n Keep the volume at a low level to be able to hear exterior noises while driving
the vehicle. There is a risk of causing an accident.
n Do not open the amplier or undertake any modication of the product. There
is a risk of accident, re or electric shock.
n Only use this amplier with 12V mobile applications. Any other use other than
the use for which this product has been designed may lead to re, electric shock or
injury.
n Use fuses of the correct amperage. There is a risk of re or electrocution.
n Do not obstruct radiators and/or vents. Internal overheating may occur and cause
a re.
n Ensure all connections are properly made. Check the section of cable and the
type of cable if it does not correspond with the use. There is a risk of re, injury and/
or damage to the product.
n Do not use nuts or fasteners part of the steering or braking systems for ground
connection. The fasteners and nuts used for the brake and steering systems (or any
other security system) as well as various tanks must never be used for grounding.
Use of these parts as ground may deactivate the vehicle’s control system and cause
a re or other technical problem.
n Keep all small objects which could be swallowed, such as the fasteners and
screws, out of the reach of children. Swallowing such objects may cause serious
injuries. In the event of swallowing any of these objects, immediately seek medical
advice.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before you start with the installation, make sure you know the security code of your
headunit (if applicable).
2. Remove the headunit from the dashboard and disconnect the main wire.
3. Find a place for the A480DSP and connect the provided (or optionally available
car-specic) wire to the amp.
2
4. For more power output please follow these steps: Run a 10mm
power wire from
the (+) pole of the battery to the (BATT) terminal of the amplier. Use a fuse with the
related value of the cross section of the power wire. The distance between the B+
pole and the fuse holder must be 30 cm or less. Run the minus cable with the same
cross section from the (GND) terminal of the amp to the vehicle chassis ground.
Make sure that the contact surface is clean in order to get best conductance.
5. Make sure the switch “DSP” is set to “ON”.
6. Connect the wire to the headunit.
7. Install the headunit back in the dashboard.

WIRING DIAGRAM
If you want to use just the DSP function of the A480DSP with a separate high performance
amplifier, connect the line out of the A480DSP with the RCA input of your amplifier.
