Connections to be Made
From the 14-pin harness to the aftermarket radio:
- Connect the Red wire to the accessory wire.
- Connect the Blue/White wire to the amp turn on wire (this wire must be connected to hear sound from the factory amplifier).

- Connect the White RCA to the left front output.
- Connect the Gray RCA to the right front output.
- Connect the Green RCA to the left rear output.
- Connect the Purple RCA to the right rear output.
- Note: If the radio does not have RCA outputs, or only one pair, use the Axxess ALOC648 (4 Ch.) or ALOC608 (2 Ch.) line level converters (sold separately).
The following wires are for aftermarket multimedia/navigation radios that provide these wires (if not required, tape them off and disregard them):
- Connect the Orange wire to the Illumination wire. (If the aftermarket radio has no Illumination wire, tape off the Orange wire.)

Note: Reverse wire is not available on manual transmission vehicles.
Initializing and Adjusting the MITO-02
- Initialize the interface by turning the ignition on for 30 seconds, then turn the ignition back off, and on again.
- If the speakers are too loud, or not loud enough, you can adjust the output by following the steps below:
- Locate the end of the MITO-02 with the 14-pin harness with stripped leads and RCA jacks.
- Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, turn the gain knob clockwise to make it louder, or counterclockwise to make it lower.
