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 compo- nents, 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 defec- tive.

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

Cautions:

For added safety and to protect your stereo, disconnect the cable from your vehicle battery’s nega- tive (–) terminal before you begin.

Be sure your speakers can handle 64 watts of power (16 watts per channel). Each speaker must have an impedance of at least 4 ohms. Your local RadioShack store carries a full line of speak- ers.

You must connect the GROUND, +12V TO IGNITION, and +12V TO BATTERY wires first, then make all other connections as described in the following sections before you plug the harness with the 14- pin connector into the stereo. If you do not make connections in the order shown, damage to the stereo is possible if any wire con- nections are made incorrectly.

You must connect a separate wire to each speaker terminal as described in the following proce- dure. Do not use a common wire or chassis ground for any speaker connection.
