WARNING
! The use of a special red battery and ground
wire RD-223, available separately, is recom-
mended. Connect the battery wire directly to
the car battery positive terminal + and the
ground wire to the car body.
! This unit is for vehicles with a 12 V battery and
negative grounding. Before installing in re-
creational vehicles, trucks or buses, check the
battery voltage.
! When installing this unit, make sure to con-
nect the ground wire first. Ensure that the
ground wire is properly connected to metal
parts of the car's body. The ground wire of the
one of this unit must be connected to the car

The use of an improper fuse could result in
overheating and smoke, damage to the pro-
duct and injury, including burns.
! Check the connections of the power supply
and speakers if the fuse of the separately sold
battery wire or the amplifier fuse blows. Deter-
mine and resolve the cause, then replace the
fuse with and identical equivalent.

Do not install the amplifier on a surface that
is not flat or on a surface with a protrusion.
Doing so could result in malfunction.

parts such as extra screws to get caught be-
tween the amplifier and the automobile.
Doing so could cause malfunction.
