Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of
a certain type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be
chosen so that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is no more than the required
one for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’lndustrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner
avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par
Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des
autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une
communication satisfaisante.

CONNECTION GUIDE
1) Before Starting
1. This set is intended exclusively for use with a
negative ground 12V power supply.
2. Read these instructions carefully.
3. Be sure to disconnect the battery “terminal” before
starting. This is to prevent short circuits during
installation. (Figure 1)
2) Package Contents
3) General Cautions
1. Do not open the case. There are no
user serviceable parts inside. If you
drop anything into the unit during
installation, consult your dealer or an

1. Be sure to turn the power off when wiring.
2. Be particularly careful where you route the wires.
Keep them well away from the engine, exhaust pipe, etc. Heat may damage the wires.
3. If fuse is blown, check that the wiring is correct.
If it is, replace the fuse with a new one with the same amperage rating as the original one.
4. To replace the fuse, open the lock on the source unit side, remove the old fuse and insert the
new one. (Figure 6)
* There are various types of fuse cases. Do not let the battery side terminal touch other metal
parts.

8) Wiring and Connections
• Connecting to the external amplier
External ampliers can be connected to the 4 channel RCA output connections.
Ensure that the connectors are not grounded or shorted to prevent damage to the unit.
• If M606 is connected as a MULTI-ZONE system with Zone 3 and Zone 4 RCAs con-
nected to ampliers, do not switch M606 to STANDARD mode.
Doing so will cause the Zone 3 amplier to reproduce only low frequencies and the
Zone 4 amplier to reproduce full range frequencies at maximum volume.
This may result in potential speaker and/or hearing damage.
