1-) Read this instruction manual carefully before carrying out any connection.
ANY CONNECTION TO THE AMPLIFIER INPUT OR OUTPUT MUST BE
CARRIED OUT WHEN AMPLIFIER IS OFF;
2-) Check carefully the polarity of power supply wiring (battery's positive and
negative terminals) and loudspeakers, and the minimum speaker impedance;
3-) It is compulsory to install fuses to protect against overloading. The fuse or
circuit breaker must be installed as close as possible to the battery and sized
according to the amplifier;
4-) The gauge of power supply wiring is extremely important both to reach the
desired amplifier output and to the amplifier's safety. Use the wire gauge
