PRECAUTIONS AND MAINTENANCE
.1.This unit is designed for negative ground operation only. The equipment can
be used safely, if the negative terminal of the battery is connected to the
vehicle metal work.
2.Do not use speakers of impedance less than 4 ohms; and allow the speaker
wires to be shorted together when the unit is switched on.
Otherwise it may overload or burn out the power amplifier stage.
3.If the car interior is extremely hot, as after being parked in the sun, do not use
