AWARNING
•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 aspecial 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 Vbattery and
negative grounding. Before installing in
re-
creational vehicles, trucks or buses, check the
battery voltage.
•Always use afuse 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 amplifierfuse 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 eterminal of
the battery beforehand to avoid the risk of
electric shock
or short circuit during installa-
tion.
ACAUTION
•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.
QImportant (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
® LPF (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 afew
seconds as anormal 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 ahigh 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.

Before connecting the
amplifier
AWARNING
•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-
pacityof the wire is limited.
Connect male terminal of this wire to the
sys-
tem remote control terminal of the car stereo
(SYSTEM REMOTE CONTROL), The female
terminal can
be connected to the auto-anten-
na relay control terminal.
If the car stereo
lacks asystem remote control terminal. con-
nect the male terminal to the power terminal
via the ignition switch.

ACAUTION
•Never shorten any wires, the protection circuit

•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-

Before installing the amplifier
AWARNING
• To ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the manner specified. If any parts
otherthan those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be-
come loose causing the amplifierto 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 away 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-circu it.
•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.
ACAUTION
• 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 afloor mat
or carpet.
•Avoid routing wires through hot areas, such
as near the heater outlet. Heat may damage
the insulation, resulting in ashort-circuit
through the vehicle body.
• The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the car model. Secure the ampli-
fier at asufficiently rigid location.
•Firstly make temporary connections and
check to ensure the amplifier and system op-
erate properly.
•After installing the amplifier, confirm that the

1 Place the amplifier in the desired instal-
lation location.
Insert the supplied tapping screws (4 mm x
18 m m) into the screw holes and push on the
screws with ascrewdriver so they make an im-
print where the installation holes are to be lo-
cated.
2Drill 2.5 mm (1/8 inch) diameter holes
at the imprints either on the carpet or di-
rectly on the
chassis.
