SettingA T tle (English)the Unit

Setting the Gain properly

• This unit is equipped with a protective function to

prevent malfunction of the unit itself and speakers

from too much output, improper use or improper

connection.

Relationship between the gain of the

amplifier and the output power of the

head unit

• When outputting sound at high volume etc., this

function will cut off the sound output in a few

seconds. But this is not a malfunction. When you

turn down the volume of the head unit the sound

output will be restored.

• If sound output is cut, the gain control of this unit

may be improperly set. To ensure continuous

sound output at increased volume of the head unit,

set the gain control of the amplifier to a proper

position according to the preout maximum output

level of the head unit. There is no need to

decrease the volume of the head unit and too

much output is controlled.

• If you decrease the volume of the head unit and

set the gain control of the amplifier to the proper

position but still the sound cuts out from time to

time, contact the nearest authorized PIONEER

Service Station.
