battery cable prior to installation.

NOTE: If the VME9020TS is to be installed in a car equipped with an on-board drive

or navigation computer, do not disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnec-

ted, the computer memory may be lost. Under these conditions, use extra caution

during installation to avoid causing a short circuit.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE TOUCH SCREEN MONITOR

(SCREEN CAL)

To offer the best performance it is necessary to do the following adjustment direct after

the installation into the customers car:

Within the System Setup you will find the Screen Calibration.

Once you select this choice then you will get a green cross at the left upper area at the

screen. Please push the middle of the cross for 1 second and then the green cross appe-

ars in the lower right corner. Please push once more for 1 second the middle of the

cross. Once you did this then the unit switch back to the System Setup and the adjust-

ment is finished.

INSTALLATION

This unit is designed to fit into a 2.0 DIN dashboard opening, found in many imported

cars. The unit has threaded holes in the chassis side panels which may be used with the

original factory mounting brackets of some Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Hyundai,

Honda... vehicles to mount the radio to the dashboard. Please consult with your local

car stereo specialty shop for assistance on this type of installation.

1. Remove the existing factory radio from the dashboard or center console mounting.

Save all hardware and brackets as they will be used to mount the new radio.

2. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing radio and

attach them to the new radio.

CAUTION: Do not exceed M5 X 6 MM screw size. Longer screws may

touch and damage components inside the chassis.

SUBJECT TO TECHNICAL CHANGE

3. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can be brought

through the mounting sleeve. Follow the wiring diagram carefully and make certain all

connections are secure and insulated with wire nuts or electrical tape. After completing

the wiring connections, plug the ISO connectors into the mating sockets on the rear of

the chassis. Turn the unit on to confirm operation (vehicle ignition switch must be “on”).

If the unit does not operate, re-check all wiring until the problem is corrected.

4. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console using the rever-

se procedure in step 1.

CAUTION: For proper operation of the CD player, the chassis must be

mounted within 30° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted wit-

hin this limitation.

NOTE: It is the end-users responsibility to install and operate this unit

in a manner in accordance with local, state and federal laws. The

PARKING BRAKE wire MUST BE CONNECTED as directed in the manu-

al.

CAUTION: Do not block the cooling fan exit. If blocked, the unit may

overheat and become damaged.

Using the iAUX3 External AV Connector

The iAUX3 allows you to connect a variety of external devices, including a VCR, DVD

player, portable MP3 player, etc., to your VME9020TS without removing the radio.

To install the iAUX3, connect it to the AUX-IN cables on the back of the VME9020TS

(see “Wiring” on page 9), and then install the iAUX3 in a location convenient for plug-

ging in auxiliary devices.

Using the Cosmetic Trim Ring

A trim ring is packaged with the VME9020TS for installation flexibility. The

VME9020TS will fit into most import dashes with little or no modification to the dash

board/cavity. Some European and 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 trim ring to conceal any gaps that may be

present.

Replacing the Fuse

When replacing the fuse, use a new 10A replacement fuse. Using a fuse with an impro-

per rating could damage the unit and cause a fire.
