Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion--and,
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against
this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
· Start your volume control at a low setting.
· Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
· Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all,
we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged
exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

About This Product
This product is a class D amplifier for the
subwoofer. If both L (left) and R (right)
channels are connected to the RCA input
of this product, output is mixed because
this product is a mono amplifier.
CAUTION
Never replace the fuse with one of greater
value or rating than the original fuse. Use
of an improper fuse could result in over-
heating and smoke and could cause dam-
age to the product and injury including
burns.
WARNING
· Handling the cord on this product or cords associ-
ated with accessories sold with the product will
expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State
of California and other governmental entities to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm. Wash hands after handling.
· Always use the recommended battery wire and
ground wire, which is sold separately. Connect the
battery wire directly to the car battery positive ter-
minal (+) and the ground wire to the car body.
· Do not touch the amplifier with wet hands.
Otherwise you may get an electric shock. Also, do
not touch the amplifier when it is wet.
· For traffic safety and to maintain safe driving
conditions, keep the volume low enough so that
you can still hear normal traffic sound.
· Check the connections of the power supply and
subwoofer if a fuse for the separately sold battery
wire blows. Detect the cause and solve the prob-
lem, then replace the fuse with another one of the
same size and rating.
· To prevent malfunction of the amplifier and sub-
woofer, the protective circuit will cut the power
supply to the amplifier (sound will stop) when an
abnormal condition occurs. In such a case, switch
the power to the system OFF and check the
connection of the power supply and subwoofer.
Detect the cause and solve the problem.
· Contact the dealer if you cannot detect the cause.
· To prevent an electric shock or short-circuit
during connection and installation, be sure to
disconnect the negative (­) terminal of the battery
beforehand.
· Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when
drilling a hole for installation of the amplifier. Be
sure to protect all cables and important equipment
such as fuel lines, brake lines and the electrical
wiring from damage.
· DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact
with liquids due to, for example, the location
where the amplifier is installed. Electrical shock
could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from contact
with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface and
the surface of any attached speakers could become
hot to the touch and minor burns could result.

CAUTION:
To prevent damage and/or injury
· Do not ground the speaker wire directly or con-
nect a negative (­) lead wire for several speakers.
· This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and
negative grounding. Before installing it in a recre-
ational vehicle, truck or bus, check the battery
voltage.
· If the car stereo is kept on for a long time while
the engine is at rest or idling, the battery may go
dead. Turn the car stereo off when the engine is at
rest or idling.
· If the system remote control wire of the amplifier
is connected to the power terminal through the
ignition switch (12 V DC), the amplifier will
always be on when the ignition is on-- regardless
of whether the car stereo is on or off. Because of
this, the battery could go dead if the engine is at
rest or idling.
· DO NOT connect a subwoofer with a lower
impedance than specified in the "Connecting the
Unit" section. Amplifier damage, smoke, and
overheating could result from a non-specified con-
nection. The amplifier surface could also become
hot to the touch and minor burns could result.
· Connect either of two subwoofers to the amplifier;
1: a subwoofer with a 750 W or larger nominal
input and an impedance 4
, or 2: a subwoofer
with a 1,500 W or larger nominal input and an
impedance 2
. If the nominal input and imped-
ance are out of the above ranges, the subwoofer
may catch fire, emit smoke or become damaged.
· Install and route the separately sold battery wire
as far away as possible from the speaker wires.
Install and route the separately sold battery wire,
ground wire, speaker wires and the amplifier as
far away as possible from the antenna, antenna
cable and tuner.
· Cords for this product and those for other prod-
ucts may be different colors even if they have the
same function. When connecting this product to
another product, refer to the supplied Installation
manuals of both products and connect cords that
have the same function.
Connecting the Unit
CAUTION
· Disconnect the negative (­) terminal of the battery
to avoid the risk of short-circuit and damage to
the unit.
· Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive
tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape
around it where they lie against metal parts.
· Do not route wires where they will get hot, for
example where the heater will blow over them. If
the insulation heats up, it may become damaged,
resulting in a short-circuit through the vehicle
body.
· Make sure that wires will not interfere with mov-
ing parts of the vehicle, such as the gearshift,
handbrake or seat sliding mechanism.
· Never feed power to other equipment by cutting
the insulation of the power supply wire to tap
from the wire. The current capacity of the wire
will be exceeded, causing overheating.
· Never replace the fuse with one of greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use of an improp-
er fuse could result in overheating and smoke and
could cause damage to the product and injury
including burns.

Specifications
CAUTION
· Do not install in:
--Places where it could injure the driver or pas-
sengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.
--Places where it may interfere with the driver,
such as on the floor in front of the driver's seat.
· Make sure that wires are not caught in the sliding
mechanism of the seats, resulting in a short-circuit.
· Confirm that no parts are behind the panel when
drilling a hole for installation of the amplifier. Protect
all cables and important equipment such as fuel lines,
brake lines and electrical wiring from damage.
· Install tapping screws in such a way that the
screw tip does not touch any wire. This is important
to prevent wires from being cut by vibration of the
car, which can result in fire.
· DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact
with liquids due to, for example, the location
where the amplifier is installed. Electrical shock
could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from contact
with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface and
the surface of any attached speakers could become
hot to the touch and minor burns could result.
· To ensure proper installation, use the supplied parts
in the manner specified. If any parts other than the
supplied ones are used, they may damage internal
parts of the amplifier, or they may become loose
causing the amplifier to shut down.
· Never replace the fuse with one of greater value
or rating than the original fuse. Use of an improp-
er fuse could result in overheating and smoke and
could cause damage to the product and injury
including burns.
CAUTION:
To prevent malfunction and/or injury
· To ensure proper heat dissipation of the amplifier,
be sure of the following during installation.
--Allow adequate space above the amplifier for
proper ventilation.
--Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat or
carpet.
· DO NOT allow amplifier to come into contact
with liquids due to, for example, the location
where the amplifier is installed. Electrical shock
could result. Also, amplifier and speaker damage,
smoke, and overheating could result from contact
with liquids. In addition, the amplifier surface and
the surface of any attached speakers could become
hot to the touch and minor burns could result.
· Do not install the amplifier on unstable places such
as the spare tire board.
· The best location for installation differs with the car
model and installation location. Secure the amplifier
at a sufficiently rigid location.
· Make temporary connections first and check that the
amplifier and the system operate properly.
· After installing the amplifier, confirm that the spare
tire, jack and tools can be easily removed.
Example of installation on the floor
mat or on the chassis
1. Place the amplifier where it is to be
installed. Insert the supplied tapping
screws (4
× 18 mm) into the screw
holes. Push on the screws with a
screwdriver so they make marks
where the installation holes are to be
located.
2. Drill 2.5 mm (1/8 in.) diameter holes
at the point marked, and install the
amplifier, either on the carpet or
directly to the chassis.

