Before Using This Product

CAUTION

Never replace the fuse with one of greater value or rating than the original fuse. Use of an improper fuse could result in overheating and smoke and could cause damage to the product and injury including burns.

Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to tight- en screws when fastening wires to the termi- nal. The use of a long, commercially avail- able hexagonal wrench can cause excessive torque to be applied possibly resulting in damage to terminals and wires.

4 Ohm Bridged Mode

2 Ohm Bridged Mode

Do NOT install or use your Pioneer ampli- fier by wiring speakers rated at 4 Ohm (or lower) in parallel to achieve a 2 Ohm (or lower) bridged mode (Diagram B). Amplifier damage, smoke, and overheat- ing could result from improper bridging. The amplifier surface could also become hot to the touch and minor burns could result.

To properly install or use a bridged mode for a two-channel amplifier and achieve a

4 load, wire two 8 speakers in parallel with Left + and Right – (Diagram A) or use a single 4 speaker. For a four-chan- nel amplifier, follow the speaker output connection diagram for bridging as shown on the back of your amplifier, and wire two 8 speakers in parallel to achieve a 4

load or use a single 4 speaker per channel.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your local authorized Pioneer dealer or call Pioneer customer service.
