Before Installation

2WARNING
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.

• Mounting and wiring this product
requires skills and experience. For safety's
sake, leave the mounting and wiring work
to professionals.
• Make sure to ground the unit to a
negative 12V DC power supply.
• Do not install the unit in a spot exposed
to direct sunlight or excessive heat or
humidity. Also avoid places with too
much dust or the possibility of water
splashing.
• Do not use your own screws. Use only
the supplied screws. Using wrong screws,
could damage the unit.
• 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.
• If your car's ignition key switch 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 wires to
a constant-voltage power source, as with
battery wires, the battery may die.
• If the console has a lid, make sure to
install the unit so that the faceplate will
not hit the lid when it is closed or opened.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
are not touching other parts to cause a
short circuit, and then replace the old fuse
with one with a new the same rating.
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl
