Installation
5. Insert the supplied R (right) and L (left)
keys as far as they will go (with the
notches facing up) into the appropriate
slots at the middle left and right sides of
the stereo. Lift up slightly on the keys,
then use the keys as handles to pull the
stereo part way out of the dash. Grasp
the front portion of the stereo with your
hand to pull it out the rest of the way.
6. Disconnect the 14-wire harness from the
stereo's 14-pin wiring socket, then dis-
connect the antenna.
7. Reconnect your vehicle battery's nega-
tive (–) cable.
USING THE DETACHABLE
CONTROL PANEL
The stereo's control panel must be in place
for the stereo to operate. When you remove
it, the display turns off, the stereo cannot be
used, and a red indicator flashes. This is a
simple but effective security measure.
Any stored stations remain in memory when
you remove the control panel.
Installing the Control Panel
Caution:
Avoid pushing on the display or
pressing any buttons while installing the con-
trol panel.
1. Insert the right edge of the control panel
into the right edge of the stereo’s front
recess. Make sure the tabs in the recess
fit into the slots near the edge of the
control panel.
2. Gently press the left edge of the control
panel into the recess until you hear a
click.
Removing the Control Panel
1. Press REL until you hear a click. The
control panel swings out.
2. Remove the control panel, then store it
in the supplied carrying case.
Caution:
To keep the metal connecting pins
clean, do not touch the connecting pins in the
stereo’s front recess or the back of the con-
trol panel.
