About
This
Product
This product is aclass Damplifier for the
subwoofer. If both L(left) and R(right)
channels are connected to the RCA input
of
this product, output is mixed because
this product
is
amono amplifier.
A
CAUTION
•Never replace the fuse with one
of
greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use
of
an
improper fuse could result in overheating and
smoke and could cause damage to the product
and injury including burns.
•Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to tighten
screws when fastening wires to the terminal.
The
use
of
along, commercially available hexagonal
wrench can cause excessive torque to be applied
possibly resulting
in
damage to terminals and
wires.

Gain
Control
If the sound level
is
too low, even when the volume
of
the car stereo used along
with this power amplifier
is
turned up, tum gain control clockwise.
If
the sound
distorts when the volume is turned up, tum the gain control counterclockwise.
•When using with an RCA equipped car stereo (standard output
of
500 mV), set to the
NORMAL
position. When using with an
RCA
equipped Pioneer car stereo with max.
output
of
4 V or more, adjust level to match the car stereo output level.

Input
Switch
It
is
possible to input from acar stereo external output
or
acar stereo speaker output. Switch
the input switch before turning on the power. Since switching the input switch while the
power is on can cause aloud noise to be emitted from the speakers, the power is turned
off
by aprotection function. When using an external output, slide the switch to the right (RCA).
For connection instructions, see the "Connection Diagram" section. When using aspeaker
output, slide the switch to the left (SP). In this case,
it
is necessary to use the supplied speak-
er
input wire with RCA pin cord. For details, see the
"Using
the Speaker Input" section.
Bass

•
Connecting the Unit
A
CAUTION
•Disconnect the negative
(-)
terminal
of
the bat-
tery to avoid the risk
of
short-circuit and damage
to the unit.
•Secure the wiring with cable clamps
or
adhesive
tape.
To
protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape
around it where they lie against metal parts.
•
Do
not route wires where they will get hot, for
example
where the heater will blow
over
them.
If
the insulation heats up, it may become damaged,
resulting
in
ashort-circuit through the vehicle
body.
•
Make
sure that wires will not interfere with mov-
ing parts
of
the vehicle, such as the gearshift,
handbrake or seat sliding mechanism.
•Do not shorten any wires. Otherwise the protec-
tion circuit may fail to work when it should.
Never
feed power to other equipment by cutting
the insulation
of
the power supply wire to tap
from the wire. The current capacity
of
the wire
will be exceeded, causing overheating.
•
Never
replace the fuse with one
of
greater value
or
rating than the original fuse. Use
of
an improp-
er
fuse could result in overheating and smoke and
could cause damage to the product and injury
including bums.
A
CAUTION:
To
prevent
damage
and/or
injury
•Do not ground the speaker wire directly
or
con-
nect anegative
(-)
lead wire for several speakers.
•This unit
is
for vehicles with a12-volt battery and
negative grounding. Before installing it in arecre-
ational vehicle, truck or bus,
check
the battery
I,ll
voltage.
•
If
the car stereo
is
kept on for along time while
Ithe engine is at rest
or
idling, the battery may
go
Idead.
Tum
the car stereo
off
when the engine is at
Irest
or
idling.
i • If the system remote control wire
of
the amplifier
Iis connected to the power terminal through the
!ignition switch (12 VDC), the amplifier will
II
always
be
on when the ignition is
on-
regardless
of
whether the car stereo
is
on
or
off. Because
of
Ithis. the battery could go dead
if
the engine is at
Irest
or
idling.
•DO NOT connect asubwoofer with alower
impedance than specified in the
"Connecting
the
Speaker Wires" section. Amplifier damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from anon-
specified connection. The amplifier surface could
also become hot to the touch and
minor
bums
could result.
•Connect either
of
two subwoofers to the amplifi-
er; I: asubwoofer with a350 W
or
larger nomi-
nal input and an impedance 4
Q,
or
2:
asub-
woofer with a600 W
or
larger nominal input and
an impedance 2Q.
If
the nominal input and
impedance are
out
of
the above ranges, the sub-
woofer may catch fire,
emit
smoke
or
become
damaged. .
•Install and route the separately sold battery wire
as far away as possible from the
speaker
wires.
Install and route the separately sold battery wire,
ground wire, speaker wires and the amplifier as
far away as possible from the antenna, antenna
cable and tuner.

Connecting
the
Power
Terminal
oDo not connect acord having an exposed core
wire to the power terminals
of
this amplifier
(Power terminal, GND terminal, System remote
control terminal). Disconnection
or
breakage
of
the core wire can cause afire
or
short-circuit.
oSince the wire will become loose over time, it
must be periodically inspected and tightened as
necessary.
oDo not solder
or
bind the ends
of
the twisted
wIres.
oFasten while making sure to not to clamp the
insulating sheath
of
the wire.
oUse the supplied hexagonal wrench to tighten and
loosen the terminal screw
of
the amplifier.
Securely fasten the wire with the terminal screw.
However, since excessively tightening the termi-
nal screw
of
the System remote control has the
risk
of
damaging the wire, be careful not to tight-
en excessively by observing the status
of
the wire
when tightening.

Installation
A
CAUTION
•Do not install
in:
-Places
where it could injure the driver or pas-
senoers
if
the vehicle stops suddenly.
b .
-Places
where
it
may interfere with the dnver,
such as on the floor in front
of
the driver's
seat.
•Make sure that wires are not caught
in
the sliding
mechanism
of
the seats, resulting in ashort-cir-
cuit.
•Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when
drilling ahole for installation
of
the amplifier.
Protect all cables and important equipment such
as fuel lines, brake lines and electrical wiring
from damage.
•Install tapping screws
in
such away that the
screw tip does not touch any wire. This
is
impor-
tant to prevent wires from being cut by vibration
of
the car, which can result in fire.
•DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact
with liquids due to, for example, the location
where the amplifier
is
installed. Electrical shock
could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from contact
with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface
and the surface
of
any attached speakers could
become hot to the touch and minor bums could
result.
•To ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the manner specified. If any parts other
than the supplied ones are used, they may damage
internal parts
of
the amplifier, or they may
become loose causing the amplifier to shut down.
•Never replace the fuse with one
of
greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use
of
an
improp-
er fuse could result in overheating and smoke and
could cause damage to the product and injury
including bums.
A
CAUTION:
To
prevent
malfunction
and/or
injury
•To ensure proper heat dissipation
of
the amplifier,
be sure
of
the following during installation.
-Allow
adequate space above the amplifier for
proper ventilation.
-Do
not cover the amplifier with afloor mat
or carpet.
•
