!!! IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY & INSTALLATION NOTES - MUST READ !!!

VERIFY YOUR ORIGINAL SYSTEM & CLIMATE CONTROLS: These kits often come with different harnesses and CANbus settings depending on whether your Focus originally had:
- The basic radio with manual A/C (simple knobs).
- The Sync 1 system (small screen, physical buttons below).
- The 8-inch MyFord Touch (Sync 2) system with Auto/Dual-Zone climate displayed on screen.
- Crucially, confirm how this kit integrates climate controls (on-screen display vs. retaining physical buttons) and ensure it matches your vehicle's needs.
SONY AUDIO SYSTEM: If your Focus has the factory Sony premium sound system, it may require a specific CANbus adapter or wiring configuration for the amplifier to work correctly. [Confirm if your kit is compatible with the Sony system and if any special adapter is included/required].
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION RECOMMENDED: While designed to be somewhat plug-and-play with the correct harness, installing aftermarket radios with CANbus integration (especially for climate/steering controls) can be complex. Professional installation is advised if you are not experienced with car electronics.
CANbus Configuration: The included CANbus decoder may need specific settings selected (via DIP switches or software) to match your vehicle's exact options for steering wheel controls, climate integration, and backup camera to work correctly.
