Adjusting The Input Gain Control; Setting The Crossover; Setting The Bass Boost; Final System Check - Clarion XC6210 Owner's Manual & Installation Manual

ADJUSTING THE INPUT GAIN CONTROL

After completing the installation, follow these steps to set the Input Gain Control.
1. Set Input Gain Control to MIN (counterclockwise).
2. Power on source. Set all Tone or Equalization Controls to "flat" positions and set
Loudness off.
3. Play a CD, set the Source Volume Control to 75% of max level.
4. Slowly adjust the Input Gain Control of amplifier. Stop when you hear a slight
distortion of audio.
NOTE: If the audio system uses an equalizer, set its frequency controls to "flat"
positions.

SETTING THE CROSSOVER

The Clarion XC6210 and XC6410 feature fully adjustable high and low pass
crossovers. To set the crossover, follow these steps.
1. Using the Crossover Mode Switch, select the desired mode: LOW for Low Pass,
HIGH for High Pass or FULL for Full Range.
2. Using the FREQ (Hz) Selection Control, select the desired frequency. If the
desired frequency exceeds the range of the FREQ (Hz) Selection Control, slide
the Crossover Frequency Multiplier Switch to x10.
• For example, 50Hz x 10 = 500Hz or 500Hz x 10 = 5kHz
NOTE: x10 Multiplier is available on XC6210 and XC6410 (only on CH3/CH4)

SETTING THE BASS BOOST

1. Set Bass Boost to 0dB (counterclockwise).
2. Listen to a variety of music styles (e.g. Rock, Rap, etc.) and slowly adjust the
Bass Boost control (clockwise) to realize the best bass response.

FINAL SYSTEM CHECK

1. Power on the source unit. Slowly increase the Volume Control and listen to
the audio. If there is no audio or if you hear any static, distortion, please check
the connections and refer to the Troubleshooting section. Depending on your
system design, the levels may become quite loud even at low Volume Control
settings. Until you get an "audio feel" of the system's power, use care when
adjusting controls.
2. Check "Source" Balance (Left and Right) and Fader (Front and Rear) to ensure
proper installation.
3. Increase the volume and verify that the amplifier reproduces audio (at full
frequencies) without distortion. If you hear distortion, check the connections and
verify that the Input Gain Control is set properly.
