2.2.3.3 To Remove the radio from the frame
1. Push the two demounting tools through the openings in the frame until the two springs
release the radio.
2. Slide out the radio.
NOTE: The fixing tabs should be checked for tightness each time the radio is removed. The tabs are
easily tightened by twisting a large flat-head screwdriver in the slot behind the tabs.
NOTE: The frame is not designed for regular mounting and demounting.
2.3 Power Cable
Route the red radio power cable from the radio to the vehicle’s battery compartment, using accepted
industry methods and standards. Be sure to grommet the firewall hole to protect the cable. Remove
the 15-Amp (part number 6580283E06) or 20-Amp (part number 6580283E07) fuse from the
fuseholder and connect the red lead of the radio power cable to the positive battery terminal using
the hardware provided as shown in Figure 2-8. Connect the black lead to a convenient solid chassis
ground point. DO NOT connect the black lead directly to the battery’s negative terminal.
