PREPARE RADIO

Wiring

Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram on page

3. Once the wiring is complete, reconnect the battery

negative terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the

ACC lead to the power supply with a switch.

NOTE: When replacing a fuse, be sure to use correct

type and amperage to avoid damaging the radio. The

UV8 uses one 10 amp mini-ATM fuse, located in the black

filter box in-line with the main wire harness.

Final Installation

Final ISO-DIN Installation

1. Remove trim ring.

After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to

confirm operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does not

operate, recheck all wiring until problem is corrected. Once

proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch and

proceed with final mounting of the chassis.

2. Install the half-sleeve.

a. Install adapter if necessary (optional).

2. Mount factory brackets on new radio using existing

screws from old radio.

b. Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (use

only the supplied screws). Do not force the sleeve

into the opening or cause it to bend or bow.

c. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top,

bottom and sides of the mounting sleeve. With the

sleeve fully inserted into the dashboard opening,

bend as many of the tabs outward as necessary so

that the sleeve is firmly secured to the dashboard.

d. Install support strap to make the unit more stable.

3. Slide radio chassis into dash opening and secure.

4. Reinstall dash panel.

1. Connect wiring adapter to existing wiring harness.

2. Connect antenna lead.

3. Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve, making

sure it is right-side-up, until it is fully seated and the

spring clips lock it into place.

FINAL ISO-DIN INSTALLATION

NOTE: For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the

chassis must be mounted within 20° of horizontal. Make

sure the unit is mounted within this limitation.

INSTALL HALF SLEEVE

4. Attach one end of the perforated support strap

(supplied) to the screw stud on the rear of the chassis

using the hex nut provided. Fasten the other end of the

perforated strap to a secure part of the dashboard either

above or below the radio using the screw and hex nut

provided. Bend the strap to position it as necessary.

CAUTION! The rear of the radio must be supported with

the strap to prevent damage to the dashboard from the

weight of the radio or improper operation due to

vibration.

5. Replace any items you removed from the dashboard.
