Operation

3. Adjust 

LEVEL (MIN/MAX)

 to a com-

fortable listening level.

4. Turn up the auto sound system’s

volume control until the sound
begins to distort. Then immediately
turn the volume down to a point just
before where the distortion began.

Caution: Never turn up the auto
sound system’s volume control
more than needed to adjust the
audio level, or more than two-thirds
of its maximum volume.

5. Adjust 

LEVEL (MIN/MAX)

 until the

sound is at the maximum level you
want the amplifier to produce.

6. Adjust the auto sound system’s vol-

ume control to a comfortable listen-
ing level.

ADJUSTING THE 
FREQUENCY 
CROSSOVER

If you connected a subwoofer using the
steps in “Connecting a Subwoofer
(Bridged Connection)” on Page 12, set

X-OVER FREQ ON/OFF

 to 

ON

, then ad-

just 

X-OVER FREQ

 for your particular ve-

hicle’s acoustics. The amplifier passes
through all frequencies at or below that
setting (45–400 Hz).

Note: 

X-OVER FREQ

 selects the limit at

which the amplifier will pass frequencies
(from 45–400 Hz). You should not use it

to adjust the sound you hear through
your main speakers.
