Mounting the Stereo
NOTICE
Do not use the stereo as a template when drilling the mounting holes because this may damage the display and
void the warranty. You must only use the included template to correctly drill the mounting holes.
Be careful when cutting the hole to mount the stereo. There is only a small amount of clearance between the
case and the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could compromise the stability of the stereo after it
is mounted.
Do not apply grease or lubricant to the screws when fastening the stereo to the mounting surface. Grease or
other lubricants can cause damage to the stereo housing.
Before you can mount the stereo in a new location on the mounting surface, you must select a location in
accordance with the mounting considerations.
1Adhere the template to the mounting surface.
2Drill a hole inside the corner of the dashed line on the template.
3Cut the mounting surface along the inside of the dashed line on the template.
4Ensure the mounting holes on the stereo line up with the pilot holes on the template.
5Using an appropriately sized drill bit for the mounting surface and screw type, drill the pilot holes.
6Remove the template from the mounting surface.
7Complete an action:
• If you are installing the stereo in a dry location, place the included mounting gasket on the back of the
stereo.
• If you are installing the stereo in a location that is exposed to water, apply silicone-based marine sealant
on the mounting surface around the cutout.
NOTICE
Do not install the included mounting gasket if you applied sealant to the mounting surface. Using sealant
and the mounting gasket may reduce water resistance.
8If you will not have access to the back of the stereo after installation, make the necessary wiring
connections.
9Secure the stereo to the mounting surface using the included screws .
You should hand-tighten the screws when securing the stereo to the mounting surface to avoid over
tightening them.
10 Snap the screw covers in place .
Connections
The stereo must be connected to power, to speakers, and to media input sources to function correctly. You
should carefully plan the layout of the stereo, speakers, and your input sources before making any connections.
