2.Connect the Audio Adapter's antenna plug to your sound system's antenna jack.

3.Connect the Audio Adapter's black ground wire to a chassis ground, such as a metal screw attached to a metal part of the vehicle's frame. Be sure that the screw is not insulated from the chassis by a plastic part.

4.Connect the Audio Adapter's red power wire (with inline fuse holder) to a point in your vehicle's fuse block that has power only when you turn the vehicle's key to either the accessory (ACC) or START position

This connection turns on the CD changer and its components when you turn on the ignition or turn the key to ACC, and turns off the CD changer and its components when you turn off the ignition. This prevents your vehicle's battery from being drained if you leave the CD changer on when you turn off the ignition.

5.Connect the Audio Adapter's yellow memory back up wire (with in-line fuse holder) to your vehicle battery's positive (+) terminal or to a fuse that provides a continuous source of 12 volts.

This connection provides power for the CD changer and its components, and continuous power for the CD changer's memory when the ignition is turned off.

6.Use a screwdriver to slide ISOLATOR on the side of the Audio Adapter to OFF.

7.Set 88.7/89.1 MHz on the side of the Audio Adapter to an active frequency in your area, if available. This is the frequency you tune on to your vehicle's sound system to hear the CD changer.

Note: If there is no FM broadcast on either 88.7 or 89.1 MHz in your area, you might hear static when the CD changer is not playing a CD.

Connecting The CD Changer

1.Disconnect the cable from your vehicle battery's negative (-) terminal

2.Connect the CD changer to the Audio Adapter by inserting the plug on one end of the CD changer cable into the 8-pin CD CHANGER jack on the Audio Adapter. Then insert the plug on the cable's other end into the DIN 8 PIN jack on the left side of the CD changer.
