INSTALLATION/CONNECTION

Warning

• The unit can only be used with a 12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
• Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal before wiring and mounting.
• Do not connect the Battery wire (yellow) and Ignition wire (red) to the car chassis or Ground wire (black) to prevent a short circuit.
• To prevent short circuits:
  – Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape.
  – Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.
  – Secure the wires with cable clamps and wrap the vinyl tape around the wires that come into contact with metal parts to protect the wires.

Caution

• For safety’s sake, leave wiring and mounting to professionals. Consult the car audio dealer.
• Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal parts of this unit during and shortly after use of the unit. Metal parts such as the heat sink and enclosure become hot.
