BConnecting the external amplifiers

You can connect amplifiers to upgrade surround system in the car compartment.

Connect the amplifiers to 5.1-ch analog discrete output plugs to enjoy multi-channel source.

After you have connected the center speaker, make sure to activate the center speaker; otherwise, no sound comes out of the connected center speaker, see page 57 of the INSTRUCTIONS.

You can supply the power to the amplifiers by connecting the remote leads (blue with white stripe) of this unit and amplifiers. (To connect more than one amplifier using the remote leads, Y-connectors need to be separately purchased.)

Disconnect the speakers from the unit, and connect them to the amplifier. Leave the speaker leads of the unit unused.

CConnecting external components

You can connect external components in series as shown in the diagram below.

• All the components, adapters or signal cords need to be purchased separately.

CAUTION:

Before connecting the external components, make sure that the unit is turned off.

To use JVC CD changer, Apple iPod or JVC D. player, set “External Input” to “Changer/iPod/D. Player” (see page 59 of the INSTRUCTIONS).

To use other external components via KS-U57 or KS-U58, set “External Input” to “External” (see page 59 of the INSTRUCTIONS).
