This car stereo is specifically designed for Ford Fusion Mondeo models manufactured between 2013 and 2019. Please verify your vehicle's model year before installation.

• Original A/C Board: The cable does NOT support original cars equipped with a large screen. The plug of the original A/C board must be reconnected to the original car, and the protocol set to match the car model for the A/C function to be effective. Refer to the installation instructions for details.

4. Installation Guide

Professional installation is recommended. Ensure the vehicle's battery is disconnected before starting the installation process to prevent electrical damage.

4.1 Pre-Installation Check:

1. Combine the red and yellow wires of the car stereo, then connect them to the positive pole of the 12V battery. Connect the black wire to the negative pole of the battery.
2. After 2 seconds, check the car stereo. If the screen lights up, it means the car stereo is functioning normally. If it does not work after installation, recheck the installation procedure.

4.2 Physical Installation Steps:

1. Loosen the four screws fixing the hardware at the back of the host unit. Then, unplug the corresponding motherboard connector cables.

3. Attach the two iron plates together on both sides using screws. Connect the cables to the motherboard, and finally tighten the hardware screws on the back of the host.

4.3 Wiring Connections:
