WARNING!
Be sure to disconnect the battery (-)
terminal before starting. This is to
prevent short circuits during installa-
tion.
Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative (-) lead from the vehicle’s battery.
2. Find a place in the vehicle for the video source(s).
3. Create passage holes for the power and video cables.
When drilling through metal or plastic, use grommets to
protect the cables from sharp edges that could penetrate
the insulation and cause a short circuit and device failure.
4. Connect the ground lead (black) securely to a clean metal
plate on the vehicle.
Use sand paper to remove any paint from the surface
where you attach the ground terminal.
5. Reconnect the negative (-) lead to the battery.
Monitor connections
CAUTION!
Some non-Clarion automotive DVD and VCP
source units use a similar connector for an
external IR receiver, but use different pin po-
larity than the Clarion uses. Connecting non-
Clarion source equipment to this connector
could cause equipment damage not cov-
ered by the warranty!
