tion key. Use a test light or volt meter  
to locate a connection point at the  
fuse block.  
A. Release the rear support strap.  
B. Insert the keys provided into the  
slot on both sides of the chassis  
until locked. (snapped into place)  
Black Wire:  
Connect the black wire to the frame  
of the vehicle. It is strongly recom-  
mended that the black wire be con-  
nected 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 possible  
that many other electrical items will  
be connected to this wire and electri-  
cal 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.  
C. Pull on the keys with equal pres-  
sure to release and remove the  
unit from the mounting sleeve.  
D. Disconnect the wire harness and  
the antenna.  
Wiring:  
Note 1: If you are installing a com-  
pletely 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.  
Orange Wire: (with fuse holder)  
Note 2: Your new AM/FM unit has  
been designed to operate properly  
when connected to a “12 Volt  
Negative Ground” electrical system.  
Any other power supply may not be  
acceptable. Connecting your new  
unit to other than the specified  
power source will damage the unit  
and will void the warranty. If you are  
not sure that your vehicle uses a “12  
Volt Negative Ground” electrical sys-  
tem, contact your local car stereo  
installation center and find out  
before making any connections.  
Connect the orange wire to a con-  
stant 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.
