Installation
• The main unit must be mounted within 35 degrees of the horizontal
plane, back to front.
* If the installed mounting sleeve is loose in the main unit, the pressure
plates may be widened slightly to remedy the problem.
• For the screw marked “*
2
”, use an appropriate screw for the chosen
mounting location.
Removal
1. Remove the detachable front panel.
2. Insert the bracket keys into the unit, along the guides
on either side. The unit can now be removed from the
mounting sleeve.
3. Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.
Caution
Do not block the unit’s 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.

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 iDA-X100. Connect all other
leads of the iDA-X100 according to details described
in the CONNECTIONS section.
3
Slide the iDA-X100 into the dashboard until it clicks.
This ensures that the unit is properly locked and will
not accidentally come out from the dashboard.
