Connect each input lead coming from an amplifier or
equalizer to the corresponding output lead coming
from the left rear of the CDM-7871. Connect all other
leads of the CDM-7871 according to details
described in the CONNECTlONS section.

Lock Pin

Slide the CDM-7871 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.

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.
