ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the
battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections
before installing the unit. If you are not sure how to install this unit
correctly, have it installed by a qualified technician.
Note:
This unit is designed to operate on 12V DC, NEGATIVE ground
electrical systems. If your vehicle does not have this system, a
voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at JVC car
audio dealers.
•Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse
blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.
•If noise is a problem...
This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. However,
with some vehicles, clicking or other unwanted noise may occur.
If this happens, connect the unit’s rear ground terminal (See
connection diagram below.) to the car’s chassis using shorter
and thicker cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If noise
still persists, consult your JVC car audio dealer.
•Maximum input of the speakers should be more than 40W at the
rear and 40W at the front, with an impedance of 4 to 8 Ω.
•Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis.
•The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to
touch it when removing this unit.
ESPAÑOL
CONEXIONES ELECTRICAS
Para evitar cortocircuitos, recomendamos que desconecte el
terminal negativo de la batería y que efectúe todas las conexiones
eléctricas antes de instalar la unidad. Si usted no está seguro de
cómo instalar correctamente la unidad, hágala instalar por un
técnico cualificado.
Nota:
Esta unidad está diseñada para funcionar con 12V de CC, con
sistemas eléctricos de masa NEGATIVA. Si su vehículo no
posee este sistema, será necesario un inversor de tensión, que
puede ser adquirido en los concesionarios de JVC de equipos
de audio para automóviles.
• Reemplace el fusible por uno con la corriente especificada. Si
el fusible se quemase frecuentemente consulte con su
concesionario de JVC de equipos de audio para automóviles.
• Si el ruido fuese un problema...
Esta unidad tiene un filtro de ruido en el circuito de alimentación.
Sin embargo, en algunos vehículos, pueden producirse
chasquidos u otros ruidos indeseados. En tal caso conecte el
terminal de tierra posterior (Ver diagrama de conexión abajo.)
del receptor al chasis del automóvil, utilizando cordones más
gruesos y cortos tales como alambre de cobre trenzado o de
grueso calibre. Si el ruido persiste, consulte a su concesionario
de JVC de equipos de audio para automóvil.
• La entrada máxima de los altavoces traseros debe ser mayor
de 40W y la de los delanteros de 40W, con una impedancia de
4 a 8 Ω.
•Asegúrese de conectar esta unidad a tierra en el chasis del
automóvil.
• El sumidero térmico estará muy caliente después del uso.
Asegúrese de no tocarlo al desmontar esta unidad.

RACCORDEMENTS ELECTRIQUES
Pour éviter tout court-circuit, nous vous recommandons de
débrancher la borne négative de la batterie et d’effectuer tous les
raccordements électriques avant d’installer l’appareil. Si l'on n’est
pas sûr de pouvoir installer correctement cet appareil, le faire
installer par un technicien qualifié.
Remarque:
Cet appareil est conçu pour fonctionner sur des sources de courant
continu de 12V àmasse NEGATIVE . Si votre véhicule n’offre pas
ce type d’alimentation, il vous faut un convertisseur de tension,
que vous pouvez acheter chez un revendeur d’autoradios JVC.
• Remplacer le fusible par un de la valeur précisée. Si le fusible
saute souvent, consulter votre revendeur d’autoradios JVC.
• Si le bruit est un problème...
Cet appareil incorpore un filtre de bruit dans le circuit
d’alimentation. Cependant, avec certains véhicules, quelques
claquements ou autres bruits non désirés risquent de se produire.
Si cela arrive, raccorder la
borne de masse arrière de l’appareil
au châssis de la voiture (voir le schéma de raccordement ci-
dessous) en utilisant des cordons les plus gros et les plus courts
possibles telle qu'une barre de cuivre ou une tresse. Si le bruit
persiste, consulter votre revendeur d’autoradios JVC.
• La puissance admissible des haut-parleurs doit être supérieure
à40W àl’arrière et à40W l’avant, avec une impédance de
4 à8 Ω .
•S'assurer de raccorder la mise àla masse de cet appareil
au châssis de la voiture.
•
Le radiateur devient très chaud après usage. Faire attention de
ne pas le toucher en retirant cet appareil.
