Caution!
•
Please use great caution drilling your trunk, your gas tank and brake lines can be damaged by
puncturing with your drillbit – this could cause damage or failure of your cars operating systems.
•
As a precaution it is advisable to disconnect the vehicle's battery before making connection to the
+12 Volts supply wiring (see owner's manual of your car for further information!).
•
3 AWG / min. 25 mm² (thicker if planning for additional amplifiers) wire is recommended both the
power and grounds. Both types are available at most Mobile audio dealers or installation shops.
WARNING
High powered audio systems in a vehicle are capable of generating „Live Concert" high level of
sound pressure. Continued exposure to excessively high volume sound levels may cause hearing
loss or damage. Also, operation of a motor vehicle while listening to audio equipment at high
volume levels may impair your ability to hear external sound such as; horns, warning signals, or
emergency vehicles, thus constituting to a potential traffic hazard. For safety reasons we
recommends listening at lower volume levels while driving.
Planning your system
a)
select a suitable location that is convenient for mounting, is accessible for wiring and has enough
room for air circulation and cooling.
b)
If your radio is equipped with preamplifier outputs (RCA), it is advisable to use them.
Mounting your amplifier
•
Select a suitable location that is convenient for mounting, is accessible for wiring and has ample
room for air circulation and cooling.
•
Use the amplifier a template to mark the mounting holes, remote the amplifier and drill 6 holes (use
extreme caution, inspect underneath surface before drilling!)
•
Secure the amplifier using the screws provided
Connections

Connections
1.) GROUND: To vehicle Chassis
To avoid ignition noise caused by ground loops, it is necessary that the amplifiers be grounded to a clean, bare
metal surface of the vehicles chassis.
NOTE: GROUND WIRE SHOLD NOT BE EXTENDED MORE THAN 3 FT.(1 Meter) min. 0 AWG / 50mm²
2.) Remote Turn-On Input: to power antenna output of Car Stereo
This amplifier is turned "ON" remotely when the vehicle's stereo is turned "ON".
3.) +12 Volt (Fused) Constant power: To Battery (+)
Due to the power requirements of the amplifier, this connection should be made directly to the positive (+)
terminal of battery. For safety reasons, install an in-line fuse holder (not included) as close to the battery positive
(+) terminal as possible with a rating not exceeding value of fuses in amp.
Turning on your amplifier
The amplifier automatically turns on a few seconds after you turn your vehicle's ignitions switch to ACC ON or
turn on your auto sound system, depending on how you wired the system. The POWER LED on the side of the
amplifier lights when the amplfier is on.
Important: Your amplifier requires 30 amps or more of power from your vehicle's battery during operation. To
protect your battery from discharging, do not operate the amplifier unless your vehicle is running.
Note: Your amplifier temporarily shuts down if it gets too hot, then restarts automatically once it cools down.
ADJUSTING THE AUDIO LEVEL
For the best performance, you must set LEVEL (MIN/MAX) on the side of the amplifier to adjust the level of the
audio signals.
1.
Use a screwdriver to turn LEVEL(MIN/MAX) fully to MIN
2.
Turn the auto sound system's volume control to about two-third of its full range.
3.
Adjust LEVEL(MIN/MAX) to a comfortable listening level
4.
Turn up the auto sound system's volume control until the sound beginns to distort. Then
immediately turn the volume down to a point just before where the distortion began.
Caution: Never turn up the auto sound system's volume control more than needed to adjust the
audio level, more than two thirds of its maximum volume.
5.
Adjust LEVEL (MIN/MAX) until the sound is at the maximum level you want the amplifier two
produce.
6.
Adjust the auto sound system's volume control to a comfortable listening level.
