INSTALLATION
Before you mount the CD changer and
its components, test it by temporarily
making all the required connections.
Cautions:
• For added safety and to protect your
CD changer and sound system, dis-
connect the cable from your vehicle
battery’s negative (–) terminal
before you begin.
• You must make all other connec-
tions before you reconnect the cable
to your vehicle’s battery. If you do
not make the connections in the
order shown, the CD changer and
sound system might be damaged if
any wire connections are made
incorrectly.
CONNECTING THE AUDIO 
ADAPTER
The supplied Audio Adapter includes all
of the lead wires for connecting to your
vehicle’s, ground, power and sound sys-
tem. There are two ways to connect the
Audio Adapter to the CD changer and
the vehicle’s sound system.
Using RCA Jacks
If your vehicle’s sound system has a pair
of RCA input jacks (either on the stereo
head unit or the power amplifier), you
can connect the CD changer to the
sound system’s output jacks.
1. Use a screwdriver to slide 
ISOLA-
TOR 
on the side of the Audio
Adapter to 
ON
.
2. Connect the Audio Adapter’s 
RCA
output jack to the sound system’s
RCA input jack by using a cable of
the proper length for your connec-
tion with 2 RCA plugs at each end.
Your local RadioShack store carries
a wide range of RCA cables. 
Using a Vehicle’s Antenna
If your vehicle’s sound system does not
have RCA input jacks, use the Audio
Adapter to convert the CD changer’s
sound to an FM signal, which you can
hear by tuning your vehicle’s radio to the
corresponding FM frequency. 
1. Disconnect your vehicle’s antenna
from your vehicle’s sound system,
then connect the antenna to the
Audio Adapter’s large black antenna
connector.
2. Connect the Audio Adapter’s
antenna plug to your sound sys-
tem’s antenna jack.
