First make the ground connection, then +12V wire connection, and finally the remote
connection. The +12V wire must always be fused at the battery for protection against
possible damage. If you need to replace the power fuse, replace it with a fuse of
the same value.

Caution

+12V Power
Disconnect the battery ground cable.

 Connect the +12V terminal of the amplifier to the + terminal

of the battery using the same gauge cable for Positive and Negative connections. Install an in-line fuse
holder at the battery positive, removing the fuse until all connections are completed.

GROUND
Disconnect the battery

 and connect the GND (ground) terminal to the cars frame or chassis with the

same gauge wire used for the +12V power connection. Keep this cable as short as possible.
Make sure that the connection point at frame or chassis is rust free and clear of paint or grime.

REMOTE

Connect the REM terminal of the amplifier to the +12 trigger out of the source unit, or an accessory
terminal of the fuse box or ignition switch.

POWER CONNECTION

ZX-500.2 / ZX-200.4

Caution

This amplifier is not supplied with internal 
fuse in itself. Make sure you install in-line 
fuse holder from the +terminal of battery. 
ZX-500.2:Recommend 250 Ampere fuse.
ZX-200.4:Recommend 200 Ampere fuse.
