Warning
The unit can only be installed in a car with a
12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and
the battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis
(ground), you may cause a short circuit,
that in turn may start a fire. Always connect
those wires to the power source running
through the fuse box.
Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal
and make all electrical connections before
installing the unit.
Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape
or other similar material. To prevent a short
circuit, do not remove the caps on the ends
of the unconnected wires or the terminals.
Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s
chassis again after installation.
If the power is not turned ON (“PROTECT”
is displayed), the speaker wire may have a
short-circuit or touched the chassis of the
vehicle and the protection function may
have been activated. Therefore, the speaker
wire should be checked.
Caution
If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC
position, connect the ignition wires to a
power source that can be turned on and
off with the ignition key. If you connect
the ignition wire to a power source with
a constant voltage supply, as with battery
wires, the battery may die.
Install this unit in the console of your
vehicle. Make sure the faceplate will not hit
the lid of the console (if any) when closing
and opening.
After the unit is installed, check whether the
brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car
are working properly.
Mount the unit so that the mounting angle
is 30° or less.
If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
are not touching to cause a short circuit,
then replace the old fuse with one that has
the same rating.
Connect the speaker wires correctly to the
terminals to which they correspond. The
unit may be damaged or fail to work if you
share the · wires or ground them to any
metal part in the car.
