without air circulation (e.g. spare wheel recess or below the vehicle carpeting). We recommend the

Otherwise interferences may occur.

- Ensure the accessibility of the fuse and the operating elements after installation.

consult an expert to install the system, particularly if you want to install several loudspeakers.

POWER SUPPLY AND TURN-ON-CONNECTION

INTERCONNECTION

ATTENTION: Before you start with the installation, disconnect the ground connection from the vehicle’s

battery in order to prevent short circuits.

Thepowerwiringwhichisusuallyinstalledinon-boardcarnetworksisnotsufcientforapoweramplier‘s

demands.MakesurethatthepowerwirestoGNDandtothe+12Vterminalhasbeensufcientlyspecied.A

cable crosssection of at least 10 mm

mustbeusedtoconnectthebatterytotheamplier‘sterminals.

FirstconnecttheGNDterminaloftheampliertoanappropriategroundconnectionatthechassis.Toensurea

good connection, residue dirt and dust from the connection point. A loose connection may cause malfunctions

or interferences noise and distortion.

Thenconnect  the+12 V terminalof the amplierwith the batteryby using anappropriate cable including

an in-line fuse. This fuse should be located very close to the battery; for safety reasons not more than 30

cm away. Only insert the fuse when the installation, including the connection of the loudspeakers, has been

accomplished.

Thenconnecttheremoteturn-on-wirefromtheheadunitwiththeamplier‘sREMOTEterminal.Acablewitha

cross-section of 0.5 mm

is adequate.

LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS

- The total impedance must not be lower than 2 ohms.

- Never connect loudspeaker cables with the ground of the chassis or the +12 V supply voltage.

Iftheamplierisoperatedwithatoolowimpedanceorincorrectlyused,theentiresoundsystem

may be damaged. This means a warranty void in such cases.
