Power Cable Installation Procedure

Begin the power cable installation as follows:
1. Determine a routing plan, keeping in mind where the radio is to be mounted.
CAUTION: Improper handling with the power cable may cause shorting to ground. Ensure
!
that during radio installation the power cable fuse is removed.
2. Locate an existing hole with grommet in the vehicle fire wall, or use a 9.5 mm (3/8-inch) bit to
drill an access hole in the fire wall. Install a grommet with a 5 mm (3/16-inch) inside diameter
into the hole to protect the power cable.
CAUTION: Be very careful not to damage existing wires.
!
3. From inside the vehicle, feed the red and black leads (without the lugs attached) through the
access hole and into the engine compartment. (See Figure 1-1 Power Cable Routing into the
Engine Compartment)
