To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
•  Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.

Notes:
•  Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.
•  If noise is a problem...
  This unit incorporates a noise filter in the power circuit. However, with some vehicles, clicking or other unwanted noise may occur. If this happens, connect the unit’s rear ground terminal to the 

car’s chassis using shorter and thicker cords, such as copper braiding or gauge wire. If noise still persists, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

•  It is recommended to connect to the speakers with maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 

Ω to 8 Ω). If the maximum power is less than 

50 W, change “AMP GAIN” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 21 of the INSTRUCTIONS).

•  The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.
