To

engage the amplifier in this mode, place the Crossover (Subwoofer) switch in the "FULL" position.

Precautions Before you drill or cut any holes, investigate your car's layout very carefully. Take care when you work near the gas tank, fuel lines, hydraulic lines and electrical wiring.

Do not operate the amplifier when it is unmounted. Attach all audio system components securely within the automobile to prevent damage, especially in an accident. Do not mount this amplifier so that the wire connections are unprotected or in a pinched condition, or likely to be damaged by nearby objects.

Before making or breaking power connections in your system, disconnect the vehicle battery. Confirm that your head unit or other equipment is turned off while connecting the input jacks and speaker terminals. If you need to replace the power fuse, only replace it with a fuse identical to that supplied with the system. Using a fuse of a different type or rating may result in damage to your system which isn't covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Troubleshooting If your amplifier is not operating properly, refer to the list below and follow the suggested procedures. Always test the speakers and check the wiring first. No output Confirm that all terminal strip connections are secure and tight.

Check both in-line and built-in fuses. Both the "+I 2v" and the "REMOTE" terminals must have +12v referenced to chassis ground. Confirm that the audio signal source (car radio, equalizer, etc.) is connected and is supplying output signal. To check if the amplifier is supplying signal, unplug the RCA cables from the signal source (but leave them plugged into the amp). Briefly tap the center pin of each of the disconnected RCA plugs with your finger. This should produce a noise (feedback) in your speakers. 112 Only one channel works Confirm that all speaker strip connections are secure and tight. Check the "BALANCELcontrol on the head unit (or other source) to verify that it is -I . apoint.
