Connecting the external amplifiers
You can connect amplifiers to upgrade your car stereo system.
• Connect the remote lead (blue with white stripe) to the remote lead of the other equipment so that it can be controlled through this unit.
• For amplifier only:
– After you have connected the center speaker, make sure to activate the center speaker; otherwise, no sound comes out of the connected center speaker, see page 49 of the INSTRUCTIONS.
– Disconnect the speakers from this unit, connect them to the amplifier. Leave the speaker leads of this unit unused.
– You can switch off the built-in amplifier and send the audio signals only to the external amplifier(s) to get clear sounds and to prevent internal heat buildup. See page 51 of the INSTRUCTIONS (separate
volume).
