Mounting Locations
The mounting position of your source unit will have a great effect on the
performance of your in-dash Media Player. The source unit can be installed
in a wide range of operating locations. However, care should be taken to
ensure optimum performance.
Instrument Panel
Mounting the source unit in the instrument panel provides optimum
access. The source unit should be securely mounted using the “Standard
Mount” or “ISO-DIN Mount” method to ensure optimum Media Player
performance.
Center Console
Mounting the source unit in the center console also provides optimum
access. Be sure the installation does not interfere with the operation of the
gear shift or parking brake.
Glove Box
Mounting the source unit in the glove box is adequate, but does not provide
easy access. Glove box mounting should only be done if “Instrument
Panel” or ”Center Console,” mounting is not acceptable (i.e., maintaining
integrity of older vehicles with metal dashboards.)
Under Dash
Mounting the source unit under the dash is adequate, but does not provide
easy access. Under dash mounting should only be done if “Instrument
Panel,” ”Center Console” or ”Glove Box” mounting is not acceptable.
Mount the source unit off to the side of the driver’s area to reduce
interference with the parking brake, gear shift, or operating pedals.
NOTE: The source unit should have a mounting angle within ±20° from
horizontal.
Engine Compartment
Never mount the source unit in the engine compartment. Mounting the
source unit in the engine compartment will void your warranty.
Before installing, remove the top screws in the
unit. (LA-2300BT only)
Contents
Installation Considerations
The following is a list of tools needed for installation:
This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for installing
your new source unit. Pre-planning your system layout and best wiring
routes will save installation time. When deciding on the layout of your new
system, be sure that each component will be easily accessible for making
adjustments.
If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed by
a qualified Lightning Audio technician.
Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to prevent
damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.
Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:
1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before
attempting to install the unit.
2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to
beginning the installation.
3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting
your unit in place.
4. Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any high
current wires.
5. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize
signal or power loss.
6. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel
lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when
working on any vehicle.
7. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the
vehicle provides the best protection.
8. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic
grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the
firewall.
9. ALWAYS protect the battery and electrical system from damage with
proper fusing. Install the appropriate fuse holder and fuse on the +12V
power wire within 18” (45.7 cm) of the battery terminal.
10. When grounding to the chassis of the vehicle, scrape all paint from
the metal to ensure a good, clean ground connection. Grounding
connections should be as short as possible and always be connected
to metal that is welded to the main body, or chassis, of the vehicle.
Seatbelt bolts should never be used for connecting to ground.

clip. This operation will erase clock setting and stored contents.
Radio Operation
To select radio band
Pressing the BAND button briefly and repeatedly to select the desired radio band.
The sequence for the radio bands is as follows:
-->FM1-->FM2-->FM3-->AM1-->AM2-->
To search for a radio station manually or automatically

the preset memory bank of the number button for the current band.
3). To scan for each preset station or auto search for the strongest stations
A) When pressing and holding the APS button for more than 1 second, the radio
searches from the current frequency and checks the signal strength level until
the 6 strongest stations are found. Then the 6 strongest stations are preset to
the corresponding preset memory numbered bank. The auto-storage operation
9
2SHUDWLRQ
is implemented in the each selected band. When the auto-storage operation is
finished, the radio executes Preset scan.
B) When pressing the APS button or A.P button briefly, the radio searches for each
preset station in the current band and holds at that preset station for 5 seconds
while releasing mute, and then searches again.
4. To search for stations with a PTY (PROGRAMTYPE) program (RDS only)
Press and hold MODE on main unit to select one of PTY programs such as:
POP M- - NEWS-- off. While selecting POP M or NEWS, pressing one of the 6
preset buttons briefly and repeatedly can select your desired PTY program as
described in preset buttons. When turning on a PTY program, the PTY program
and PTY word is flashed on LCD. After selecting a desired PTY programand no

mode is displayed by AF segment in display.
Segment off: AF switching mode off.
Segment on: AF switching mode on, and has RDS information.
Segment flashing: AF switching mode on, but RDS information is not received yet.
When AF switching mode is selected, the radio checks the signal strength of AF all
the time. The interval of checking time of each AFs depends on the signal strength
of the current station, from a few minutes for strong station to a few seconds for
a weak station. Every time that a new AF is stronger than the current station, it
switches over to that frequency for a very short time, and the NEW FREQUENCY is
displayed for 1-2 seconds. Because the mute time of AF switching or checking time
is very short, it is almost inaudible in case of normal program. During FM mode,
when AF is on, SEEK, (SCAN), AUTO-MEMORY function can only receive and save
RDS program.
TA [TRAFFIC ANNOUNCEMENT] mode (RDS only)
When TA mode is on (TA is displayed on LCD), it will begin to seek TA station and
TA SEEK will be displayed on LCD.
When traffic announcement is transmitted:
1). If the unit is in SD, USB mode, it will switch to radio mode temporarily.
2). If volume level is below 20, volume level is raised to 20, and returns to its
previous mode and volume level when the traffic announcement is over. If volume
is adjusted during traffic announcement, only the traffic announcement volume is
valid.
* When TA mode is on, SEEK, AUTO MEMORY function can be received or saved
only when traffic program identification code has been received.
