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.
Caution
Do not block the unit’s fan or heat sink, thus
preventing air circulation. If blocked, heat will
accumulate inside the unit and may cause a fire.
1
Slide mounting sleeve from main unit (see
"Removal" on this page). Slide the mounting
sleeve into the dashboard.
2
When your vehicle has the Bracket, mount the
long hex bolt onto the rear panel of the CDA-
7878R and put the Rubber Cap on the hex bolt.
If your vehicle does not have the Mounting
Support, reinforce the head unit with the metal
mounting strap (not supplied). Connect all the
leads of the CDA-7878R according to details
described in the CONNECTION section.

Slide the CDA-7878R into the dashboard. When
the unit is in place, make sure the locking pins are
fully seated in the down position. This can be done
by pressing firmly in on the unit while pushing the
locking pin down with a small screwdriver. This
ensures that the unit is properly locked and will not
accidentally come out from the dashboard. Install
the Detachable Front Panel.