Cher Client:
La sélection d'un équipement audio de qualité comme l'unité que vous venez d'acheter n'est
que le début de votre plaisir musical. Maintenant, il est temps de penser à la manière de profiter au
maximum des plaisirs que vous offre votre équipement. Ce fabricant et le Groupe "Consumer
Electronics Group" de l'Association des Industries Electroniques veut que vous profitiez au maxi-
mum de votre équipement en l'utilisation à un niveau sûr. Un niveau qui permet au son d'être fort
et clair, sans beuglement ennuyant ou distorsion -- et, ce qui est plus important, sans affecter votre
ouïe sensible.
Le son peut être décevant. Avec le temps, le "niveau de confort" de votre ouïe s'adapte aux
volumes sonores plus élevés. Ainsi, les sons "normaux" peuvent en fait être forts et affecter votre
ouïe. Protégez-vous contre cela en réglant votre équipement à un niveau sûr AVANT l'adaptation
de votre ouïe.
Pour établir un niveau sûr:
·
Démarrer votre commande de volume à un réglage bas.
·
Augmentez lentement le son jusqu'à ce que vous l'entendiez confortablement et clairement,
sans distorsion.
Lorsque vous avez établi un niveau sonore confortable:
·
Réglez le cadran et laissez-le tel quel.
En prenant une minute pour faire cela, vous pourrez éviter des dommages ou des pertes de sen-
sibilités d'écoute dans le futur. Après tout, nous voulons que vous écoutiez pendant toute votre vie.
Nous voulons que vous écoutiez pendant toute votre vie
Utilisé avec sagesse, votre nouvel équipement sonore sera une source de plaisir pendant toute
votre vie. Comme les dommages de l'ouïe provenant d'un bruit fort ne sont souvent détectables
que lorsqu'il est trop tard, ce fabricant et le Groupe "Consumer Electronics Group" de
l'Association des Industries Electroniques vous recommandent d'éviter toute exposition prolongée
à un bruit excessif. Cette liste de niveaux sonores est incluse pour votre protection.

ATTENTION
· Utilisez le câble de liaison à la batterie et le câble
de masse conseillés; ils sont vendus séparément.
Reliez le câble rouge à la borne positive (+) de la
batterie et le câble de masse à la carrosserie du
véhicule.
· Ne touchez pas l'amplificateur quand vous avez
les mains mouillées, faute de quoi vous risquez de
ressentir une secousse électrique. Pareillement, ne
touchez pas l'amplificateur s'il est mouillé.
· Pour votre sécurité et celles des autres usagers de
la route, maintenez le niveau d'écoute à une
valeur telle que les bruits de la circulation
demeurent nettement perceptibles.
· Vérifiez les raccordements de l'alimentation et du
haut-parleur d'extrêmes graves si le fusible du
câble de liaison (vendu séparément) à la batterie
vient à griller. Recherchez la cause de l'anomalie
puis corrigez-la; enfin, remplacez le fusible grillé
par un fusible de même taille et de même calibre.
· Pour éviter d'endommager l'amplificateur et du
haut-parleur d'extrême grave, le circuit de
protection coupe l'alimentation de l'amplificateur
(les sons ne sont plus émis) dès que survient une
situation anormale. Dans ce cas, mettez
l'ensemble des appareils hors tension et contrôlez
les liaisons entre l'amplificateur et du haut-parleur
d'extrême grave. Le cas échéant, recherchez la
cause de l'anomalie et corrigez-la.
· Consultez le revendeur si vous n'êtes pas en
mesure de résoudre le problème qui se pose à
vous.
· Pour éviter toute secousse électrique et tout risque
de court-circuit au cours des opérations de
raccordement et d'installation, n'oubliez pas de
débrancher le câble relié au pôle négatif de la
batterie (­) avant d'effectuer quelque opération
que ce soit.
· Avant d'effectuer un perçage requis par
l'installation de l'amplificateur, assurez-vous que
vous pouvez le faire sans danger pour les câbles,
canalisations, flexibles, etc., qui sont placés
derrière le panneau que vous devez percer.
· NE LAISSEZ PAS l'amplificateur entrer en
contact avec des liquides à cause, par exemple, de
l'emplacement où il a été placé. Cela pourrait
entraîner une secousse électrique. De plus, le
contact avec un liquide pourrait endommager
l'amplificateur et les enceintes, produire de la
fumée ou surchauffer l'appareil. Enfin, la surface
de l'amplificateur et des enceintes connectées peut
devenir chaude au toucher et entraîner de légères
brûlures.
