Important notes

1. Grounding
   Make sure that the black wire on the wiring harness is connected to a good ground point on the boat. If the chassis of the boat is used as a grounding point, make sure that the surface is scraped clean of paint before attaching the wire to it. It is preferable to connect the black ground wire directly to negative terminal (-) of the boat battery.

2. Warning: polarity.
   This model is only suitable for use in boats which have a negative ground system, e. g. : the negative terminal of the boat battery is connected to the chassis.
   

3. Connecting the Speakers and Power Cables
   Before you wire your system, disconnect your boat battery’s positive (+) cable. This helps prevent damage in case of a short. When you complete the wiring,
   reconnect the battery cable and test your marine stereo. When connecting your marine stereo’s black ground wire, be sure to connect the wire to a metal part of your boat or preferably to the negative (-) terminal of the boat battery.
   This radio contains four separate power amplifiers. To prevent possible damage to these amplifiers please ensure the following:
   i) The boat chassis is not used as a loudspeaker ground(-).
   ii) Front and rear loudspeaker connecting wires are not joined together.
   iii) Any wires not used when completing a two speaker installation are fully insulated.
   iv) The memory wire (yellow) is connected to a permanent + 12V supply.
   v) The power wire (red) is connected via the ignition switch of the boat.

4. Reset Function
   A microprocessor reset function has been provided to facilitate manual resetting of the internal microprocessor. If you are faced with a malfunction during the operation, press and hold MODE and BD/FN button simultaneously for about 3 seconds to reset the unit.
   Note: It will be necessary to re-enter the radio preset memories and other personal settings as these will have been erased when the microprocessor was reset. After resetting the player, ensure all functions are operation correctly.

Mounting the Black Box

1. Precautions
   Choose the mounting location carefully so that the unit will not interfere with the normal driving functions of the boat.
   Avoid installing the unit where it would be subject to high temperature, such as from direct sunlight or hot air, or where it would be subject to dust, dirt or excessive vibration. Use only the supplied mounting hardware for a safe and secure installation.
