8. Install a Preamp Output Harness for external amplifiers by plugging the RCA cables into the
corresponding extension RCAs that feed the input of the amplifiers. Be sure to route the signal
cables away from any high current wires to prevent coupling noise from radiated electrical
fields into the audio signal. The FRONT RCAs connect to the Front inputs on the amplifier. The
REAR RCAs connect to the Rear inputs on the amplifier.
9. Connect the Antenna by plugging the antenna cable into the connector located at the rear of the
source unit. Be sure the antenna is securely grounded to the vehicle for proper radio reception.
