Clarion dealer to clean or service the unit.
WIRING PRECAUTIONS
Read all wiring precautions. If you are not sure of the connections, contact your
authorized Clarion dealer.
1. This unit operates on automotive 12V negative ground power source and
requires additional mobile audio components for proper operation.
2. Disconnect the negative (-) lead of the battery before making any power
connections.
3. A good chassis ground connection is critical to the performance of your Clarion
equalizer. Use the shortest ground wire possible and securely connect to the car
chassis along with the source unit ground to minimize resistance and avoid noise
problems.
4. Extra cable can cause signal loss and act as an "antenna" for noise. Use only
high quality RCA cables that are no longer than necessary to make a direct connec-
tion with the source unit and amplifiers.
5. If you are using a source unit, without a remote turn-on lead, the EQS744 can be
turned on with a switched accessory lead. You can find this accessory power source
in the factory harness at the back of the radio. It is the lead that turns on and off
with the key.
