Notes
The amplifier cannot be installed in the car using a 24 V battery.
The amplifier cannot be installed in the car of the negative grounding
type.
See to it that the amplifier's output does not exceed the speaker's
(total) permissible input.
Ensure that the amplifier's output impedance matches the speaker's
total impedance. The amplifiermay fail if they are not matched.
Connectthepowersupply and speaker as follows:
The car amplifiercan be mounted in the dashboard or center console of
the car. (The mounting method differs depending on the type of the
car.) It can also be mounted under the dashboard using the supplied
mounting kit.
When using the supplied mounting kit, attach the mounting bracket to
the dashboard first, and then the amplifier to the bracket.
Note: To avoid the amplifier's failure, do not use devices other than the
supplied mounting kit when installing.
