Installation and Connections

Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the

following and “Operating Instructions” of this manual
thoroughly for proper use.

ACaution

A Warning

HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS.

The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical

skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer
where you purchased this product to have the work done.

USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM

SECURELY.

MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.

Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product
damage.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.

(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may
result in fire, etc.

Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than
designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not
securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become
loose resulting in hazards or product failure.

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE

NEGATIVE BAHERY TERMINAL.

Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to

electrical shorts.

ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR

PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.

Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat
rails) or shaq> or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and

damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use

a rubber grommet to prevent the wire's insulation from being cut by
the metal edge of the hole.

DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN

SURROUNDING OBJECTS.

Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to
prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or

hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake
pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR

DUST.

Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of
moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may
result in product failure.

Precautions

DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.

Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other
equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of
the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.

When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions
so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or

electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.

DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR STEERING

SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.

Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other

safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for
installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable

control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.

• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (-) battery post before

installing your CDE-100. This will reduce any chance of damage

to the unit in case of a short-circuit.

• Be sure to connect the colour coded leads according to the

diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to
malfunction or damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.
