USE
The amplified subwoofer can be connected with every car radio, and with its powerful bass
sound it complements the vehicles original sound system. Its high signal level access
(HIGH INPUT) makes possible the connection with radios (for example with pre-installed
radios on the dashboard), that do not have separate connectors for this purpose. The low-
level RCA input can be used for better sound quality, if the car radio also has a similar low-
level audio output.
2in1:
cannot be used only as a subwoofer, but also as a 2-
w
ay, full-featured stage cabinet, if
you turn on the built-in tweeter (
FULL
setting).
INSTALLATION, CONNECTION
There are two ways of connecting the audio signal. Choose between them based on if your
car has a low level (RCA) outlet or does not. If yes, choose that to achieve a better sound
quality. With a separately obtainable RCA cable connect the car
LINE OUT
(2xRCA) outlet
to the sound cabinets'
L-CH
and
R-CH
(2xRCA) access.
If the car radio does not have an RCA outlet, then the high level speaker outlet needs to be
connected with the subwoofer. This solution can be used with every car radio. Connect the
car radio's speaker cable to the sound cabinet high signal level access (
HIGH INPUT
). The
subwoofer should be connected parallel to the already connected speakers. Use the
included short connection cable with the plug end.
Three screws are responsible for fixing the 12
V
power supply:
GND:
negative polarity
from the metal surface of the vehicle /
REM:
remote controlled on and off switching/
+12
V
:
positive polarity.
The +12
V connected to the
REM
connector turns the amplifier on. If the car radio has a
+12
V switch voltage outlet, then the subwoofer turns on automatically with the car radio,
and turns off when the radio is turned off. If the radio has no such thing, then the +12
V
needs to be connected to the
REM
connector for it to be operational. This can be operated
manually even with – for example a separate switch – which is built-on the control panel.
Every connection must be done while the system is not under electricity! Make sure the
connection is done according to the given polarity. Follow the wiring diagram of the signal
source (car radio, signal booster) on every occasion. The recommended power supply cable
2
diameter is at least 2 x 1,00 mm . Before firstly putting the system under electricity, check that
the connections are done correctly. The connections should be stable and without short
circuit. The volume control (
LEVEL
) should be in tis minimum position and the crossover
(
LPF
) should be in middle position. Turning on is done with the securing of the supply voltage.
Then start carefully increasing the volume. It is advised to connect the supply voltage through
the fuse panel of the vehicle in such a way so when the ignition key is removed, the
subwoofer does not get any more voltage. If you provide the supply voltage directly from the
battery, it is advised to build an on/off switch (not included) into the control panel.
SETTING THE CROSSOVER / SUBWOOFER OR BROADBAND MODE
Use the
LPF
controller and the
CONTROL
slider to set the frequency range you want to
play. Between 40 Hz and 200 Hz, the upper limit of the audio band can be adjusted. This is
the deepest, sub-bass range.
When you set the switch to
FULL
position, the built-in tweeter turns on and the product turns
into to a full-featured, 2-
w
ay sound cabinet instead of subwoofer. This mode is useful when
there is no built-in speakers in the vehicle. Or if you do not want to use it in a standard vehicle.
MAXIMUM VOLUME
Every speaker must be eased into working before proper usage. In the first 30-50 operation
hours it should only run at 50% capacity! In certain cases there can be distorted, or lower
quality sound. This can be caused the inbound signals not appropriate quality, or it being not
high enough. The system's maximum volume is that which can still hear without distortions.
By further increasing the volume, the outgoing output will not increase, but the system's
distortion will grow! This is harmful for the speakers, and can lead to their malfunction!
CLEANING
Use a soft, dry cloth and brush for regular cleaning. With a slightly moist cloth clean the
plastic parts of the device. Do not use aggressive cleaners! Do NOT let liquids come into
contact with the inside of the device, or its connectors!
WARNINGS
•
Please read the instructions carefully before use, and keep it to have it available in the
future! Installing car-hifi devices requires important technical knowledge, and experience,
•
which we do not have the means to detail in this manual. If necessary contact a specialist,
so you do not damage the device, or the vehicle! Proper installation is a requirement for
reliable operation. Do not listen to the device too loud!! Choose a volume level for listening
•
which lets you from perceive the sounds of traffic during driving! Too loud volume may cause
hearing loss! Only for use in cars with a 12 V battery and a negative ground. Using the
•
player for any other purpose can result in electric shock, damage, or fire. The player was
designed exclusively for use in vehicles! Always use melting fuses with the proper values.
•
When replacing a fuse, make sure that the new fuse has the same nominal value as the one
you are replacing. Using a different fuse can cause fire or damage. (15 Ampere) Make sure
•
to connect it correctly. Incorrect connections can result fire or other defaults. Prior to
•
wiring/installation, be sure to remove the car battery's negative terminal connection! This
•
will prevent any electric shock, short circuit or malfunction.
Place it safely – and if
•
necessary fix – the device in the trunk of the car! Check so moving objects (e.g.: luggage)
does not come into contact with the subwoofer! The subwoofer can be easily damaged, do
not touch the subwoofers cone, or rubber edge with hand or tools!
Make sure the
•
connections are correct! Improper connection can lead to malfunction. The poles of the
speaker cannot touch each other, or the grounding of the car (its negative potential)!
•
Immediately shut down the device, if you notice any error, and contact a specialist! Many
irregularities (no sound, bad odor, smoke, foreign object in the device) can be noticed easily.
•
It is forbidden to touch or place any object into it through the side bass-reflex opening by
hands or devices! Protect from dust, humidity, liquids, heat, frost, and shock, and from
•
direct heat or sunshine! Protect it from splashing water, and do not place objects filled with
•
liquids e.g.: cups on top of it! Open flame sources, like a burning candle, cannot be placed
•
on be device! Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the unit or its accessories, because
•
it can cause fire, accident or electric shock! Do not do cable connecting when the device is
•
operational Never shut down the system when the volume is fully turned up! The usually
heard cracking or other sound waves can immediately ruin the speaker. In order to protect
•
audio system from external noise, lead the cables far from the power network and other
cables! Improper installation, or usage can lead to the termination of the warranty. The
•
•
speakers contain magnets, so do not place items near them which are susceptible to them
(e.g.: credit card, cassette tape, compass…).

TROUBLESHOOTING
Upon noticing any error turn off the device! Later try turning it back on. If the problem
persists, look through the following notes. This guide can help in identifying the problem, if
the device is connected correctly beside it. If necessary, contact a specialist!
The sound cabinet has no sound
.
•
The amplifier does not get supply voltage.
- Check the amplifier's supply voltage, if it has supply voltage, and its right polarity.
•
The access is not properly connected to the car's sound system.
- Check the connection cable for the possibility of tears, short circuit, and if it is correctly
connected.
The volume or sound quality is not appropriate
.
•
The audio level connected to the access is either too high or too low.
- Check the connection cable's connection, the quality of the signal source, and the strength
of the signal.
- If necessary, increase or decrease the inbound signal level.
