Quick Start Guide

Before installation of this unit, please 
note the following precautions.

• 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.

• 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.

NOTES
• 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 faceplate 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 (P.27) to 

decrease the internal temperature. Do 

not mount the unit in a place where 

the cooling fan of the unit are 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.

• Reception may drop if there are metal 

objects near the Bluetooth antenna.
