Installation
Caution
When you install this unit in your car, do not remove the 
detachable front panel.
If the detachable front panel is removed during installation, you 
might press too hard and warp the metal plate that holds it in 
place.
The main unit must be mounted within 35 degrees of the 
horizontal plane, back to front.
1
Remove the mounting sleeve from the main unit (refer to 
“Removal” on page 50
).
* If the installed mounting sleeve is loose in the dashboard, the 
pressure plates may be bent slightly to remedy the problem.
2
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 (
*1
) already attached to the 
vehicle’s chassis.
Connect each input lead coming from an amplifier or equalizer 
to the corresponding output lead coming from the left rear of 
the CDA-117. Connect all other leads of the CDA-117 according 
to details described in the CONNECTlONS section.
Note
• For the screw marked “
*2
”, use an appropriate screw for the chosen 
mounting location.
3
Slide the CDA-117 into the dashboard until it clicks. This 
ensures that the unit is properly locked and will not 
accidentally come out from the dashboard.
1
Remove the detachable front panel.
2
Insert the bracket keys into the unit, along the guides on 
either side. The unit can now be removed from the 
mounting sleeve.
3
Pull the unit out, keeping it unlocked as you do so.
