The GROM iPod adapter is designed to provide endless hours of listening pleasure through most vehicles factory radio. To insure that your iPod performs correctly in your car or truck, we recommend that you read this entire manual before attempting install the GROM interface.

Proper mounting location
Securely install the interface in a location free from; heat, humidity, moving parts or direct sunlight. Beware of hot-air flow from your vehicle’s climate control system. We recommend securing the interface to a suitable location, free of sharp metal edges, using double sided tape, Velcro or wire ties.

Installation location:
Most installations will require you to remove the factory radio in order to plug in the vehicle specific harness.
For some vehicles you will also have an option to connect the interface to the factory pre-run CD changer cable located in the trunk.

Tools needed:
In many cases there are no any special tools required in order to remove the stereo out. For some stereos it is better to use car stereo removal tools. Please consult your local car audio shop or your vehicle’s dealership for instructions or assistance if necessary.

Preparation and adapter installation
1. Turn off car engine and remove key from ignition
2. If your radio uses a Security Code, make sure that you have the code before unplugging the radio.
3. Un-mount your radio from the dash in order to get access to the back side of the radio. Some vehicles require the special tools to remove the radio. Please consult your vehicle’s dealership or a local car audio professional if necessary.
4. Attach the car harness connector to the back of the stereo to the CD changer port. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not force it. Connect the other end to the interface.
5. If there is a black single cable on the vehicle specific harness (3) you will need to attach it to the back bolt of the car stereo.
Note: Without attaching the black cable to the chassis of the stereo GROM adapter will not work!
