About bridged mode

! Do not install or use this amplifier by wiring
speakers rated at 4 W (or lower) in parallel to
achieve a 2 W (or lower) bridged mode (Dia-
gram B).
Amplifier damage, smoke, and overheating
could result from improper bridging. The am-
plifier surface could also become hot to the
touch and minor burns could result.
To properly install or use a bridged mode and
achieve a 4 W load, wire two 8 W speakers in
parallel with Left + and Right * (Diagram A)
or use a single 4 W speaker.
In addition, refer to the speaker instruction
manual for information on the correct connec-
tion procedure.
! For any further enquiries, contact your local
authorized Pioneer dealer or customer
service.
