INSTALLATION  
This unit is designed for installation in cars, trucks and vans with an existing  
radio opening. In many cases, a special installation kit will be required to  
mount the radio to the dashboard. These kits are available at electronics  
supply stores and car stereo specialty shops. Always check the kit  
application before purchasing to make sure the kit works with your vehicle.  
If you have trouble locating a kit or need installation assistance, contact  
Technical Support at 1-800-323-4815 from 8:30am to 7:00pm EST Monday  
through Friday and from 9:00am to 5:00pm EST on Saturday.  
Preparation  
1. Disconnect Battery  
Before you begin, always disconnect the battery negative terminal.  
NOTE: If the MP6212 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 disconnected, the computer memory may be lost.  
Under these conditions, use extra caution during installation to avoid  
causing a short circuit.

If the opening is too small, carefully cut or file as necessary until the  
sleeve easily slides into the opening. Do not force the sleeve into the  
opening or cause it to bend or bow. Check for sufficient space behind  
the dashboard for the radio chassis.

Kit Installation  
3. Locate the series of bend tabs along the top, bottom, and sides of the  
mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully inserted into the dashboard  
opening, bend as many of the tabs outward as necessary to firmly  
secure the sleeve to the dashboard.  
If your vehicle requires the use of an installation kit to mount this radio,  
follow the instructions included with the installation kit to attach the radio to  
the mounting plate supplied with the kit.  
1. Wire and test the radio as outlined in the Universal Installation instruc-  
tions.  
2. Install the radio/mounting plate assembly to the sub-dashboard  
according to the instructions in the installation kit.  
3. Attach the support strap to the radio and dashboard as described in the  
Universal Installation instructions.  
CAUTION: For proper operation of the CD player, the chassis must be  
mounted within 20° of horizontal. Make sure the unit is mounted within  
this limitation.  
4. 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. See “Wiring” on page 5. After  
completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm operation  
(vehicle ignition must be on). If the unit does not operate, re-check all  
wiring until the problem is corrected.  
4. Replace the dashboard trim panel.  
5. Make sure the radio is right-side up, then  
SPRING CLIP  
carefully slide the radio into the mounting  
sleeve until it is fully seated and the spring clips  
lock it into place.  
6. Secure the rear of the unit to the car body  
using the mounting bolt and rubber cushion.  
7. Test the radio using the Operating Instructions  
that follow.

ISO Installation  
Technical Assistance  
This unit has threaded holes in the chassis  
side panels which may be used with the  
original factory mounting brackets of some  
vehicles to mount the radio to the  
dashboard. Please consult with your local  
car stereo shop for assistance on this type  
of installation.  
If you require assistance, contact Technical Support at 1-800-323-4815  
from 8:30am to 7:00pm EST Monday through Friday and from 9:00am to  
5:00pm EST on Saturday.  
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. Carefully unsnap the plastic frame from the front of the new radio  
chassis. Remove and discard the frame.  
3. Remove the factory mounting brackets and hardware from the existing  
radio and attach them to the new radio. Do not exceed M5 x 9 MM  
maximum screw size. Longer screws may damage components inside  
the chassis.  
4. Wire the new radio to the vehicle as outlined in the Universal Installation  
instructions.  
5. Mount the new radio assembly to the dashboard or center console  
using the reverse procedure of step 1.  
Fuses  
When replacing a fuse, make sure the new fuse is the correct type and  
amperage. Using an incorrect fuse could damage the radio.  
Reconnect Battery  
When wiring is complete, reconnect the battery negative terminal.  
Removing the Radio  
To remove the radio after installation,  
remove the trim ring by lifting in the  
center and pulling it off from either side.  
Insert the removal keys straight back  
until they lock, then pull the radio out. If  
removal keys are inserted at an angle,  
they will not lock properly and will not  
release the unit.

FRONT PANEL RELEASE  
The front panel release button (4) releases the mechanism that holds the  
front panel to the chassis.  
Detaching the Front Panel  
To detach the front panel, first press the front panel release button to  
release the left side of the panel. Next, grasp the released side and pull it off  
the chassis. After removing the front panel, store it in the supplied carrying  
case to protect it from dirt and damage.  
Re-attaching the Front Panel  
To re-attach the front panel, make sure the electrical terminals on the back  
of the panel are free of dust and dirt, as debris could cause intermittent  
operation or other malfunctions. Position the right side of the panel in place  
so that it is correctly engaged, then lightly press the left side of the panel  
until the mechanism locks it into place.
