Installation
Caution
When you install this unit in your car, do not remove the
detachable front panel.
If the detachable front panel is removed during installation, you
might press too hard and warp the metal plate that holds it in
place.
The main unit must be mounted within 35 degrees of the
horizontal plane, back to front.
1
Remove the mounting sleeve from the main unit (refer to
“Removal” on page 40).
* If the installed mounting sleeve is loose in the dashboard, the
pressure plates may be bent slightly to remedy the problem.
2
Reinforce the head unit with the metal mounting strap
(not supplied). Secure the ground lead of the unit to a
clean metal spot using a screw (
*1
) already attached to the
vehicle’s chassis.
Connect each input lead coming from an amplifier or equalizer
to the corresponding output lead coming from the left rear of
the CDE-124SXM/CDE-123/CDE-122. Connect all other leads of
the CDE-124SXM/CDE-123/CDE-122 according to details
described in the CONNECTlONS section.
Note
• For the screw marked “
*2
”, use an appropriate screw for the chosen
mounting location.
3
Slide the CDE-124SXM/CDE-123/CDE-122 into the
dashboard until it clicks. This ensures that the unit is
properly locked and will not accidentally come out from
the dashboard.
