Due to the high power output of the MRP-F320/MRP- F200/MRP-T130, considerable heat is produced when the amplifier is in operation. For this reason, the amplifier should be mounted in a location which will allow for free circulation of air, such as inside the trunk. For alternate installation locations, please contact your authorized Alpine dealer.

1.Using the amplifier as a template, mark the four screw locations.

2.Make sure there are no objects behind the surface that may become damaged during drilling.

3.Drill the screw holes.

4.Position the MRP-F320/MRP-F200/MRP-T130 over the screw holes, and secure with four self- tapping screws.

NOTE:

To securely connect the ground lead, use an already installed screw on the metal part of the vehicle (marked ()). Be sure this is a good ground by checking continuity to the battery (–) terminal. As much as possible connect all equipment to the same ground point. These procedures will help eliminate noise.

3Input Gain Adjustment Control

Set the MRP-F320/MRP-F200/MRP-T130 input gain knobs to the minimum (4V) position. Using a loud cassette or preferably a CD as a source, turn up the head unit volume until it distorts. Then, reduce the volume 1 step. You can then increase amplifier gain until the sound from the speakers becomes distorted.
