Solderless Terminal Connections

• Do not connect a cord having an exposed core

wire to the power terminals of this amplifier

(Power terminal, GND terminal, System remote

control terminal). Disconnection or breakage of

the core wire can cause a fire or short-circuit.

• Since the wire will become loose over time, it

must be periodically inspected and tightened as

necessary.

• Do not solder or bind the ends of the twisted

wires.

• Fasten while making sure to not to clamp the

insulating sheath of the wire.

1.Pass the battery wire from the engine compartment to the interior of the vehicle.

After making all other connections to the amplifier, connect the battery wire terminal of the amplifier to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.

• Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to tighten and

loosen the terminal screw of the amplifier.

Securely fasten the wire with the terminal screw.

However, since excessively tightening the termi-

nal screw of the System remote control has the

risk of damaging the wire, be careful not to tight-

en excessively by observing the status of the wire

when tightening.

Connecting the Power Terminal

We recommend that you use the special red bat- tery and ground wire [RD-228], which is sold separately. Connect the battery wire directly to the car battery positive terminal (+) and the ground wire to the car body.

Recommended wires size (AWG: American Wire Gauge) is as follows. The battery wire and the ground wire must be same size.

Use a 10 AWG to 20 AWG wire for the system remote control wire.
