4-3. POWER CABLE
The power cable consists of а fused red lead, а fused black lead, and а 2-pin
systems plug. To install the power cable, if an existing hole is conveniently
located for passage of the power cable through the firewall, start with the plug
end of the cable at the radio and connect the two leads to the vehicle battery.
Drill the firewall as required and install a rubber grommet. Pass the power cable
leads into the engine compartment from the passenger compartment.
Connect the red fused ead to the positive (+) battery terminal or switched
power source, and black lead to the negative (—) battery terminal. Always
locate the fuse as close to the battery as possible. Coil up the surplus cable and
secure it out of the way with the retaining strap provided. Be sure to leave some
slack in the cables going to the radio so that it may be pulled out for servicing
with the power applied.
