In a spa application the red and yellow wires should be jumped together and then connected to
the +12VDC output of the power source. In this set up the CP6 will always be on, with a very low
current draw when idle.
In a boat, ATV or other application requiring power from a battery, the yellow wire (constant
power) should be connected to the battery, and the red wire should be connected to the ignition
or a switch.
For detailed instructions you can check out our online video:

PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION.
Aquatic AV recommends installtion of this stereo by a professional technician.
A mounting template is included (retail packaged models only). Aquatic AV recommends using
the ‘measure twice, cut once’ method!
1.5 Installation
1. Check clearances on both sides of a planned installation area before drilling any holes.
2. Cut the mounting hole using one of the two methods detailed below.
3. Once complete make sure the outside surface is clean and clear of debris. The CP6 stereo
has an external water/dust proof gasket which requires a clean and flat surface for best
performance.
1.5.1 Mounting Hole Method 1
1. Use a spirit level to mark two points 2” (50.8mm) horizontally apart.
2. Drill two pilot holes at the marked points and then using a circular saw drill two holes with
a 3” (76.2mm) diameter.
3. The CP6 should fit through the widest points of the hole and then be secured using either
of the two installaion methods listed below.
1. Using a jigsaw cut a rectangluar hole with dimensions 111mm (W) x 51mm (H).
