A. Is this product compatible with the vehicle?
• See Appendix A – Known Incompatible Vehicles (page 5) and Appendix E – Identification and Connection Chart (pages 6-7) to see if your vehicle is listed.
B. Is this product compatible with the head unit?
• Ensure that the new head unit is capable of being operated with a remote control, and that it responds to the remote control provided with it.
• The head unit must accept a remote control with the common carrier frequency range of 38 – 40Khz in order to work with the SWI-X.
Note: Certain head units will not work with the SWI-X. See Appendix B – Known Incompatible Aftermarket Head Units (page 5).
C. Prepare for the installation.
• If possible, install the SWI-X while you are installing the new head unit. Keep in mind you may need to plug in the factory stereo to locate certain wires; therefore do not complete the head unit installation until the SWI-X is working properly.
• Plan a general installation location for both the SWI-X LED and the control body. Keep in mind that the supplied wire harness is two feet long, and the IR harness is four feet long.
• Use a multimeter or approved measuring device for checking vehicle circuits.

Step 1.
Connect the BLACK wire to ground (-). Verification: Wire or location registers a constant (-) when probed.

Step 2.
Connect the RED wire to switched +12V. Verification: Wire reg- isters +12V when the ignition key is turned to the ACC or ON posi- tions.

Step 3.
Connect the appropriate interface wire (WHITE, YELLOW, ORANGE or GREEN).
• Refer to the Appendix E – Identification and Connection Chart (pages 6-7). Locate the vehicle and note the SWC wire color in the “Interface Wire Color” column.
• Note the vehicle wire color and location information in the “Identification” column.
Note: You will only connect ONE of these wires. Cut and insulate the un-used wires.
• Connect the wire as indicated.
