OPERATION

TURNING ON THE AMPLIFIER

The amplifier automatically turns on whenever you turn your vehicle’s ignition switch to ACC or ON. POWER lights when the amplifier is operating.

SETTING THE LEVEL CONTROL

For the best performance, you can adjust the level of audio signals that enter the amplifier by following these steps.

Cautions:

When the amplifier’s internal temperature reaches 202×F, the automatic thermal protection system lowers the amplifier’s output power until it cools down.

The sound distorts if any output channel shorts. Turn off the amplifier and try to locate the short.

To prevent draining the vehicle’s battery, do not operate the amplifier using the ignition switch’s ACC position for too long after turning off the vehicle’s ignition.

1. Turn both LEVEL MIN/MAX controls fully counterclockwise to MIN.

Note: The right level control adjusts the inputs to CH1 and CH2 (normally the front) and the left level control adjusts the inputs to CH3 and CH4 (nor- mally the rear).
