Before connecting/
installing the amplifier
WARNING
!Handling the cord on this product or cords as-
sociated with accessories sold with the pro-
duct may expose you to chemicals listed on
proposition 65 known to the State of California
and other governmental entities to cause can-
cer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.
!The use of a special red battery and ground
wire RD-223, available separately, is recom-
mended. Connect the battery wire directly to
the car battery positive terminal +and the
ground wire to the car body.
!This unit is for vehicles with a 12 V battery and
negative grounding. Before installing in re-
creational vehicles, trucks or buses, check the
battery voltage.
!Always use a fuse of the rating prescribed.
The use of an improper fuse could result in
overheating and smoke, damage to the pro-
duct and injury, including burns.
!Check the connections of the power supply
and speakers if the fuse of the separately sold
battery wire or the amplifier fuse blows. Deter-
mine and resolve the cause, then replace the
fuse with identical equivalent.
!Do not allow this unit to come into contact
with liquids. Electrical shock could result.
Also, damage to this unit, smoke, and over-
heating could result from contact with liquids.
The surfaces of the amplifier and any attached
speakers may also heat up and cause minor
burns.
!In the event of any abnormality, the power
supply to the amplifier is cut off to prevent
equipment malfunction. If this occurs, switch
the system power OFF and check the power
supply and speaker connections. If you are un-
able to determine the cause, please contact
your dealer.
!Always disconnect the negative *terminal of
the battery beforehand to avoid the risk of
electric shock or short circuit during installa-
tion.
CAUTION
!Always keep the volume low enough so that
you can hear sounds from outside the vehicle.
!Extended use of the car stereo while the en-
gine is at rest or idling may exhaust the bat-
tery.
Important (Serial number)
The serial number is located on the bottom of
this unit. For your own security and convenience,
be sure to record this number on the enclosed
warranty card.

What’s what
Front side
Rear side
To adjust the switch, use a flathead screwdri-
ver if needed.
1Power indicator
The power indicator lights up to indicate
power ON.
2BASS BOOST (bass boost level control)
switch
You can select a bass boost level from 0 dB,
6 dB and 12 dB.
3GAIN (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 max.
output of 4 V or more, adjust level to
match that of the car stereo output.
!If you hear too much noise when using
the speaker input terminals, turn the
gain control to higher level.
4LPF (low-pass filter) switch
Switch the settings based on the connected
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.
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.
!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.

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.

high volume using amplifier gain
control
Signal waveform distorted with high output, if
you raise the gain of the amplifier the power
changes only slightly.

Before connecting the
amplifier
WARNING
!Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhe-
sive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap sections
in contact with metal parts in adhesive tape.
!Never cut the insulation of the power supply
to feed power to other equipment. Current ca-
pacity of the wire is limited.
CAUTION
!Never shorten any wires, the protection circuit
may malfunction.
!Never ground speaker wire directly or band to-
gether multiple speakers’negative (*) lead
wires.
!If the system remote control wire of the ampli-
fier is connected to the power terminal via the
ignition switch (12 V DC), the amplifier will re-
main on with the ignition whether the car
stereo is on or off, which may exhaust battery
if the engine is at rest or idling.

!Install and route the separately sold battery
wire as far as possible from the speaker wires.
Install and route the separately sold battery
wire, ground wire, speaker wires and the am-
plifier as far away as possible from the anten-
na, antenna cable and tuner.
About bridged mode
Speaker impedance is max. 4 W, please carefully
check. Improper connection to the amplifier may
result in malfunction or personal injury due to
burns from overheating.
For bridged mode for a two-channel amplifier,
with a 4 Wload, either wire two 8 Wspeakers in
parallel, Left +and Right *(Diagram A) or use a
single 4 Wspeaker. For other amplifiers, please
follow the speaker output connection diagram for
bridging shown on rear: two 8 Wspeakers in par-
allel for a 4 Wload or a single 4 Wspeaker per
channel.
For any further enquiries, contact your local
authorized Pioneer dealer or customer service.
About suitable
specification of speaker
Ensure speakers conform to the following
standards, otherwise there is a risk of fire,
smoke or damage. Speaker impedance is 2 W
to 8 Wfor stereo connection, or 4 Wto 8 Wfor
monaural and other bridge connection.

If the battery wire is not securely fixed to the term-
inal using the terminal screws, there is a risk of
overheating, malfunction and injury, including
minor burns.

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 are not caught in the
sliding mechanism of the seats, resulting in a
short-circuit.
!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.
!Avoid routing wires through hot areas, such
as near the heater outlet. Heat may damage
the insulation, resulting in a short-circuit
through the vehicle body.
!The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the car model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.
!Firstly make temporary connections and
check to ensure the amplifier and system op-
erate properly.
!After installing the amplifier, confirm that the
spare tire, jack and tools can be easily re-
moved.
Example of installation on
the floor mat or chassis
1 Place the amplifier in the desired instal-
lation location.
Insert the supplied tapping screws (4 mm ×
18 mm) into the screw holes and push on the
screws with a screwdriver so they make an im-
print where the installation holes are to be lo-
cated.
2 Drill 2.5 mm (1/8 inch) diameter holes
at the imprints either on the carpet or di-
rectly on the chassis.
3 Install the amplifier with the use of
supplied tapping screws (4 mm × 18 mm).
