- Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal parts of this unit during and shortly after use of the unit. Metal parts such as the heat sink and enclosure become hot.
- Do not connect the wires of speakers to the car chassis or Ground wire (black), or connect them in parallel.
- Connect speakers with a maximum power of more than 50W . If the maximum power of the speakers is lower than 50W , change the [AMP GAIN] setting to avoid damaging the speakers. ( 10)
- Mount the unit at an angle of less than 30^ .
- If your vehicle wiring harness does not have the ignition terminal, connect Ignition wire (red) to the terminal on the vehicle's fuse box which provides 12 V DC power supply and is turned on and off by the ignition key.
- Keep all cables away from heat dissipate metal parts.
- After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.
- If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires are not touching car's chassis, then replace the old fuse with one that has the same rating.
Basic procedure
1 Remove the key from the ignition switch, then disconnect the terminal of the car battery.
2 Connect the wires properly. See Wiring connection. (→ 15)
3 Install the unit to your car. See Installing the unit (in-dash mounting).
4 Connect the terminal of the car battery.
5 Reset the unit. ( 3)
