Before You Begin Installation - Jensen CD3010X Operation Manual

Welcome!
For your Jensen stereo to work right, it must be installed 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 and patience. But, do-it-yourself installation isn't for everyone. You may want to turn the installation
job over to an experienced installer.
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.
