Before Installation

2WARNING
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and
the battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis
(ground), you may cause a short circuit,
that in turn may start a fire. Always connect
those wires to the power source running
through the fuse box.
¤
• Mounting and wiring this product
requires skills and experience. For safety's
sake, leave the mounting and wiring work
to professionals.
• Make sure to ground the unit to a
negative 12V DC power supply.
• Do not install the unit in a spot exposed
to direct sunlight or excessive heat or
humidity. Also avoid places with too
much dust or the possibility of water
splashing.
• Do not use your own screws. Use only
the screws provided. If you use the wrong
screws, you could damage the unit.
• If the power is not turned ON ("Protect"
is displayed), the speaker wire may have
a short-circuit or touched the chassis of
the vehicle and the protection function
may have been activated. Therefore, the
speaker wire should be checked.
• If your car's ignition does not have an ACC
position, connect the ignition wires to a
power source that can be turned on and
off with the ignition key. If you connect
the ignition wire to a power source with
a constant voltage supply, as with battery
wires, the battery may die.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
aren't touching to cause a short circuit,
then replace the old fuse with one with
the same rating.
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl
tape or other similar material. To prevent
a short circuit, do not remove the caps on
the ends of the unconnected wires or the
terminals.
