sound

can

be

Dear

Custener:

Selecting

fine

audio

equipment

such

as

the

unit

you’ve

just

purchased

is

only

the

start

of

your

musical

enjoyment.

Now

it’s

time

to

consider

how

you

can

maximize

the

fun

and

excitement

your

equipment

offers.

This

manufacturer

and

the

Electronic

Industries

Association’s

Consumer

Electronics

Group

want

you

to

get

the

most

out

of

your

equipment

by

playing

it

ata

safe

level.

One

that

lets

the

sound

come

through

loud

and

clear

without

annoying

blaring

or

distortion—and,

most

importantly,

without

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.

To

establish

a

safe

level:

®

Start

your

volume

control

at

a

low

setting.

®

Slowly

increase

the

sound

until

you

can

hear

it

comfortably

and

clearly,

and

without

distortion.

Once

you

have

established

a

comfortable

sound

level:

®

Set

the

dial

and

leave

it

there.

Taking

a

minute

to

do

this

now

will

help

to

prevent

hearing

damage

or

loss

in

the

future.

After

all,

we

want

you

listening

for

a

lifetime.

We

Want

You

Listening

For

A

Lifetime

Used

wisely,

your

new

sound

equipment

will

provide

a

lifetime

of

fun

and

enjoyment.

Since

hearing

damage

from

loud

noise

is

often

undetectable

until

it

is

too

late,

this

manufacturer

and

the

Electronic

Industries

Association’s

Consumer

Electronics

Group

recommend

you

avoid

prolonged

exposure

to

excessive

noise.

This

list

of

sound

levels

is

included

for

your

protection.

WARNING

To

prevent

electric

shock:

+

Do

not

touch

the

amplifier

with

wet

hands.

Otherwise

you

may

get

electric

shock.

Also,

do

not

touch

the

amplifier

when

it

is

wet.

Use

moderate

volume

while

driving:

+

For

traffic

safety

and

to

maintain

safe

driving

condition,

keep

the

volume

low

enough

so

that

you

can

still

hear

normal

traffic

sound.

High

temperature

of

the

RS-A1:

+

The

RS-A1

will

remain

hot

(176

degrees

Fahrenheit

or

higher)

during

operation

of

the

QDR

System

and

until

approximately

10

minutes

after

use.

Therefore:

—

Do

not

touch

the

amplifier

with

hands

to

avoid

burns.

—

Do

not

place

objects

susceptible

to

heat

{e.g.

vinyl

products)

near

the

amplifier

to

avoid

deformation

of

such

objects.

—

To

ensure

proper

heat

dissipation,

never

place

objects

on

or

around

the

amplifier.

For

safe

operation:

+

To

prevent

malfunction

and

accidents,

check

the

connections

of

the

power

supply

and

speakers

if

the

fuse-of

the

special

red

battery

lead

or

the

amplifier

blows.

Detect

the

cause

and

solve

the

probiem,

then

replace

the

fuse

with

another

one

of

the

same

size

and

rat-

ing.

(The

fuse

of

the

special

red

battery

lead

has

a

rating

of

30

A

for

both

the

RS-A1

and

the

RS-A2.

The

fuse

of

the

amplifier

has

a

rating

of

20

A

for

the

RS-A1,

and

30

A

for

the

RS-A2.}

i

+

To

prevent

malfunction

to

the

amplifier

and

speakers,

the

protective

circuit

will

cut

the

power

supply

to

the

amplifier

(sound

will

stop)

when

an

abnormal

condition

occurs.

In

such

a

case,

switch

the

power

of

the

system

OFF,

check

connection

of

the

power

supply

and

speakers.

Detect

the

cause

and

solve

the

problem.

+

Contact

with

your

dealer

if

you

cannot

detect

the

cause.

Precautions

for

connection

and

instal-

lation:

+

To

prevent

electric

shock

or

short-circuit

dur-

ing

connection

and

installation,

be

sure

to

disconnect

the

negative

(-)

terminal

of

the

battery

beforehand.

+

Be

sure

to

use

the

special

red

battery

lead

supplied

with

the

amplifier

and

connect

directly

to

the

battery.

Use

the

supplied

black

ground

lead

and

connect

to

the

vehicle

body.

(The

supplied

special

red

battery

and

ground

leads

are

designed

so

that

the

ampli-

fier

can

be

connected

safely.}

+

Confirm

that

no

parts

are

behind

the

panel

when

drilling

a

hole

for

installation

of

the

amplifier.

Be

sure

to

protect

all

cables

and

important

equipment

such

as

fuel

pipes,

brake

pipes

and

power

supply

harness

from

damage.

+

To

prevent

electric

shock,

do

not

install

the

amplifier

to

places

where

it

might

get

in

con-

tact

with

liquids.

*

The

power

consumption

of

the

RS-A1

is

very

high.

To

avoid

overload

to

the

battery,

do

not

connect

more

than

two

RS-Ai

amplifiers

to

an

ODR

System.

+

To

ensure

proper

heat

dissipation

of

the

amplifier,

take

care

of

the

following

during

installation.

—

Allow

adequate

space

on

and

around

the

amplifier

for

proper

ventilation.

Particularly,

do

not

block

the

diffuser

of

the

cooling

fan

located

on

the

top

of

the

amplifier.

—

Do

not

cover

the

amplifier

with

a

floor

mat

or

carpet.

@

To

prevent

overload

to

the

battery

+

Do

not

use

the

ODR

System

while

the

car

engine

is

stopped

or

during

idling

of

more

than

5

minutes.

(Switch

the

power

of

the

system

OFF.}

+

Do

not

use

the

ODR

System

when

the

battery

is

low.

The

RS-A1

is

a

sound-quality-oriented

“Pure

Class

A”

amplifier.

Therefore,

the

power

consumption

will

be

approximately

5

A

at

low

volume.

To

prevent

over-

load

to

the

battery,

do

not

use

the

ODR

System

(switch

the

power

of

the

sys-

tem

OFF)

under

the

following

conditions

during

which

power

consumption

of

the

entire

car

is

high.

Example

1:

Two

RS-A1

amplifiers

are

used

and

you

are

in

a

traffic

jam,

driving

at

night,

and

the

rear

window

defogger

is

ON.

Example

2:

Two

RS-A1

amplifiers

are

used

and

you

are

in

a

traffic

jam,

driving

at

night,

and

the

air

conditioner

is

used

at

high

level.

Example

3:

Two

RS-A1

amplifiers

are

used

and

you

are

in

a

traffic

jam,

driving

at

night,

and

using

an

accessory

with

high

power

consumption.

>

The

ODR

System

Control

Center

checks

the

supply

voltage

from

the

battery.

A

warning

message

“LOW

BATTERY”

will

be

displayed

if

the

voltage

drops

below

approximately

11

V

for

more

than

10

seconds.

In

such

a

case,

switch

the

ODR

System

OFF

until

the

bat-

tery

is

fully

charged.

If

the

system

continues
