Connection Check List - Alpine S2-A36F Manual

CONNECTION CHECK LIST

Please check your head unit for the conditions
listed below:
Remote Turn-On Lead
a. The head unit does not have a remote turn-on
or power antenna lead.
b. The head unit's power antenna lead is activated
only when the radio is on (turns off in the tape
or CD Mode).
c. The head unit's power antenna lead is logic level
output (+) 5 V, negative trigger (grounding
type), or cannot sustain (+) 12 V when
connected to other equipment in addition to
the vehicle's power antenna.
If any of the above conditions exist, the remote
turn-on lead of your S2-A36F/S2-A55V must be
connected to a switched power source (ignition)
in the vehicle. Be sure to use a 3 A fuse as close
as possible to this ignition tap. Using this
connection method, the S2-A36F/S2-A55V will
turn on and stay on as long as the ignition
switch is on.
If this is objectionable, a SPST (Single Pole,
Single Throw) switch, in addition to the 3 A fuse
mentioned above, may be installed in-line on
the S2-A36F/S2-A55V turn-on lead. This switch
will then be used to turn on (and off ) the
S2-A36F/S2-A55V. Therefore, the switch should
be mounted so that is accessible by the driver.
Make sure the switch is turned off when the
vehicle is not running. Otherwise, the amplifier
will remain on and drain the battery.
