When your vehicle has the Bracket, mount the long
hex bolt onto the rear panel of the CDE-W203Ri and
put the Rubber Cap on the hex bolt. If your vehicle
does not have the Mounting Support, reinforce the
head unit with the metal mounting strap (not
supplied). Secure the ground lead of the unit to a
clean metal spot using a screw (*
to the vehicle's chassis. Connect all the leads of the
CDE-W203Ri according to details described in the
CONNECTIONS section.

• For the screw marked "* ", use an appropriate screw for the chosen
mounting location.

clicks. This ensures that the unit is properly locked
and will not accidentally come out from the
dashboard.
