1. To prevent ashort circuit, remove the key from the
ignition and disconnect the 8battery.
2. Make the proper input and output wire
connections for each unit.
3. Connect the speaker wires of the wiring harness.
4. Connect the wiring harness wires in the following
order: ground, battery, ignition.
5. Connect the wiring harness connector to the unit.
6. Install the unit in your car.
7. Reconnect the 8battery.
8. Press the reset button.
AWARNING
Ifyou connect the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire
(yellow)
to the car chassis (ground), you may cause ashort
circuit, that
in turn may start a fire. Always connect those
wires
to the power source running through the fuse box.
&
•Ifthe power is not turned ON (or it is ON, but will be OFF
immediately), the speaker wire may have ashort-circuit
or touched the
chassis of the vehicle and the protection
function may have been activated. Therefore, the speaker
wire should be checked.
•Ifyour
car's ignition does not have an ACC position, connect
the ignition wires
to apower source that can be turned on
and
off with the ignition key. Ifyou connect the ignition
wire
to apower source with aconstant voltage supply, as
with battery wires, the battery may die.
•Ifthe console
has alid, make sure to install the unit so that
the faceplate will
not hit the lid when closing and opening.
•Ifthe fuse blows, first make
sure the wires aren't touching
to cause ashort circuit, then replace the old fuse with one
with the same rating.
•Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar
material.
To prevent ashort circuit, do not remove the caps
on the ends of the unconnected wires or the terminals.
•Connect the speaker wires correctly
to the terminals to
which they correspond. The unit may be damaged or fail to
work
if you share the 8wires or ground them to any metal
part
in the car.
•When only two speakers are being connected to the
system, connect the connectors either
to both the front
output terminals or to both the rear output terminals (do
not mix front and
rear). For example, if you connect the c±>
connector of the left speaker to afront output terminal, do
not connect the 8connector
to a rear output terminal.
•After the unit
is installed, check whether the brake lamps,
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car
are working properly.
•
Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.
