First, determine the correct shaft spacing required for your vehicle, then adjust the spacing as necessary. 2. Install one shaft boot on each control shaft. 3. Install one shaft nut and one shaft washer on each control shaft. Determine the correct positions for the shaft nuts by placing the unit in the dashboard. 4. From behind the dashboard, insert the unit through the dash opening. If the unit protrudes too far, or not far enough, adjust the position of the shaft nuts. (Once the correct position is found, it may be necessary to cut off excess material to shorten the shaft boots.) 5. Attach the rear support bracket to the threaded stud on the rear of the stereo using the supplied nut. 6. Attach the free end of the rear support bracket to the vehicle with the screw provided. 7. Secure the front of the unit with the supplied shaft washers and nuts. NOTE: The faceplate is provided for use on automobiles which have enough space surrounding the radio to accept the plate. Attach the faceplate to the stereo by mounting the nuts and washers in front of the faceplate. (If the shafts have been moved to the extreme outside position, it may be necessary to widen the openings in the faceplate by using a round file.) 8. Attach the knobs to the control shafts. 4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS WIRING FOR MAR-B1021 4-speaker System (White) Front Left (White/Black) Speaker (Gray) Front Right (Gray/Black) Speaker (Green) Rear Left (Green/Black) Speaker (Violet) Rear Right (Violet/Black) Speaker 2-speaker System (White) (White/Black) (Gray) (Gray/Black) (Green) (Green/Black) (Violet) (Violet/Black) Left Speaker Right Speaker +12V Constant Power Supply (yellow) +12V Accessory/Switched (Red) Ground Wire (Black) Power Antenna/Amplifier Turn On (Blue/Red) Caution • DO NOT connect any speaker wires to the metal body or chassis of the vehicle. • Connect each speaker wire directly to each speaker terminal. • All speaker common (–) wires must remain floating. 1 Antenna socket • Insert the plug from the antenna installed in your vehicle into this socket.
