1. Check clearances on both sides of a planned installation before drilling any

holes or installing any screws. 

2. When routing RCAcables, keep them away from power cables and output

speaker wires.

3. Do not allow liquids or foreign objects to enter the unit.

4. If the unit should become wet, turn off all power and ask your authorized

Clarion dealer to clean or service the unit.   

WIRING PRECAUTIONS

Read all wiring precautions. If you are not sure of the connections, contact
your authorized Clarion dealer.

1. This unit operates on an automotive 12V negative ground power source

and requires additional mobile audio components for proper operation.

2. Disconnect the negative (-) lead of the battery before making any power

connections.

3. A good chassis ground connection is critical to the performance of your

Clarion equalizer. Use the shortest ground wire possible and securely
connect to the car chassis along with the source unit ground to minimize
resistance and avoid noise problems.

4. Extra cable can cause signal loss and act as an “antenna” for noise.  Use

only high-quality RCA cables that are no longer than necessary to make a
direct connection with the source unit and amplifiers.
