IMPORTANT NOTES PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

• This device is only suited for a 12 volt system with negative ground.
• The radiated heat while operation requires sufficient air circulation at the place of installation. It is very important that the heat sink fins do not have contact with any metal parts or any surfaces which could impair air circulation. The amplifier may not be installed in small closed location or spaces without air circulation. We recommend the installation in the vehicle's trunk. Ensure sufficient protection against vibrations, dust and dirt.
• Ensure that the input and output cables are sufficiently separated from the power supply cables. Otherwise interferences may occur.
• Ensure the accessibility of the fuse and the operating elements after installation.
• The reliability and performance of the amplifier depends on the quality of installation. Preferably consult an expert to install the system.
• Avoid any damage or removing of the components of the vehicle like wires, cables, board computer, seat belts, gas tank or the like.

INTERCONNECTION

ATTENTION: Before you start with the installation, disconnect the ground connection from the vehicle's battery in order to prevent short circuits. Use the enclosed cable plug to connect each terminal.

First connect the GND terminal of the amplifier to an appropriate ground connection at the chassis. To ensure a good connection, residue dirt and dust from the connection point. A loose connection may cause malfunctions or interferences noise and distortion.

Then connect the +12 V terminal of the amplifier with the battery by using an appropriate cable including an in-line fuse. This fuse should be located very close to the battery; for safety reasons not more than 30 cm away. Only insert the fuse when the installation, including the connection of the loudspeakers, has been accomplished.

CAUTION: Never use the high level inputs and the RCA inputs at the same time. This may damage the device seriously. Use the enclosed cable plug to connect each terminal.

INPUT SENSITIVITY

Turn the INPUT LEVEL controller of the amplifier to the MIN position. Then turn the volume controller of the head unit to 80 - 90% of its full setting. Now turn INPUT LEVEL clockwise until you hear some distortion. Then turn back INPUT LEVEL slightly until you hear a cleaner sound.

VARIABLE BASS BOOST

By using the BASS BOOST controller you are able to increase the bass enhancement from 0 to 12 dB.

ATTENTION: Use the BASS BOOST wisely!

VARIABLE LOW PASS FILTER

Set the desired crossover frequency by using the controller LOW PASS. Thus to that only the frequencies below the chosen crossover frequency will be amplified and the subwoofer plays more precisely and efficient.

PHASE SWITCH

The PHASE switch allows to switch the phase from 0^ to 180^ to match the output signal with the vehicle's interior acoustic.

PROTECTION CIRCUIT

The PWR LED lights up green, if the amplifier is in operation.

The PRO LED lights up red, when the amplifier is overheated, or a short circuit occurs respective a too low impedance load is connected to the speaker outputs. If this events, the internal built-in protection circuit shuts down the amplifier automatically. The amplifier should work again properly after you have solved the problems.

Troubleshooting

• Check all connections for defects or short circuits and correct them.
• Provide sufficient cooling in the event of overheating and reduce the volume.

AUTO TURN ON

Push the AUTO TURN ON switch to ON position. The amplifier detects now a voltage rise (6 Volts) over the connected input signal on the HI LEVEL IN when the head unit will be switched on. Hence, the amplifier will also be turned on. As soon as the head unit will be turned off, the amplifier turns also automatically off. In this case the turn-on connection is not needed.

NOTE: The AUTO TURN ON function usually works with 90% of all head units, because they are equipped with "High Power"-outputs. Only with a few older and still existing head units the Auto Turn On function is not working.
