Attention
Use only a cable of sufficient diameter for the power supply connection. Refer to the technical data
in appendix. A cable of greater diameter is always recommendable.
Hint
The diameter of the grounding cable must be at least as large as the diameter of the plus cable.
Warning
Lay the cables single and one after the other. Pay attention to professional mounting. Cables
leading through metal components should always be protected by rubber sleeves. Use only
appropriate cable shoes and isolation covers.
Warning
Avoid bending the cable in a 45° angle. Avoid contact with sharp metal parts or surfaces that could
damage the isolation.
Warning
Always disconnect the battery clamps before performing any maintenance, mounting or
demounting. In any case disconnect at least the minus pole.
Attention
Always install a fuse to the plus cable of the power supply coming from the battery as close as
possible to the battery clamp. If possible use the enclosed fuse.
Attention
When connecting an external capacitor always refer to the instructions enclosed with the capacitor.
We do not grant warranty for any damage caused by improper usage of external power supply
systems.
Attention
Be careful that the ground connection is reliable. Connect the cable only to a metal part of the
vehicle where all paint and other residue have been thoroughly removed.
Warning
Use cables of proper length. Keep the cables as short as possible.
Warning
To ensure that the interference suppression system can function, the cinch entry connections may
not make contact to the metal cabinet of the amplifier.
Warning
Perform any adjustment to the amplifier selection switches only with the amplifier shutoff.
