Introduction
Dear customer,
Congratulations to this highclass
carhifi-product!
With this model you have chosen best quality united with futuristic design
and innovative functionality.
Please read manual carefully and act so,
to become full pleasure of your new audioamplification.

the amplifier.
Signal-Inputs
!Low-Ievel signal (Cynch-input): is best audio quality. If your car-radio has an preamp output it`s advisable to use
low-level input! .
!RCA - output connectors
!Adjusting the input-level (Gain control)

!GND should be connected to car-chassis
Take the shortest way in order to avoid possible disturbances.
!Remote must be connected to switched + 12V contact from your car-radio.
!After all connections are made, dose the electrical-circiut by re-connecting
the minus-battery-contact.
