The input selector of this amplifier functions automatically. There-
fore, the amplifier may be used with either a car stereo with RCA
pin jacks or a Pioneer car stereo with DIN sockets. For information
about connecting a stereo, see the section entitled "When com-
bined with a car stereo with RCA pin jacks" or that entitled "When
combined with a car stereo with DIN sockets".
e When two channels (stereo) are used, the speakers should have a
minimum
rating of 200 W or more. When
a single channel
{mono) is used, the speaker should have a minimum
rating of
400 W or more. If a speaker whose rating is below that recom-
mended is used, the speaker may be damaged. The impedance of
the speakers should be between 2 and 8 ohms.
e
For detailed information concerning connections between differ-
ent components and this unit consult their respective instruction
manuals and follow those recommendations precisely.
e
When wiring connecting leads into place secure them with clam-
pers and adhesive electrician's tape. Additionally, to prevent any
damage to the insulative coating of the connecting leads, protect
them with adhesive electrician's tape wherever they may come
into contact with any sharp edges.
e
Wire all connecting leads so that they stay well clear of high-tem-
perature areas such as the heater exhaust port.
e
To operate the amplifier and car stereo properly, install the contin-
uous power supply lead (orange stripes) and the accessory power
lead (red) correctly.
If the leads are not installed correctly or are
not connected at all, the amplifier and car stereo will not work.
¢
To use a car stereo with DIN sockets, use the optional component
extension cable.
