Warning
■ The unit can only be installed in a car with a
12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
■ 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.
■ Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal
and make all electrical connections before
installing the unit.
■ 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.
■ Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s
chassis again after installation.
■ 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.
Caution
■ 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, as with battery
wires, the battery may die.
■ Install this unit in the console of your
vehicle. Make sure the faceplate will not hit
the lid of the console (if any) when closing
and opening.
■ 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.
■ If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
are not touching to cause a short circuit,
then replace the old fuse with one that has
the same rating.
■ 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.
