Before connectingl
installing
the amplifier
AWARNING
•Handling the cord on this product or cords as-
sociated with accessories sold with the pro-
duct will expose
you to chemicals listed on
proposition
65 known to the State of California
and other governmental entities to cause can-
cer and birth defect or other reproductive
harm.
Wash hands afterhandling.
• 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.
•
The black cable is ground. When installing
this unit. make sure to connect the ground
wire first. Ensure that the ground wire is prop-
erly connected to metal parts of the car's
body. The ground wire of the one of this unit
must
be connected to the car separately with
different screws. If the screw
for the ground
wire loosens or falls out, it could result in fire,
generation of smoke or malfunction.
•Use afuse of the rating prescribed.
•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.
•Always install the amplifier
on aflat surface.
Do not install the amplifier on asurface that
is not flat or on asurface with aprotrusion.
Doing so could result
in malfunction.
•When installing the amplifier, do not allow
parts such
as extra screws to get caught be-
tween the amplifier and the automobile.
Doing so could cause malfunction.
m En
•Do not allowthis 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 amplifierand 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.
•Disconnect the negative terminal of the bat-
tery before installation.
ACAUTION
•Always keep the volume low enough to hear
outside sounds.
•Extended use of the car stereo while the en-
gine is at rest
or idling may exhaust the bat-
tery.
•Connect either of two subwoofers to the am-
plifier;
1: asubwoofer with a 350 W or larger
nominal input and
an impedance 4 n. or 2: a
subwoofer with a
600 Wor larger nominal
input and
an impedance 2 n. Ifthe nominal
input and impedance are out of the above
ranges, the subwoofer may catch fire, emit
smoke or become damaged.
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 numberon the enclosed
warranty card. [!)

@ GAIN (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 Vor 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.
® REMOTE (bass boost level remote con-
trol) jack
By connecting the Bass boost level remote
control to the jack
on the main unit, you will
be able to select a bass boost level from 0
dB, 6dB and 12 dB.
For instruction of connecting the bass boost
remote control to the amplifier,
see the Con-
nection diagram on page 7.
CD LPF (low-pass filter) cut offfrequency
control
You can select acut off frequency from 40
Hz to 240 Hz.
® INPUT (input) switch
Input from either acar stereo external out-
put (subwoofer output) or speaker output
is
possible. When using an external output
(subwoofer output), select
RCA.
For connection instructions, refer to Connec-
tion diagram on page 7,
When using aspeaker output, select SP and
use the supplied speaker input wire with
RCA pin cord, For details, refer to Connec-
tions when using the speaker input wire on
page 8.~
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.

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.
ACAUTION
•Never shorten any wires, the protection circuit
may malfunction.
•Never wire the speaker negative cable directly-
to ground.
•Never band together multiple speaker'snega-
tive cables.
•If the system remote control wire of the ampli-
fier is connected to the power terminal via the

Before installing the amplifier
AWARNING
• Do not use unauthorized parts as this may
cause malfunctions.
•
Do not install this unit where:
-it may interfere with operation of the vehi-
cle.
-it may cause injuryto apassenger
as a re-
sult of asudden stop.
•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.
•Place all cables away from moving parts, such
as the gear shift and seat rails.
•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.
•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 asufficiently 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. 0
