Installation

The main unit must be mounted within 35 degrees of the horizontal

plane, back to front.

Removal

1. Remove the detachable front panel.

2. Use a small screwdriver (or similar tool) to push the

locking pins to the “up” position (see above drawing).
As each pin is unlocked, gently pull out on the unit to
make sure it does not re-lock before unlocking the
second pin.

3. Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.

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.

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.

* If the installed mounting sleeve is loose in the dashboard, the

pressure plates may be bent slightly to remedy the problem.

Remove the mounting sleeve from the main unit (see
“Removal” on page 44
). Slide the mounting sleeve
into the dashboard and fix it with the metal shackles.

When your vehicle has the Bracket, mount the long
hex bolt onto the rear panel of the CDA-9886R 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-9886R
according to details described in the
CONNECTIONS section.

For the screw *, provide a proper screw to the chassis installing

location.

3

Slide the CDA-9886R 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.
