 Identify all leads
The fi rst step in installation is to identify all the car wires
you will use when hooking up this unit.
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 this unit until
you have made all connections. If there are no plastic
caps on the 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 car 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 fi nd the outlet that causes
the test bulb to light.
Now turn the ignition off and then on. If the bulb also
turns off and on, that outlet is the car power lead.
If your car is not wired for an audio unit:
Go to the fuse block and fi nd the fuse port for radio
(RADIO) accessory (ACC) or ignition (IGN).
Battery lead
If this 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 or other functions.)
If your car 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 remaining exposed wires from
the cut radio connector plug.
If your car is not wired for an audio unit:
Go to the fuse block and fi nd the fuse port for the
battery, usually marked BAT.
Speakers (not supplied)
Identify the car speaker leads. There are two leads for
each speaker, usually color coded.
A handy way to identify the speaker leads and the
speaker they are connected to is to test the leads using a
1.5 V 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
