• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will block outside sounds, making driving dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any complicated operations.
CAUTIONS AND NOTES
This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground electrical systems.
• This unit uses BTL (Balanced Transformerless) amplifi er circuitry, i.e., fl oating ground system,
so comply with the following:
– Do not connect the "·" terminals of the speakers to each other.
– Do not connect the "·" terminals of the speakers to the metal body or chassis.
• Cover the unused leads with insulating tape to prevent them from short circuiting.
• When an extension lead is used, it should be as thick and short as possible; connect it fi rmly
with insulating tape.
• Be sure to leave an appropriate space between the antenna (aerial) and the wires of this unit.
• When replacing the fuse, only use 25 A fuses.
• Do not let pebbles, sand or metallic objects get inside the unit.
• To keep the heat dissipation mechanism running effectively, wipe the accumulated dust off
periodically.
• Listening to the tape, radio, CD or digital audio player, etc. with the volume set at a high level for
a long period of time will exhaust the battery, while the engine is turned off or while the engine
is idling.
• This unit becomes very hot. Be careful not to touch the unit not only when using but after using.

or in insulated areas such as under a car mat that will prevent the unit from dissipating heat.
• When mounting the unit under the front seat, make sure that adjusting the seat position will
not catch any wire of the unit.

2 Ground lead (not provided)
3 Power cord (not provided)
• When using a power cord, add a 25 A fuse near the battery as shown.
• Connect to the battery's "ª" terminal only after all the other connections have been made.
The proper lead connected to each POWER terminal is as follows:
– + B and GND: AWG 8 to AWG 4 (The cross section is about 8 mm
– REM: AWG 18 to AWG 8 (The cross section is about 0.8 mm

• If the same lead is used for both left/right or front/rear speaker wirings, this unit cannot be used.
Always use the independent leads for each speaker. In this case, redo the wirings.
• Use the speakers with an impedance of 2 Ω to 8 Ω (4 Ω to 8 Ω: when used in Bridge Mode).
• Use the speakers which have sufficient capacity to the unit.
The proper lead connected to each SPEAKER OUTPUT terminal is AWG 18 to AWG 12 (The
