Welcome!
What you're holding in your hands is no ordinary owner's
manual. We've tried to make the instructions in this book
clear and easy to follow.
For your Jensen stereo to work right, it must be installed
correctly. This manual will show you how to install your new
stereo like a pro. It's a good idea to read all of these
instructions before you begin the installation. Most
installations are straightforward and can be handled by a
do-it-yourselfer with the right tools, patience, and the ability
to follow instructions. But, do-it-yourself installation isn't for
everyone. If you still don't feel confident after reading this
book, consider turning the installation job over to someone
better suited to it.
Warranty Service
If your Jensen stereo should ever require service, you will
need to have the original dated receipt. If you ever need to
return the unit for any reason, always include the receipt
with the product.
Technical Assistance
For technical assistance with the installation of the
CD510K, call 1-800-323-0221.
