NOTE:

Be sure to follow specific instructions included with your amplifier installation kit

(not included with this amplifier). The information below should be used as a general

guideline only.

Power Wire (+12V)

•Disconnectnegativebatteryterminalbeforeproceeding.Consultaqualified

technician for instructions if you are unsure.

•Planwireroutingbeforecuttinganywirestolength.Beginbyroutingthepower

+12Vwirefromthebatterytotheamplifierlocation.Useagrommetwhenrunning

wiresthroughthefirewallormetalopenings.Avoidrunningthepowerwirenear

existingvehiclewiringtopreventinducednoisefromenteringtheaudiosystem.

•Useextremecautionwhendrillingholestoavoiddamagingfuellinesorexisting

vehiclewiring.

•The+12VwireMUSTbefusedwithin18"ofthebatteryforprotectionofthevehicle’s

electrical system.

Ground Wire (GND)

•Theamplifiergroundwireshouldbeasshortaspossible(nomorethan36"or

1meter).Chooseacleanunpaintedsectionofmetalorthevehiclechassiswhen

attachingthegroundconnection.Besuretocleantheareaofanydirtorgrease.

Remote Turn-on Wire (REM)

•Theremoteturn-onwireconnectstotheheadunit'samplifierturn-onleador

powerantennaoutput.

Speaker Wires

•Chooseadequategaugespeakerwiredependingonyourexactamplifier/speaker

combination.Besuretoobservepolaritywhenconnecting.

•Donotgroundanyspeakerwiresorconnectanyspeakerwirestogether.

Input Signal

•Theamplifier'sinputsignalconnectstotheheadunit'slowlevel(RCA)orhighlevel

(speakerwire)outputs.

•Lowlevelinputsignalsdeliverthebestperformance.Ifunavailable,usethehigh

levelinputs-wheninterfacingwithfactoryheadunitforinstance.

CAUTION

•Donotusebothlowandhighlevelinputsatthesametime.Connectonlyoneorthe

other.

•Keeplowlevelinputsawayfromanypowerwirestoavoidenginenoise.

•Neverrunanywiresunderneathoroutsidethevehicle.
