REMOVING TRANSPORT SCREWS Fig. 1
Remove the three transport screws from the underside of the CD changer.
Clean around the three holes on the CD changer.
Glue the supplied round stickers G over the holes to prevent dust entering the CD changer.
Store the three transport screws in the supplied plastic bag.
I DETERMINE THE MOUNTING POSITION FOR THE CD CHANGER
Possible locations are:
- in the luggage boot (trunk),
- in the glove compartment,
- under the seats or,
- behind the seats of a pick-up truck.
The installation must not interfere with the legroom or influence the safe driving of the
vehicle.
If the CD changer is to be mounted in the luggage boot, first install the extension cable (
Fig. 15) between the dashboard and the luggage boot.
• Ensure that the plug at the dashboard side correctly fits the connector of the car radio adapter
cable (or the cable already fitted to certain types of car radio).
• If you have to drill holes for the extension cable, ensure that the edges of the holes are free
from swarf. Provide the holes with a grommet or piece of tape.
• Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles and cannot be damaged by any moving
parts in the vehicle.
• Determine the mounting position for the CD changer. Ensure that the CD cartridge can easily
be inserted and removed!
• Do not mount the unit upside-down if mounted horizontally or at an angle of 45° (Fig. 3a or 3c),
or on its side if mounted vertically (Fig. 3b).
• The opening for the CD cartridge must face upwards in case of vertical mounting (Fig. 3b).

After setting the position of the shock absorbers, glue the supplied sticker F over the holes of
the setting mechanisms. Change the position of the setting mechanisms at both sides of the
CD changer.

MOUNTING
Caution: Take care not to drill into the fuel tank, the exhaust pipe system, the catalyticꢀ
converter or the cables laying behind or below any drilled holes!
MOUNTING IN THE LUGGAGE BOOT
Fix bracket A on the side of the CD changer using the washer screw C(Figs. 7a-c).
Fix the base plate with the long bolts H to the bracket using the nut D(Fig.8).
If present, lift the carpet covering the floor of the luggage boot(Fig.9).
Fix the base plate X2 to the chassis using tapping screw E.The base plate must be
fixed to a flat surface.
If there is no flat surface in the luggage boot, a wooden mounting board (approx. 10 mm
thick) under the carpet should be used instead of the base plates. (Fix the wooden
mounting board to the car using three screws). In that case fix the brackets to the board
(laying under the carpet) using screws.
Remove the nuts D. Lift up the CD changer (Fig. 10).
Lay the carpet over the base-plates (or the wooden mounting board) and cut four
smallcrosses in the carpet. Press the long bolts through.(Fig.11).
Check that the three transport screws have been removed from the underside of the
CD changer!
Mount the CD changer using the nuts D (Fig. 12).
MOUNTING IN SUSPENDED POSITION
The CD changer can also be mounted on the underside of a flat surface, e.g. the rear parcel
shelf.
Fix bracket A to the sides of the CD changer using the washer screw C(Fig.13).
Place the CD changer in the mounting position (Fig.14).
Mark positions for four mounting holes (with a felt-tip pen).
Drill holes of 3.6 mm diameter in the marked positions.
Check that the three transport screws have been removed from the underside of the
CD changer!
Hold the CD changer in place and attach it with the tapping screws E
