6. REMOVING THE MAIN UNIT

This unit is designed for fixed installation in the dashboard.

If the vehicle is equipped with a factory-installed radio, install the main unit with the parts and screws marked (∗ ). (Figure 8)

If the vehicle is not equipped with a factory-in- stalled radio, obtain an installation kit to install the main unit in the following procedure.

1.Remove the screws from both side of the main unit. Then, at either side, lift the leaf spring until the engaging claws are released from the holes, and slide the spring to the direction of arrow to remove it. Repeat the

same for the other side to remove the springs from the both sides. (Figure 7)

2.Secure the mounting brackets to the chassis as shown in Figure 8. Holes are pre-tapped for TOYOTA and NISSAN vehicles; modifi- cation, such as drilling new holes, of the mounting brackets may be required for other models.

3.Wire as shown in Section 8.

4.Secure the unit in the dashboard, and then reassemble the dashboard and the centre panel.

1.When the rear of the main unit has been se- cured with the method shown in Figure 6 unfasten the special screw.

2.Remove the outer escutcheon.

3.Insert the hook plate between the spring and the universal mounting bracket, fit tab B of

the spring into hole A of the hook plate, then pull the main unit out by the hook plate. (Insert both the right and left edges of the hook plate.) (Figure 9)

Note: Keep the hook plate. You cannot remove the main unit without disengaging the hook plate.

Note 1: In some cases, the centre panel may re- quire some modification (trimming, filling, etc.).

Note 2: If a hook on the installation bracket inter- feres with the unit, bend and flatten it with a nipper or a similar tool.
