Adding Integrated Phone to a RHD CLK
Option 852/854 for Nokia 51xx/61xx/6210
YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK - I ADVISE YOU USE YOUR MB DEALER TO DO THIS
This involves lots of labour - consider installing TV and Voice Recognition at the same time
NB, for LHD version need different wiring harness, instructions very similar
NB, for USA version, wiring and D2B harnesses for this and Voice Recognition already installed, will need D2B plugs to replace jumpers on loom in trunk
so only work in trunk (boot) is required

Install wiring Loom and D2B loom. Be careful of D2B optical loom !!!!!
25 way connector (D type) end is in the boot
Ends 1 ft above the BOSE amplifier
Will have to open up fuse box
Lots of stuff goes via the centre console wiring duct
I don’t know which side the microphone cable runs up the windscreen, probably drivers side
 - But install it on LHS if you want to install Voice recognition
Aerial cable runs up left hand side of car between rear passenger window and rear seatbelt mechanism near window edge
 - stick it to the body with one side sticky felt - the connector ends up in the roof space
Attach D2B Harness to other Carefully open up both D2B connectors at the head-unit end [one from CD, one from phone]
!! Lots of Care needed !! - this exposes the two fibres, one has a white lens one a red - note the positions in the connectors
Keep the CD ones separate to the phone ones !!!
Open the metal clips on the D2B splice connector and insert the red from the CD loom into one end and the close
Insert the white from the Phone loom into the other end of the connector and close that
Using the plastic connector removed in step 1, insert the two remaining D2B cables into that one and close
Note that the colored cables only fit correctly on their correct side of the various D2B connectors
NB, if you confuse the D2B cables, shine a torch down at the phone-electronics end and look at the other end
Install aerial filter On cable from E-Net compensator to phone, at the E-Net compensator in the boot
Install Aerial Connect to wiring loom connector which is just in roof space
Wrap connectors with one side sticky felt
Attach control units to plate These go at top of plate, E net compensator at forward of the other, connectors upward
PSE at rear of plate, connectors at edge, optical connector lower
(Bottom of plate is location for voice-recognition controller)
(positioning based on plate installed in car …)

Attach D2B and 25 way plugs These are push fit and gently clip into place
