Installation

CAUTION

•Do not install in:

—Places where it could injure the driver or pas- sengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.

—Places where it may interfere with the driver,

such as on the floor in front of the driver’s seat.

•Make sure that wires are not caught in the sliding mechanism of the seats, resulting in a short-cir- cuit.

•Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when drilling a hole for installation of the amplifier. Protect all cables and important equipment such as fuel lines, brake lines and electrical wiring from damage.

•Install tapping screws in such a way that the screw tip does not touch any wire. This is impor- tant to prevent wires from being cut by vibration of the car, which can result in fire.

•DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact with liquids due to, for example, the location where the amplifier is installed. Electrical shock could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage, smoke, and overheating could result from contact with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface and the surface of any attached speakers could become hot to the touch and minor burns could result.

•To ensure proper installation, use the supplied parts in the manner specified. If any parts other than the supplied ones are used, they may damage internal parts of the amplifier, or they may become loose causing the amplifier to shut down.

•Never replace the fuse with one of greater value or rating than the original fuse. Use of an improp- er fuse could result in overheating and smoke and could cause damage to the product and injury including burns.

CAUTION:

To prevent malfunction and/or injury

•To ensure proper heat dissipation of the amplifier, be sure of the following during installation.

—Allow adequate space above the amplifier for proper ventilation.

—Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat or carpet.

•Do not install the amplifier on unstable places such as the spare tire board.

•The best location for installation differs with the car model and installation location. Secure the amplifier at a sufficiently rigid location.

•Make temporary connections first and check that the amplifier and the system operate properly.

•After installing the amplifier, confirm that the spare tire, jack and tools can be easily removed.

PRS-D1000M specifications

The Pioneer PRS-D1000M is a versatile and powerful car amplifier designed to enhance the audio experience in vehicles. Known for its robust performance and innovative features, this amplifier is ideal for enthusiasts seeking to elevate their sound system.

One of the main features of the PRS-D1000M is its impressive power output. It delivers up to 1000 watts of maximum power, allowing users to drive high-performance subwoofers and achieve deep, thunderous bass. With its RMS power rating of 500 watts at 2 ohms, this amplifier ensures that even the most demanding audio setups can be accommodated, making it suitable for both daily driving and competition use.

The PRS-D1000M employs Class D technology, which is crucial for efficiency and heat management. Class D amplifiers convert a higher percentage of the power drawn from the vehicle's electrical system into usable output, resulting in less heat generation and lower energy consumption. This is particularly beneficial for car audio systems, where space and power are often at a premium.

Another notable characteristic is the built-in low-pass filter, which allows users to tailor the sound by eliminating higher frequencies that can muddy the bass response. The variable frequency adjustment lets users set the cutoff point according to their specific subwoofer and listening preferences, resulting in a more refined audio experience.

The Pioneer PRS-D1000M also features a bass boost function, which lets users increase low-frequency output for a more pronounced bass response. This is especially useful for those who love bass-heavy music genres. The amplifier's compact design makes it easy to install in various locations within the vehicle, ensuring that it doesn't compromise valuable space.

Furthermore, the amplifier is equipped with RCA inputs for seamless integration with other audio components. It includes speaker-level inputs, allowing it to connect to factory audio systems without needing to replace the head unit.

In conclusion, the Pioneer PRS-D1000M is engineered for performance, efficiency, and flexibility. With its powerful output, advanced technologies, and user-friendly features, it is an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their car's audio system and enjoy a superior listening experience on the road.
