seated in the down position. This can be done by pressing
firmly in on the unit while pushing the locking pin down with
a small screwdriver. This ensures that the unit is properly
locked and will not accidentally come out from the
dashboard.

locking pins to the "up" position (see above drawing). As
each pin is unlocked, gently pull out on the unit to make
sure it does not re-lock before unlocking the second pin.
2 Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.
