•The black cable is ground. When
installing this unit or power amp (sold
separately), make sure to connect the
ground wire first. Ensure that the ground
wire is properly connected to metal parts
of the car’s body. The ground wire of the
power amp and the one of this unit or
any other device 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.
Important
•When installing this unit in a vehicle
without an ACC (accessory) position on
the ignition switch, failure to connect the
red cable to the terminal that detects
operation of the ignition key may result
in battery drain.
•Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and
negative grounding only. Failure to do so
may result in a fire or malfunction.
•To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or
malfunction, be sure to follow the
directions below.
– Disconnect the negative terminal of the
battery before installation.
– Secure the wiring with cable clamps or
adhesive tape. Wrap adhesive tape
around wiring that comes into contact
with metal parts to protect the wiring.
– Place all cables away from moving parts,
such as the shift lever and seat rails.
– Place all cables away from hot places,
such as near the heater outlet.
