The Safety of Your Ears is in
Your Hands
Get the most out of your equipment by playing
it at a safe level—a level that lets the sound
come through clearly without annoying blar-
ing or distortion and, most importantly, with-
out affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound
can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing
“comfort level”adapts to higher volumes of
sound, so what sounds “normal”can actually
be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard
against this by setting your equipment at a
safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
!Set your volume control at a low setting.
!Slowly increase the sound until you can
hear it comfortably and clearly, without dis-
tortion.
!Once you have established a comfortable
sound level, set the dial and leave it there.
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
GUIDELINES:
!Do not turn up the volume so high that you
can’t hear what’s around you.
!Use caution or temporarily discontinue use
in potentially hazardous situations.
!Do not use headphones while operating a
motorized vehicle; the use of headphones
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.

speaker.
!When the Subwoofer is connected:
Select ON. This eliminates high range
frequency and outputs low range fre-
quency.
!When the full range speaker is con-
nected:
Select OFF.OFF outputs the entire fre-
quency range.
2FREQ (cut off frequency) control
Cut off frequency selectable from 40 Hz to
500 Hz if the LPF select switch is set to ON.
3BASS BOOST (bass boost level control)
switch
You can select a bass boost level from 0 dB,
6 dB and 12 dB.
4GAIN (gain) control
If output remains low, even when the car
stereo volume is turned up, turn controls to
lower level. If distortion occurs when the car
stereo volume is turned up, turn these con-
trols to higher level.
!For use with an RCA equipped car stereo
(standard output of 500 mV), set to the
NORMAL position. For use with an RCA
equipped Pioneer car stereo, with maxi-
mum output of 4 V or more, adjust level
to match that of the car stereo output.
!For use with an RCA equipped car stereo
with output of 4 V, set to the HIGH posi-
tion.
!If you hear too much noise when using
the speaker input terminals, turn the
gain control to higher level.
5Power indicator
The power indicator lights up to indicate
power ON.
Setting gain properly
!Protective function included to prevent
malfunction of the unit and/or speakers
due to excessive output, improper use or
improper connection.
!When outputting high volume sound etc.,
this function cuts off the output for a few
seconds as a normal function, but output
is restored when the volume of the head
unit is turned down.

English
Section
02
Setting the unit

!A cut in sound output may indicate impro-
per setting of the gain control. To ensure
continuous sound output with the head
unit at a high volume, set amplifier gain
control to a level appropriate for the preout
maximum output level of the head unit, so
that volume can remain unchanged and to
control excess output.
!Despite correct volume and gain settings,
the unit sound still cuts out periodically. In
such cases, please contact the nearest
authorized Pioneer Service Station.
Gain control of this unit
Preout level: 4 V
Preout level: 2 V
(Standard: 500 mV)
Above illustration shows NORMAL gain set-
ting.
Relationship between amplifier gain
and head unit output power
If amplifier gain is raised improperly, this will
simply increase distortion, with little increase
in power.
Signal waveform when outputting at
high volume using amplifier gain
control
If the signal waveform is distorted due to high
output, even if the amplifier gain is raised, the
output power will change only slightly.

Before installing the amplifier
WARNING
!To ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the manner specified. If any parts
other than those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be-
come loose causing the amplifier to shut
down.
!Do not install in:
—Places where it could injure the driver or
passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.
—Places where it may interfere with the dri-
ver, such as on the floor in front of the dri-
ver’s seat.
!Install tapping screws in such a way that the
screw tip does not touch any wire. This is im-
portant to prevent wires from being cut by vi-
bration of the car, which can result in fire.
!Make sure that wires do not get caught in the
sliding mechanism of the seats or touch the
legs of a person in the vehicle as short-circuit
may result.
!When drilling to install the amplifier, always
confirm no parts are behind the panel and
protect all cables and important equipment
(e.g. fuel/brake lines, wiring) from damage.
CAUTION
!To ensure proper heat dissipation of the ampli-
fier, ensure the following during installation:
—Allow adequate space above the amplifier
for proper ventilation.
—Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat
or carpet.
!Protection function may activate to protect the
amplifier against overheating due to installa-
tion in locations where sufficient heat cannot
be dissipated, continuous use under high-vo-
lume conditions, etc. In such cases, the am-
plifier reduces the power output or shuts
down until it has cooled to a certain desig-
nated temperature.
!Place all cables away from hot places, such
as near the heater outlet.
!The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the car model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.
!Check all connections and systems before
final installation.
!After installing the amplifier, confirm that the
spare tire, jack and tools can be easily re-
moved.
