vents your vehicle's battery from
being drained if you leave the
stereo on when you turn off the
ignition.

ory wire (with in-line fuse holder)
to your vehicle battery's positive

This connection provides power
for the stereo's
(such as the clock), and continu-
ous power for the stereo's mem-
ory when the ignition is turned off.

any optional equipment, de-
signed to run from a switched
source, that you want the stereo
to turn on and off (such as a
booster or a power antenna).
This wire does not provide
power to the components. It sim-
ply turns them on or off. If you do
not use this wire, secure it with a
wire tie and do not let it touch
metal.
