■ Precautions
- This amplifier is suitable for negative ground 12V DC operation only.
- Wrap cables in protective electrical tape when routing near metal brackets and sharp edges.
- Do not install main unit or harness near moving mechanisms such as the steering column,
seat rails, pedals etc.
- Do not install this product where it may get wet or in areas where it is likely to get dusty or dirty.
- Do not open, disassemble or modify this product.
- Ensure the car battery is in good condition. A weak battery will cause a significant drop in
power output and sound quality.
This amplifier is provided with a protection circuit that operates in the following conditions:
- When the speaker output terminals are short circuited
- When the battery is connected in reverse polarity
- When the amplifier is overheated
If this occurs, turn off the ignition and determine the cause of the malfunction. In case of
overheating, wait until the amplifier has cooled off before using.
