Before Installation

2WARNING
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and
the battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis
(ground), you may cause a short circuit,
that in turn may start a fire. Always connect
those wires to the power source running
through the fuse box.

Mounting and wiring this product
requires skills and experience. For safety's
sake, leave the mounting and wiring work
to professionals.
Make sure to ground the unit to a
negative 12V DC power supply.
Do not install the unit in a spot exposed
to direct sunlight or excessive heat or
humidity. Also avoid places with too
much dust or the possibility of water
splashing.
Do not use your own screws. Use only
the supplied screws. Using wrong screws,
could damage the unit.
If the power is not turned ON ("Protect"
is displayed), the speaker wire may have
a short-circuit or touched the chassis of
the vehicle and the protection function
may have been activated. Therefore, the
speaker wire should be checked.
If your car's ignition key switch does
not have an ACC position, connect the
ignition wires to a power source that can
be turned on and off with the ignition
key. If you connect the ignition wires to
a constant-voltage power source, as with
battery wires, the battery may die.
If the console has a lid, make sure to
install the unit so that the faceplate will
not hit the lid when it is closed or opened.
If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
are not touching other parts to cause a
short circuit, and then replace the old fuse
with one with a new the same rating.
Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl
