IMPORTANT! Before making any connections, disconnect the car's battery until the
installation is completed to avoid possible damage to the electrical system.
Connect the amplifier to the car's battery.
At times, the amplifier will need to draw large levels of current that cannot be provided by any
circuit in the car's fuse box. We recommended using an 8 to 10 gauge power wire for your
connections depending on the amplifier and length of the wire. Strip one end of the wire to
connect to the terminal on the amplifier marked +12V. Loosen screw terminal and connect
bare wire and tighten. Use cauti on to make sure no stray wire stands come in contact with
surrounding terminals causing short circuits. Run the wire directly to the positive terminal of
the car's battery. Make sure to use an in-line fuse within 12" of the car's battery to protect
the electrical system and amplifier against short circuits and/or power surges.
Connect the ground terminal of the amplifier to the car's chassis.
For the ground connection, use an 8-10 gauge wire (black) to connect to the terminal marked
GND and then connect it to the car's chassis. Try to keep the length of the cable as short as
possible, preferably less than 6". Also make sure that the point on the car where the
connection is to be made is free of paint and dirt.
Connect the remote terminal of the amplifier to a switchable +12V source.
This connection allows the amplifier to be turned on and off with the power control of the
radio. If the radio has a REMOTE output terminal, connect it to the amplifier's terminal
marked REMOTE (using a 16 gauge wire or heavier). Now when the radio is turned on, the
amplifier will automatically turn on.
