Installation
 
Ñ Before Installation
Before installation of this unit, please note the 
following precautions.
#WARNINGS
•  If you connect the ignition wire (red) and the 
battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis (ground), you 
may cause a short circuit, that in turn may start a fire. 
Always connect those wires to the power source 
running through the fuse box.
•  Do not cut out the fuse from the ignition wire (red) 
and the battery wire (yellow). The power supply 
must be connected to the wires via the fuse.
#CAUTION
•  Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. 
Do not touch the metal part of this unit during and 
shortly after the use of the unit. Metal part such as 
the heat sink and enclosure become hot.
 
NOTE
•  Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and 
experience. For best safety, leave the mounting and 
wiring work to professionals.
•  Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC 
power supply.
•  Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct 
sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid 
places with too much dust or the possibility of water 
splashing.
•  Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws 
provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could 
damage the unit.
•  If the power is not turned ON (“PROTECT” is displayed), 
the speaker wire may have a short-circuit or touched 
the chassis of the vehicle and the protection function 
may have been activated. Therefore, the speaker wire 
should be checked.
•  If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC position, 
connect the ignition wires to a power source that 
can be turned on and off with the ignition key. If you 
connect the ignition wire to a power source with a 
constant voltage supply, such as with battery wires, 
the battery may be drained.
•  If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so 
that the front panel will not hit the lid when closing 
and opening.
•  If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires aren’t 
touching to cause a short circuit, then replace the old 
fuse with one with the same rating.
•  Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other 
similar material. To prevent a short circuit, do not 
remove the caps on the ends of the unconnected 
wires or the terminals.
•  Connect the speaker wires correctly to the terminals to 
which they correspond. The unit may be damaged or 
fail to work if you share the 
¤ wires or ground them to 
any metal part in the car.
•  When only two speakers are being connected to 
the system, connect the connectors either to both 
the front output terminals or to both the rear output 
terminals (do not mix front and rear). For example, 
if you connect the 
¢ connector of the left speaker 
to a front output terminal, do not connect the 
¤ 
connector to a rear output terminal.
•  After the unit is installed, check whether the brake 
lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working 
properly.
•  Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or 
less.
•  This unit has the cooling fan to decrease the internal 
temperature. Do not mount the unit in a place where 
the cooling fan of the unit is blocked. Blocking these 
openings will inhibit the cooling of the internal 
temperature and result in malfunction.

•  Do not press hard on the panel surface when installing 
the unit to the vehicle. Otherwise scars, damage, or 
failure may result.
