DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR ST EERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS. Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc. KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BATTERIES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
ACCESSORIES • Self-Tapping Screw (M4 x 20) ......................................4 • Hexagon Wrench .............................................................. l INSTALLATION Due to the high power output of the S-A60M/S-A32F/S-A55V considerable heat is produced when the amplifier is in operation. For this reason, the amplifier should be mounted in a location which will allow for free circulation of air, such as inside the trunk.
CONNECTIONS Before making connections, be sure to turn the power off to all audio components.

0 Speaker Output Terminals Connect the Speaker Output Lead(+)/(-) using the Hexagon hole screw of the Speaker Output Terminals (0 ). • For details on how to connect, see "Cautions on wire lead connections" (page 7). Be sure to observe correct speaker output connections and polarity in relation to the other speakers in the system. Connect the positive output to the positive speaker terminal and the negative to negative.
Cautions on wire lead connections When using third-party wire cables (power supply wire), use the supplied screws to simplify the connection. Refer to the description below for the proper procedure. If you are in doubt about how to make this connection, consult your dealer. 1. Check the wire size. • For details on the wires size to be used, refer to the supplied "Cautions on Power Supply Wires Connection" and "Cautions on Power Supply Wires" (page 19), and then use the wire of the specified size.
CONNECTION CHECK LIST [I] Blue/White ~ Power Antenna ~ Please check your head unit for the conditions listed below: Remote Turn-On Lead a. The head unit does not have a remote turn-on or power antenna lead. b. The head unit's power antenna lead is activated only when the radio is on (turns off in the tape or CD Mode). c.
SWITCH SETTINGS • Before switching each Selector Switch, turn off the power and insert a small screwdriver, etc., perpendicularly to the Switch.
