Connection - Kenwood eXcelon KAC-X1R Instruction Manual

Connection

2WARNING
To prevent fire caused by a short in the wiring,
connect a fusible link or breaker nearby the
battery's positive terminal.
2CAUTION
• If sound is not output normally, immediately
turn power off and check connections.
• Be sure to turn the power off before changing
the setting of any switch.
• If the fuse blows, check wires for shorts, then
replace the fuse with one of the same rating.
• Check that no unconnected wires or
connectors are touching the car body. Do
not remove caps from unconnected wires or
connectors to prevent short circuits.
• Connect the speaker wires to appropriate
speaker connectors separately. Sharing the
negative wire of the speaker or grounding
speaker wires to the metal body of the car can
cause this unit to fail.
• After installation, check that the brake lamps,
winkers, and wipers work properly.
