Solderless Terminal Connections

• Do not connect a cord having an exposed core

wire to the power terminals of this amplifier
(Power terminal, GND terminal, System remote
control terminal). Disconnection or breakage of
the core wire can cause a fire or short-circuit.

• Since the wire will become loose over time, it

must be periodically inspected and tightened as
necessary.

• Do not solder or bind the ends of the twisted

wires.

• Fasten while making sure to not to clamp the

insulating sheath of the wire.

• Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to tighten and

loosen the terminal screw of the amplifier.
Securely fasten the wire with the terminal screw.
However, since excessively tightening the termi-
nal screw of the System remote control has the
risk of damaging the wire, be careful not to tight-
en excessively by observing the status of the wire
when tightening.

Connecting the Power Terminal

• We recommend that you use the special red bat-

tery and ground wire [RD-228], which is sold
separately. Connect the battery wire directly to
the car battery positive terminal (+) and the
ground wire to the car body.

• Recommended wires size (AWG: American Wire

Gauge) is as follows. The battery wire and the
ground wire must be same size.

• Use a 10 AWG to 20 AWG wire for the system

remote control wire.

1. Pass the battery wire from the

engine compartment to the interior
of the vehicle.

• After making all other connections to the

amplifier, connect the battery wire terminal
of the amplifier to the positive (+) terminal of
the battery.

2. Connect the wires to the terminal.

• Fix the wires securely with the terminal

screws.

WARNING

Failure to securely fasten the battery wire to the ter-
minal using the terminal screws could cause the ter-
minal area to overheat and could result in damage
and injury including minor burns.
