Installation
1. Once a safe and suitable location has been chosen for your amplifier, remove both
top trim pieces from the amplifier using a mm hex driver. Store the four screws and
trim pieces in a safe location.
2. Locate the amplifier and mark the mounting hole locations.
3. Remove the amp and pre-drill the mounting holes.
4. Replace the amplifier and secure with adequate hardware.
5. Replace the upper trim panel and secure.
6. Make all the power, signal and speaker connections to the amp.
7. Complete the remainder of the installation and finish tuning the amplifier and system.
8. Install the lower trim panel and secure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Solution
Amplifier will not turn
on - Power LED off
- Using a digital multi-meter, check for 12V at the +12V and
REM Connection relative to the ground connection.
- If the Auto Sensing circuit is being used, try reversing the +
and - connections to the High Level RCA Adapters
Audio stops playing
- Thermal protection circuit has shut down amp to protect
the circuitry. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the
amplifier.
- Fuse at the battery or amplifier is blown. Inspect and replace
as required.
- Amplifier is loaded below 2 Ohms. Check wiring and
reconfigure as required.
Amp shuts off at high
volumes
- Amplifier may not be getting enough power from your vehicle
electrical system. Ensure that during operation, the voltage at
the amplifier does not drop below 10V. Clarion recommends at
least 4 AWG power wire for both +12V and GND connections.
Distorted Audio
- Input gain is not set properly. Adjust as per instructions.
- Source signal is distortion. Reduce source output level.
- Speaker is damaged. Replace as necessary.
Less bass than
expected
- One subwoofer or voice coil may be wired in reverse polarity.
Switch the + and - leads.
- Infrasonic filter may be set to high. Adjust lower.
- Crossover may be set too low. Adjust higher
Fuse Blows
- Amplifier output may be shorted. Check all wiring
- Amplifier may be damaged. Remove all speaker wires
and check functionality. If the fuse blows with no speakers
connection, send the amplifier to Clarion for repair.
Whining or ticking
noise
- The amplifier may picking up electrical noise that is traveling
on the ground shield of the interconnect.
1. Check for solid ground connections at the source unit and
amplifier.
2. Run a ground wire from the amplifier to the source unit.
3. Re-route the interconnect cables away from sources
of electrical noise. Ensure you are using good quality
shielded interconnects.
- The speaker wire or a passive crossover network may be
picking up electrical noise. Reroute wiring as needed.
