contents.

Installation

 Mount the unit either inside the trunk (boot) or
under a seat.
 Choose the mounting location carefully so the
unit will not interfere with the normal movements
of the driver and it will not be exposed to direct
sunlight or hot air from the heater.
 Do not install the unit under the floor carpet,
where the heat dissipation from the unit will be
considerably impaired.
Mounting the unit
First, place the unit where you plan to install it, and
mark the positions of the 4 screw holes on the
mounting board (not supplied). Then drill a 3 mm
( 1 / in) pilot hole at each mark and mount the unit
8
onto the board with the supplied mounting screws.
The mounting screws are all 14 mm (
make sure that the mounting board is thicker than
14 mm ( 9 / in).

Connections
 Before making any connections, disconnect the
ground (earth) terminal of the car battery to avoid
short circuits.
 Be sure to use speakers with an adequate power
rating. If you use small capacity speakers, they
may be damaged.
 This is a Phase-Inverted Amplifier.
 Do not connect the  terminal of the speaker
system to the car chassis, and do not connect the
 terminal of the right speaker with that of the
left speaker.
 Install the input and output cords away from the
power supply wire. Running them close together
may generate interference noise.
 This unit is a high powered amplifier. Therefore, it
may not perform to its full potential if used with
the speaker cords supplied with the car.
 If your car is equipped with a computer system for
navigation or some other purpose, do not remove
the ground (earth) wire from the car battery. If you
disconnect the wire, the computer memory may
be erased. To avoid short circuits when making
connections, disconnect the +12 V power supply
wire until all the other wires have been
connected.
Making the terminal connections
Note
When you tighten the screw, be careful not to apply too
much torque as doing so may damage the screw (the
torque value should be less than 1 N•m).

Power Connections

 Connect the +12 V power supply wire only after all
the other wires have been connected.
 Be sure to connect the ground (earth) wire of the
unit securely to a metal point of the car. A loose
connection may cause a malfunction of the
amplifier.
 Be sure to connect the remote control wire of the
car audio unit to the remote input (REM) terminal.
 When using a car audio unit without a remote
output for the amplifier, connect the remote input
(REM) terminal to the accessory power supply.
