2- Installation Guide
Before installation, please carefully read the Manual. To guarantee user interests, it is suggested that the product be installed by professional staff.
2.1 Installation Preparation
1. The product only operates on a vehicle with 12 Volt DC, negative ground system. Do not use it on other voltage system.
2.The product is only fit for vehicles whose Head Unit, either factory fitted radio or aftermarket car radio, is equipped with CD changer port.
3. Moreover, different solutions of Digital Media Changer would be adopted according to different brand of vehicles or different car radios.
4. Some vehicles require the special tools to remove the radio. Please consult your vehicle's dealership or car audio professional if necessary.
5. Most installations will require removing the factory stereo in order to plug in the vehicle- specific harness. For some vehicles, you will also have the option to connect the interface to the factory pre-run CD changer cable located in the trunk or glove box.
2.3 Installation Guide
1. Turn off car engine and remove key from ignition, if your radio uses a Security Code, make sure that you have the code before unplugging the radio.2. Unmount the radio from the dash in order to get access to the back side of the radio, and find CD Changer port at the back of the radio.
3. Attach the wire 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.
4. Once the Yatour is connected to the radio, you will need to test the operation of the interface before re-assembling the dash. Insert SD card or USB flash stick, and power on the Head Unit, then press CD (or Disc /
Mode / CDC / SOURCE / AUX) button for once or twice to switch to playback mode of Digital Media Changer, with the symbol of LED light being on. Meanwhile, CDC, EX, or CD01 will display on the radio screen(depending on the car stereo type). Now the Digital Media Changer will run normally.
5. After successful test, re-assemble the radio, and put wire harness and module unit box in proper place. Then installation is completed. If you experience difficulties with the installation, please check our troubleshooting section of this manual.
2.4 Important Installation Notes
1. If there is a BLACK ground wire on the harness, please attach it to any metal part of the car stereo body; If there is a YELLOW power wire on the harness, please attach it to the power of the car, which connect to battery; If there is a RED ACC wire on the harness, please attach it to the ACC signal of the car. Without attaching those cables to the right position, this Digital Media Changer will not work!
2. As to some vehicles with existing CD Changer, Parallel Harness or MP3/CDC Switch Cable will be provided. This allows Digital Media Changer to hook up with existing CD Changer. Simply connect the existing CD Changer to the male connector of Digital Media Changer.
3. Regarding Fiat, Renault models, two black wires with metal ends (male+female) come along with CDC connector. If noise problem exists when using Digital Media Changer, please hook up the two grounding wires with each other.
4. As for Audi factory radio of mini ISO 8 pin, its CDC connector is 20-pinblock connector, in order to install Yatour, it requires to cut the 8-pin part
or connect with our special Audi 20-pin adapter cable.
5. As for Clarion protocol radios, such as some BUICK radio and SUZUKI radio, it requires to totally unplug the wire harness before installation, in order to power off the electric supply. If not, it would probably cause Yatour not to work, or radio screen flickering.
6. As for installation on CAN-Bus radios of Peugeot/Citroen, Renault, Ford(new) and Mazda(new), it is required to unplug the radio from the power before installation. Otherwise, Digital Media Changer might work improperly or the radio might be caused damage. Regarding Peugeot/Citroen without pre-installed CD Changer, to enable Digital Media Changer to work, the CD Changer function must be activated by professional tools. Please enquire the Peugeot/Citroen dealer on how to activate the CD Changer function.
7. As per BMW radios with CD Changer, the CD Changer must be completely disconnected before installation (The 3-pin and the 6-pin connector, both are located in the trunk, must be disconnected), otherwise, Yatour will not be recognized. Besides, if the BMW radios are
with DSP, extra DSP kit and specific Yatour would be used

3. The operation of Digital Media Changer is nearly equal to that of the factory fitted radio, but some button functions of some factory radios might be altered. However, this alteration would not affect the functions of the factory radio or existing CD changer.
- 4- Common Troubleshooting
1. Digital Media Changer doesn't work after installation. Please check whether the wire harness is correctly connected. And if there is GND wire(for some car models), please check whether it connects well with metal parts of car radio.
2. After installation, I pressed CD button for switch, it can switch to MP3 playback status, but only one CD folder works, how should I do? This problem is probably caused by improper folder structure you saved/organised in USB device/SD card. Please follow the rules as abovestated, to access the music, it is important that the music has been saved/organised into folders which are named CD01, CD02, CD03...CD99. Otherwise, all tracks/songs will be recognized as only one virtual CD disk.
3. When auxiliary audio device is connected via AUX IN slot, I can still hear music sound from USB device, how to do with this?Please then remove the USB device/SD card from Digital Media Changer before you use the AUX IN, otherwise USB device/SD card playback will not automatically stop.
4. When playing tracks from AUX device, it is running quite well, but cannot be controlled by head unit, either tracks or CD folders cannot be switched, what can I do?
AUX is an external audio input, you can only adjust the volume via head unit when in AUX playback status. It is normal that you cannot switch tracks or CD folders. So if you need full-function control via head unit, please replace AUX with SD card or USB flash stick.
5. My car has a CD changer already, and I want to install Digital Media Changer, how can I do?
As to part of the cars equipped with existing CD Changer, we can offer Parallel Harness, which allows Digital Media Changer to hook up with the existing cd Changer. There is a Switch for CDC and MP3 conversion, thus you could choose to play Digital Media Changer or CD Changer as you like. However, please note Parallel Harness is not available for all cars.
6. My car original stereo has only Cassette, can I connect Digital Media Changer to my car stereo?
It depends on whether there is extra CD changer port for Digital Media Changer, but has nothing to do with whether the head unit is CD or Cassette.
7. What happens when I receive a call and my iPhone is connected?
The sound from the stereo will automatically mute and the phones ring will be heard over the factory radio speakers. When the call answered on the iPhone, it will enter privacy mode and the iPhone operates as it normally does during a call. No sound will come from the stereo system. Once a call is completed the sound returns to the factory radio.
