Hi-Pwr Digital Cassette (120-1994) Installing/Removing Faxback Doc. # 6937 ROUTING SPEAKER WIRE If you install speakers, avoid routing the speaker wires near moving parts or sharp edges. You can usually route them along the wiring channel beneath the vehicle door's step plates by carefully removing the molding that holds the carpet in place. After you route the speaker wires, replace the molding. MOUNTING THE STEREO If your vehicle does not have a prepared opening for a flat face (DIN E) component, you must use an in-dash installation kit. Installation kits for many vehicle models are available at your local Radio Shack store. If you require an in-dash installation kit, follow the instructions supplied with it to mount the sleeve. If you are not using an in-dash installation kit, follow these steps to mount the stereo. 1. Disconnect the cable from the vehicle battery's negative (-) terminal. 2. Temporarily disconnect the wiring harness and antenna. 3. Insert the sleeve into the dash opening. Secure the mounting sleeve by bending the locking tabs outward with a screwdriver. 4. Route the wiring harness and the antenna wire through the sleeve from under the dash. 5. Reconnect the wiring harness and antenna. 6. Slide the stereo into the sleeve until it locks into place. Note: To further secure the stereo, attach the supplied hex bolt to the back of the stereo. Attach one end of the supplied metal strap to the bolt on the back of the stereo. Attach the other end of the strap to an existing bolt on a solid metal part of the vehicle. This strap also helps ensure proper electrical grounding of the stereo. 7. Reconnect your vehicle battery's negative cable. REMOVING THE STEREO Follow these steps to remove the stereo from the dash. 1. Disconnect the negative (-) cable from your vehicle's battery. 2. If you used the metal strap, release it. 3. Push the sleeve keys into the slots on the right and left of the front panel until you hear a click. 4. Pull the keys out and down to remove the stereo. 5. Disconnect the wiring harness and the antenna cable. 6. Remove the stereo from the mounting sleeve. 7. Reconnect the battery's negative (-) cable. (smm 03/04/94)
