To prevent fire caused by a short in the wiring,

battery’s positive terminal.
2CAUTION
• If sound is not output normally, immediately turn
power off and check connections.
• Be sure to turn the power off before changing the
setting of any switch.
• If the fuse blows, check wires for shorts, then
replace the fuse with one of the same rating.
• Check that no unconnected wires or connectors
are touching the car body. Do not remove
caps from unconnected wires or connectors to
prevent short circuits.
• Connect the speaker wires to appropriate speaker
connectors separately. Sharing the negative wire
of the speaker or grounding speaker wires to the
metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail.
NOTE
• Do not connect cables and leads to both RCA
cable input jacks and the speaker level input
terminals simultaneously, for this may cause
malfunction or damage.
