Wiring
Important
If wiring connections
are
made
wrong,
the
unit
will not operate properly and it could
be
damaged.
Follow
the
installation instructions
carefully,
or
have
the
installation handled by
an
experienced
technician.

Connections
Good wire connections are very important for
best sound and
long-term reliability. Here
are
two methods:
Splice
1.
Strip 1/2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from
both wires.
2.
Wrap wires together
3.
Fold wires
over

4.
Stretch electrical
tape
tightly
over
splice.
Solder
Solder is the best way
to
connect wires, but
it
takes skill and practice. Splice the wires (as
shown
above).
Before taping, heat
the
wires
(not the solder). When
the
wires are warm
enough, touch the solder
to
the splice. The
solder
will flow
over
the wires. Stretch electri-
cal tape tightly
over
splice.
Crimp Connections
Purchase crimp connectors and crimping
tool. Connectors are color coded. This
Jensen radio uses BLUE connectors
(12-14
gage wire).
1.
Strip 1/4 inch (6mm) of insulation from
both wires.
2.
Insert into connector.
3.
Crimp tightly.
You
can make permanent splices (using
butt connectors) or select connectors that
can
be
removed
and reinstalled.
