WIRING CONNECTION

A. CONNECTING THE POWER

CAUTION:

AS A PRECAUTION, IT IS ADVISABLE TO DISCONNECT THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY BEFORE MAKING CONNECTION TO THE +12 VOLTS SUPPLY WIRING.

4 GAUGE (Thicker if planning for additional Amplifiers) wire is recommended 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 Shops.

(1) GROUND: To Vehicle Chassis

To avoid unwanted ignition noise caused by ground loops, it is essential that the Amplifier be grounded to a clean, bare, metal surface of the vehicles 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 measure, install an in-line Fuse Holder (not included) as close to the battery positive (+) terminal as possible with an amperage rating: don't to exceed total value of fuses in Amp.

(3) Remote Turn-On Input: To Power Antenna 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 +12 VOLT OUTPUT LEAD WHEN THE

RADIO IS TURNED ON, THE "REM" TERMINAL ON THE AMPLIFIER CAN BE

CONNECTED TO VEHICLE'S ACCESSORY CIRCUIT THAT IS LIVE WHEN

THE KEY IS "ON".

WARNING

Investigate the layout of your automobile thoroughly before drilling or cutting any holes. Take care when you work near the gas tanks, lines, or hydraulic lines, and electrical wiring. Don't mount this system so that the wire connections ate unprotected or are subject to pinching or damage from nearby objects.

The +12 V DC power wire must be fused at the battery positive terminal connection. Before making or breaking power connections at this system power terminals, disconnect the +12 V wire at the battery end.

Confirm your radio / cassette player and / or other equip is turned off while connecting the input jacks and speaker terminals.

If you need to replace the power fuse replace it only with a fuse identical to that supplied with the system. Using a fuse of different type or rating may result in damage to this system which isn't covered by the warranty.
