DC Power
Connection
To connect a 12V negative-ground vehicular battery.
1.
Lead the power connector on the DC Power Cable to the DC connector on the
radio, but do not attach it. Lead the three heavy wires (red, green and black) to the
12V battery, threading them through the access holes as required.
The wires must be as short as possible. Cut off any excess wire.
2.
Thread the red and green wires from the power connector through the two fuse
holder caps; separate the fuse clips and solder or crimp them to the wires.
3.
Install the 30A fuse in the fuse holder on the red wire, and the 7.5A fuse in the
fuse holder on the green wire.
4.
Crimp or solder the supplied lugs to the red, green, and black wires.
5.
Connect the lugs on both red and green cables to the battery’s positive terminal.
Then connect the lug on the black wire to the battery’s negative terminal.

Connect the grounding (black wire) to the vehicle chassis, as close as
possible to the radio.
In front installation, add one ferrite (supplied with the installation radio
kit) on the DC cable as close as possible to the radio.
In trunk mount installation, add one ferrite (supplied with installation
kit) on the DC cable as close as possible to the radio and one ferrite on the
control cable, halfway between the control head and the radio.
