Radio receiver as a plug-in module

Before installation, check whether the 4 locking springs on the device engage with the switch panel. To do this, try installing the radio in the removed switch panel.





If the locking springs do not engage, the switch panel at both points of contact of the instrument holders -arrow- should be slightly filed. To do this, remove the radio receiver and the instrument holders from the switch panel.

Caution: Remove the radio only with the retaining clips shown in the figure, otherwise the front wall may be damaged.

Insert both locking brackets into the holes on the front wall and push them in until you hear a noticeable click. This will release the side locking springs.

Remove the radio with both brackets from the instrument panel. The engaged retaining brackets can only be removed again after the radio has been removed. The brackets are included in the radio installation kit.
