Routing Speaker Wires

If you install speakers, avoid routing the speaker wires near moving parts or sharp edges.

After you route the speaker wires, replace the molding.

Removing the Shipping Screw

The shipping screw helps protect the stereo's CD player from being damaged during shipment.

Before you mount the stereo, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the shipping screw from the top of the stereo.

Note: Save the shipping screw in case you ever want to mail or ship the stereo. You can secure it to the back of the stereo with a piece of tape.

MAKING THE CONNECTIONS

The supplied harness with the 14-pin connector includes all the lead wires you need to connect the stereo to ground, power, some optional components, and speakers.

IMPORTANT: Do not cut these wires. If you cut any wire, you cannot obtain a refund or exchange on this product. However, your local RadioShack store will provide warranty service if you cut a wire and find the product is defective.

You might need additional wire, depending on your individual autosound system, to complete the connections. Your local RadioShack store carries a full line of wire and wire management accessories.
