Installation
Self-tapping screw
(ø4 × 16 mm)
Installation board, etc.
(thickness : 15 mm or more)
2CAUTION
• Do not install in the below locations;
(Unstable location, In a location that interferes with driving, In a location that gets wet, In a dusty location,
In a place that gets hot, In a place that gets direct sunlight, In a location that gets hit by hot air)
• Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged.
• Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate.
Once installed, do not place any object on top of the unit.
• The surface temperature of the amplifier will become hot during use. Install the amplifier in a place where
people, resins, and other substances that are sensitive to heat will not come into contact with it.
• When making a hole under a seat, inside the trunk, or somewhere else in the vehicle, check that there
is nothing hazardous on the opposite side such as a gasoline tank, brake pipe, or wiring harness, and be
careful not to cause scratches or other damage.
• Do not install near the dashboard, rear tray, or air bag safety parts.
• The installation to the vehicle should securely fasten the unit to a place in which it will not obstruct
driving. If the unit comes off due to a shock and hits a person or safety part, it may cause injury or an
accident.
• After installing the unit, check to make sure that electrical equipment such as the brake lamps, turn signal
lamps and windshield wipers operate normally.

This switch allows to apply high-pass or low-pass
filtering to the speaker outputs.
Set this control according to the pre-output level
of the center unit connected with this unit, or
to the maximum power output of the genuine-
accessory car stereo.
The sensitivities of amplifiers A and B can be
adjusted independently regardless of the
position of the input selector switch.
The filter outputs the band of higher frequencies
than the frequency set with the FILTER
FREQUENCY control.
Use the diagram on the right as a guide.
The entire bandwidth is output without filtering.
NOTE
The filter outputs the band of lower frequencies
than the frequency set with the FILTER
FREQUENCY control.
For the pre-output level or the maximum power
output, refer to the <Specifications> in the
instruction manual of the center unit.

This switch is used to select the operation mode
of the amplifier.
The amplifier can be used as a stereo amplifier.
Amplifies the signal input from the left side
only. Set to this position and make bridged
connections to use as a high-power monaural
amplifier. (The input right signal is not output.)
This switch selects the input method of
the signals to be amplified by amplifiers A
and B.
• A B position:
Amplifies both of the signals input to
amplifiers A and B.
• A position:
Amplifies only signal input amplifier A with
both amplifiers A and B.
Sets the cutoff frequency when the FILTER switch
is set to LPF or HPF.

Connection

■
■
Since there are large variety of settings and
connections possible according to applications, read
the instruction manual well to select the proper
setting and connection.
1. Remove the ignition key and disconnect the
negative - terminal of the battery to prevent
short circuits.
2. Set the unit according to the intended usage.
3. Connect the input and output wires of the units.
4. Connect the speaker wires.
5. Connect the power wire, power control wire and
grounding wire following this order.
• Take the battery wire for this unit directly from the
battery. If it's connected to the vehicle’s wiring
harness, it can cause blown fuses etc.
• If a buzzing noise is heard from the speakers when
the engine is running, connect a line noise filter
(optional) to each of the battery wire.
• Do not allow the wire to directly contact the edge
of the iron plate by using Grommets.
• Connect the ground wire to a metal part of the car
chassis that acts as an electrical ground passing
electricity to the battery‘s negative - terminal.
Do not turn the power on if the ground wire is not
connected.
6. Install the unit in the car.
7. Connect the negative - terminal of the battery.
• Be sure to install a protective fuse in the power
cord near the battery. The protective fuse should
be the same capacity as the unit’s fuse capacity or
somewhat larger.
• For the power cord and ground, use a vehicle
type (fireproof ) power wring cord with a current
capacity greater than the unit’s fuse capacity. (Use
a power wiring cord with a diameter of 5 mm²
(AWG 10) or greater.)
• When more than one power amplifier are going
to be used, use a power supply wiring wire
and protective fuse of greater current-handling
capacity than the total maximum current drawn by
each amplifier.
2WARNING
To prevent fire caused by a short in the wiring,
connect a fusible link or breaker nearby the battery’s
positive terminal.
2CAUTION
• If sound is not output normally, immediately turn
power off and check connections.
• Be sure to turn the power off before changing the
setting of any switch.
• If the fuse blows, check wires for shorts, then
replace the fuse with one of the same rating.
• Check that no unconnected wires or connectors
are touching the car body. Do not remove caps
from unconnected wires or connectors to prevent
short circuits.
• Connect the speaker wires to appropriate speaker
connectors separately. Sharing the negative wire
of the speaker or grounding speaker wires to the
metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail.
• After installation, check that the brake lamps,
winkers, and wipers work properly.
■
• The rated input power of the speakers that are
going to be connected should be greater than the
maximum output power (in Watts) of the amplifier.
Use of speakers having input power ratings that
are less than the output power of the amplifier will

Troubleshooting Guide
What might appear to be a malfunction in your unit may just be the result of slight misoperation or
miswiring. Before calling service, first check the following table for possible problems.
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
• Input (or output) cables are
disconnected.
SOLUTION
• Connect the input (or output)
cables.
• Protection circuit may be activated. • Check connections by referring to
<Protection function>.
• Volume is too high.
• Replace the fuse and use lower
volume.
• The speaker cord is shorted.
• After check the speaker cord and
fixing the cause of the short, replace
the fuse.
• The input sensitivity adjusting
control is not set to the correct
position.
• Adjust the control correctly referring
to <Controls>.
• The speakers wire are connected
with wrong + /-polarity.
• Connect them properly checking the
+ / - of the terminals and wires
well.
• A speaker wire is pinched by a screw • Connect the speaker wire again so
in the car body. that it is not pinched by anything.
• The switches may be set improperly. • Set switches properly by referring to
<System examples>.
