•  Mounting and wiring this product 

requires skills and experience. For safety’s 
sake, 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.

•  Make sure that all wire connections are 

securely made by inserting jacks until they 
lock completely.

•  If your vehicle’s ignition does not have 

an ACC position, or if the ignition wire 
is connected to a power source with 
constant voltage such as a battery wire, 
the power will not be linked with the 
ignition (i.e., it will not turn on and off 
along with the ignition). If you want to 
link the unit’s power with the ignition, 
connect the ignition wire to a power 
source that can be turned on and off with 
the ignition key.

•  Use a commercially available conversion 

connector if the connector does not fit in 
the vehicle connector.

•  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.
