INSTALLATION
NOTE
Mounting surface of faceplate trim must be above 60°F (16°C), or the trim may not stay attached.
| 1. | Using a 50:50 isopropyl alcohol/water solution, thoroughly clean the surface where the faceplate trim will be installed. | |
NOTICE Do not clean with denatured alcohol, mineral spirits, or other solvent products, or component damage may occur. (00411c) | ||
| 2. | Allow the surface to dry completely before continuing to install kit. | |
| 3. | Test the fit of the faceplate trim prior to removing adhesive backing. | |
| 4. | Remove the adhesive backing from the back of the faceplate trim. | |
| 5. | See Figure 1. Install the faceplate trim, locating it upward as far as possible. This position will align the opening in the faceplate trim with the indicator lights. NOTE If you do not position the faceplate trim properly, this may prevent proper clearances between the CD door and trim for 2006 and later models. | |
| 6. | Let the adhesive cure for at least 24 hours at no less than 60°F (16°C). NOTE For models earlier than 2006, the installation is complete after the faceplate trim is installed. |  Figure 1. Indicator lights properly aligned through faceplate |
