• This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding. Before installing it in a
recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery voltage.
• To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the
 battery cable before beginning
installation.
• Refer to the owner's manual for details on connecting the power amp and other products, then make
connections correctly.
• Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape
around them where they lie against metal parts.
• Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake and
seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insulation of
the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a danger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle body.
• Don't pass the yellow lead through a hole into the engine compartment to connect to the battery. This
will damage the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous short.
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should.
• Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of this
product and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing
overheating.
• When replacing fuse, be sure to use only fuse of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.
• If this product is installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition
switch, the red lead of this product should be connected to a terminal coupled with ignition switch
ON/OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery may be drained when you are away from
the vehicle for several hours.
About the V.SEL cable
