WARNING
• Use speakers over 50 W (output
value) and between 4 Ω to 8 Ω
(impedance value). Do not use 1 Ω to
3 Ω speakers for this unit.
• The black cable is ground. When
installing this unit or power amp
(sold separately), make sure to
connect the ground wire first. Ensure
that the ground wire is properly
connected to metal parts of the car’s
body. The ground wire of the power
amp and the one of this unit or any
other device must be connected to
the car separately with different
screws. If the screw for the ground
wire loosens or falls out, it could
result in fire, generation of smoke or
malfunction.
Important
• When installing this unit in a vehicle
without an ACC (accessory) position
on the ignition switch, failure to
connect the red cable to the terminal
that detects operation of the ignition
key may result in battery drain.
• Use this unit with a 12-volt battery
and negative grounding only. Failure
to do so may result in a fire or
malfunction.
• To prevent a short-circuit,
overheating or malfunction, be sure
to follow the directions below.
– Disconnect the negative terminal
of the battery before installation.
– Secure the wiring with cable
clamps or adhesive tape. Wrap
adhesive tape around wiring that
