5 Squeeze the covers together bending the wires in the strain-relief features. You may need a pair
of pliers to seat the assembly covers.
6 Once the covers are fully seated, fasten them with the cover screws. Tighten the screws firmly
but do not over-tighten them. Be sure that none of the wires are pinched.
7 Reattach the accessory connector assembly to the back of the radio and fasten it by 
finger-tightening the jackscrews to prevent any loosening.
