CAR ANTENNA INPUT

Locate your existing car radio antenna cable. This is
normally a black cable about as thick as a pencil and
will be plugged into a socket on the rear of your car
radio. Unplug this antenna lead and plug it into the
mating female socket on the FM modulator.
IMPORTANT - Some Import cars have a special dual
antenna called “DIVERSITY ANTENNA”. If your car
has this type of antenna system, you will find the
antenna cable will not fit the socket on the FM modu-
lator. Use of the ACC-56 with “DIVERSITY ANTENNA"
is not recommended. You may also find some late
model GM cars have an antenna plug that is too small
to mate

with the FM modulator. If this is found, call

Audiovox’s Toll-Free Assistance for a special adapter
(1-800-645-4994). This adapter can also be purchased
at any car stereo installation center.

RADIO ANTENNA OUTPUT

Attached to the FM modulator is a male antenna plug.
Simply plug this into the socket on the car radio from
which you just removed the car antenna cable.

REMOTE CONTROL CABLE

Attached to your remote control is a cable that plugs
into the remaining 5-pin socket on the end of the FM
modulator. Position the remote control near the area
you will permanently mount it and route the cable to the
FM modulator. Plug the cable into the FM modulator.

WIRING THE FM MODULATOR (con't.)

BLACK GROUND WIRE

The 3 foot Ground wire (black) attached to the FM
modulator must be secured to a grounded metal part
of the car’s chassis. If you cannot find an existing bolt
or screw to fasten it to, you must drill a hole in the
metal and secure it with a screw. To insure a good
ground, remove any paint or grease where the wire
will connect.
