Make sure that your vehicle’s electrical system (i.e., alternator, battery,
etc.) Is capable of handling the additional load. If you are planning a
multi-amplifier system, you may need to add a second battery and
possibly upgrade the alternator with a higher output rated model.
Consult your authorized dealer for recommendations.
It is also recommended to add a digital capacitor to supplement the
vehicles battery and assist the amplifier(s)
To avoid possible noise problems, run the amplifier’s positive (+) power
lead along one side of the vehicle to the battery. Run the remote turn-on
wire and RCA audio cables down the center, and route the speaker wires
along the remaining side. If wires must cross, run them perpendicular to
each other.
When creating passage holes for the power wiring, use grommets to
eliminate any sharp edges created during drilling. This will protect the
wire from being nicked and causing a short circuit.
Extra cable can cause signal loss and act an “antenna” for noise. Use
only higher quality RCA cables that are no longer than necessary to
make a direct connection with the source unit or equalizer.
CAUTION
To begin, make +12V wire connection, secondly the ground connection
and finally the remote connection. Furthermore, the +12V wire must
always be fused as the battery and for protection against possible
damage. If you would like to replace the power fuse, replace it with a
same value shown on the surface of the fuse. Using a fuse of a different
type or rating may result a serious hazard.
