Slide the iDA-X303/iDA-X301/iDA-X301RR into the
dashboard. When the unit is in place, make sure
the locking pins are fully 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. Install the
detachable front panel.
Removal
1. Remove the detachable front panel.
2. Use a small screwdriver (or similar tool) to push the
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.
Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.
