Welcome!
What you're holding in your hands is no ordinary
owner's manual. We've tried to make the instructions in
this book clear and easy to follow.
For your Jensen stereo to work right, it must be in-
stalled correctly. This manual will show you how to
install your new stereo like a pro. It's a good idea to
read all of these instructions before you begin the
installation. Most installations are straightforward and
can be handled by a do-it-yourselfer with the right
tools, patience, and the ability to follow instructions.
But, do-it-yourself installation isn't for everyone. If you
still don't feel confident after reading this book, con-
sider turning the installation job over to someone better
suited to it.
Warranty Service
If your Jensen stereo should ever require service, you
will need to have the original dated receipt. If you ever
need to return the unit for any reason, always include
the receipt with the product.
Technical Assistance
For technical assistance with the installation of the
CD615X, call 1-800-323-0221.
