INSTALLATION

MOUNTING LOCATIONS

The mounting position of your source unit will have a great effect on the performance of your in-dash CD Player. The source unit can be installed in a wide range of operating locations. However, care should be taken to ensure optimum performance.

Engine Compartment

Mounting the source unit in the engine compartment will void your warranty. Doing so will not only cause severe damage to your new source unit, but will immediately pro- mote you to “customer of the month” in our technical support department.

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 Mount” method to ensure optimum CD Player performance.

Center Console

Mounting the source unit in the center console provides optimum access. Be sure the installation does not interfere with the operation of the gear shift or parking brake. The source unit should have a mounting angle within ±20° from horizontal.

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 dash- boards.) The source unit should be mounted within ±20° from horizontal.

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 dri- ver's area to reduce interference with the parking brake, gear shift, or operating pedals. The source unit should be mounted within ±20° from horizontal.

WIRING THE SYSTEM

NOTE: The installation sheet that came with your unit has a diagram to help you con- nect your system.

!CAUTION: If you do not feel comfortable with wiring your new source unit, please see your local Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer for installation.

!CAUTION: Before installation, disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal to pre- vent damage to the unit, fire and/or possible injury.

1.Install the 16-Pin Power Harness by connecting the corresponding wires to the electrical and audio system. Solder and heat shrink all connections for a reliable installation. For each connection, cut a 1" piece of heat shrink tubing and slide over one of the wires. Strip each wire 3/8" then twist together and solder. Slide the tubing over the connection and shrink the tubing with a hot air gun until no bare wire is exposed.
