Ignition control on an M120?

I want to hook up an M120 in a vehicle, but I would like to have the radio turn on only when the car is in the accessory or run position. I looked up the pinout showing pin 10 as the control for it, or so I think? In the buses at the company I work for, the CDM1550LS+'s have this with only one wire. Is it the same for the M120? This is a 16 pin radio.

Yup, the main power lead needs constant power and pin 10 gets switched ignition....And your off..

And the internal pico fuse needs to be removed. Make sure to use a small fuse in the ignition control line instead.
