• IMPORTANT: This amplifier is designed for operation in vehicles with
12 volt DC negative ground systems only.
• Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal from your vehicle’s battery
before installation.
• Ensure adequate clearance around the amplifier’s heat sinks for prop-
er air flow. If you’re mounting the amplifier near the radio, always main-
tain at least 2 to 5 inches of clearance between the radio and amplifier.
• Never mount the amplifier directly to the radio body.
• Never install the unit in a location where it interferes with your field of
vision.
• Never install the unit in a place in which the amplifier could injure the
driver or passengers if the vehicle suddenly stops.
• Never install the unit upside down. Mounting upside down will compro-
mise heat dissipation and engage its protection circuitry.
• If the unit does not turn on, check all wiring first. Then check the fuse
in your vehicle’s fuse panel and the two fuses in the unit. If either fuse
has failed, eliminate the cause of the failure, and replace the fuse with
one prescribed for this unit.
