

• Do not connect any of the loudspeaker leads to

earth or directly to a booster/amplifier without high

level input or via an external fader! You can

connect the loudspeaker leads directly to an

amplifier with high level input.

• Connecting 4 loudspeakers:

Front Rear

Left+ Green [B5] White [B7]

Left- Green/black [B6] White/black [B8]

Right+ Grey [B3] Blue [B1]

Right- Grey/black [B4] Blue/black [B2]

OTHERS CONNECTIONS (fig. 7)

Wired or Steering wheel remote control

You can connect certain wired or car steering

wheel mounted remote control to this set via an

interface. Please consult your dealer for the correct

interface.

MOUNTING

METAL SLEEVE (fig.6)

• Install the metal sleeve (dimension 182x53 mm) in

the dashboard. For optimal performance of the CD

player*, the metal sleeve should be positioned

horizontally (between -10

and +30

• Fix metal sleeve into place by pressing the metal

tags outwards using a screwdriver.

CONNECTING THE RADIO (fig.7)

• Ensure the battery is disconnected.

• Insert aerial plug E in the matching socket.

Use hook (J) on back of set to secure fixing.

Use only DIN or ISO socket, not both

simultanuously.

• Insert power supply connector A into socket

A'.

• Insert loudspeaker connector B into socket B'.

MOUNTING RADIO

This radio can be properly installed either from

conventional Front Mounting or Rear Mounting,

depending on DIN/JIN opening of the car's

dashboard.

FRONT MOUNTING

• Slide the radio into the metal sleeve until the

springs at either side of the radio snap into the

openings of the sleeve (fig.8).

• Finally reconnect the negative car battery

terminal (fig.9).

REMOVING RADIO (using the two U- brackets

supplied)

• Remove the trimplate around the front panel.

• Insert both U-brackets into the holes on the

front of the set until they lock. Pull out the radio

(fig.10).

REAR MOUNTING (fig.11)

• Remove the trimplate around the front panel

and the side springs.

• Select a position where the screw holes of the

mounting bracket and the screw holes of the

radio become aligned and tighten the screws

at 2 places on each side.

•

Only use M5 screws that are not longer

than 6mm.

REPLACING FUSE (fig. 7)

• Replace with a 10A/5A blade-type fuse. The

new fuse must be of exactly this value and

type otherwise the set will not be adequately

protected. Ignoring this procedure may lead to

damage to the set, which will invalidate the

guarantee.

INTERFERENCE SUPPRESSION

• Most modern cars have sufficient interference

suppression. If you experience interference

generated by the car, consult your dealer.

to. Before calling for service, please read the

operating / installation instructions and review the

following checklists. You may find that an apparent

malfunction can easily be rectified.

If you still have to send your set for service, always

send the complete set (with detachable panel).

Do not try to open the set to service it yourself.
