Jensen VM9225BT Installation Manual page 3

Installation Using Half-Sleeve
1. Install half-sleeve in the dashboard.
a. Install adapter if necessary (optional).
b. Install half-sleeve into adapter or dashboard (use only
the supplied screws). Do not force the sleeve into the
opening or cause it to bend or bow.
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power
supply with proper grounding.
c. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top, bottom and
sides of the mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully inserted
into the dashboard opening, bend as many of the tabs
outward as necessary so that the sleeve is firmly secured
to the dashboard.
2. Use the M5 x 6 screws (provided) to install the mounting
brackets to each side of the radio using the holes indicated
in the diagram. DO NOT USE OTHER SCREWS.
3. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the
wiring can be brought through the mounting sleeve.
4. Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram. Once
the wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative
terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the ACC lead
to the power supply with a switch.
CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the car wiring.
5. After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on
to confirm operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does
not operate, recheck all wiring until problem is corrected.
Once proper operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch
and proceed with final mounting of the chassis.
a. Connect wiring adapter to existing wiring harness.
b. Connect antenna lead.
c. Carefully slide the radio into the half-sleeve, making sure
it is right-side-up. Use the supplied screws to attach the
radio to the half sleeve.
Using the Cosmetic Trim Ring
Two cosmetic trim rings are packaged with the head unit for
installation flexibility. This unit will fit into most import dashes
with little or no modification to the dash board/cavity. Some
US domestic vehicle dashes will accept a Double-DIN chassis,
but there is usually a small gap between the radio and dash piece
after installation is complete. In this case, use the appropriate
trim ring to conceal any gaps that may be present.
NOTE: For proper operation of the CD/DVD player, the chassis
must be mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make sure the unit
is mounted within this limitation.
