• Do not install or use this amplifier by wiring
speakers rated at
2n
(or lower) in parallel to
achieve a 1
n
(or lower) bridged mode (Dia-
gram B).
Amplifier damage, smoke, and overheating
could result from improper bridging. The am-
plifier surface could also become hot to the
touch and minor burns could result.
To properly install or use a bridged mode and
achieve a
2n
load, wire two
4n
speakers in
parallel with Left® and Right
8
(Diagram A)
or use a single
2n
speaker.
In addition, refer to the speaker instruction
manual for information on the correct connec-
tion procedure.
• For any further enquiries, contact your local
authorized Pioneer dealer or customer
