Installation
This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground

audio dealers.
Prepare these before installation....

– Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.

• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.
• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating.
