Connecting the Units
WARNING
•For traffic safety and to maintain safe driving conditions, keep the volume low enough so that you can still hear normal traffic sound.
•Check the connections of the power supply and speakers if the fuse of the battery wire or the amplifier fuse blows. Detect the cause and solve the problem, then replace the fuse with another one of the same size and rating.
•To prevent malfunction of the amplifier and speak- ers, the protective circuit will cut the power supply to the amplifier (sound will stop) when an abnor- mal condition occurs. In such a case, switch the power to the system OFF and check the connection of the power supply and speakers. Detect the cause and solve the problem.
•Contact the dealer if you cannot detect the cause.
•To prevent an electric shock or
•Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when drilling a hole for installation of this unit. Be sure to protect all cables and important equipment such as fuel lines, brake lines and the electrical wiring from damage.
CAUTION

•To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the ≠ battery cable before beginning installation.
•Refer to the owner’s manual for details on con- necting the power amp and other units, then make connections correctly.
•Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape around them where they lie against metal parts.
•Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake, and seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insula- tion of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a dan- ger of the wiring
•Don’t pass the clear/red lead through a hole into the engine compartment to connect to the battery. This will damage the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous short.
•Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should.
54
•Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating.
•When replacing a fuse, be sure to use only fuses of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.
•The clear/black lead is ground. Please ground this lead separately from the ground of
If you ground the products together and the ground becomes detached, there is a risk of damage to the products or fire.
•When this product’s source is switched ON, a con- trol signal is output through the blue/white lead. Connect to an external power amp’s system remote control (max. 300 mA 12 V DC).
•When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the blue/white lead to the amp’s power terminal.
•To prevent incorrect connection, the input side of the
•Cords for this product and those for other prod- ucts may be different colors even if they have the same function. When connecting this prod- uct to another product, refer to the supplied manuals of both products and connect cords that have the same function.
