CONNECTING THE POWER (Fig.1)

CAUTION:

AS A PRECAUTION, DISCONNECT THE POWER WIRE FROM THE BATTERY WHILE MAKING THE POWER AND GROUND CONNECTIONS TO THE AMPLIFIER.

4/8 GAUGE(Thicker if planning for additional Amplifiers) wire is recommended for both the power and ground wires. 12 Gauge, for the remote turn-on wire. Both types are available at most Mobile Audio Dealers or Installation Shop.

(1)Ground : To Vehicle Chassis

To avoid unwanted ignition noise caused by ground loop, it is essential that the

Amplifier be grounded to a clean, bare, metal surface of the vehicle's Chassis

NOTE :

GROUND WIRE SHOULD NOT BE EXTENDED MORE THAN 3 FT. (1 METER).

(2)+12 Volt(Fused) Constant Power: To Battery (+)

Due to the power requirements of the Amplifier, this connection should be made directly to the positive (+) terminal of battery. For safety measures, install an in-line Fuse Holder (not included) as close to the battery positive (+) terminal as possible with an ampere rating; not to exceed total value of fuses in Amp.

(3)Remote Turn-On Input: To remote turn-on output of Car Stereo

This Amplifier is turned "ON" remotely when the vehicle's stereo is turned "ON".

NOTE :

IF YOUR RADIO DOES NOT HAVE A +12 VOLT OUTPUT LEAD WHEN THE RADIO IS TURNED ON, THE "REMOTE" TERMINAL ON THE AMPLIFIER CAN BE CONNECTED TO VEHICLE'S ACCESSORY CIRCUIT THAT IS LIVE WHEN THE KEY IS "ON".
