Installation Procedure
1. To prevent a short circuit, remove the key
from the ignition and disconnect the battery.
2. Make the proper input and output wire
connections for each unit.
3. Connect the speaker wires of the wiring
harness.
4. Connect the wiring harness wires in the
following order: ground, battery, ignition.
5. Connect the wiring harness connector to
the unit.
6. Install the unit in your car.
7. Reconnect the - battery.
8. Press the reset button.
10 | Quick Start Guide
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.
2
• 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
tape or other similar materials. To prevent
a short circuit, do not remove the caps on
the ends of the unconnected wires and
terminals.
• Connect the speaker wires correctly to the
corresponding terminals. The unit may
be damaged or fail to work if you share
the - wires or ground them to any metal
part in the car.
• When connecting only two speakers,
connect the connectors either to both
of the front output terminals or to both
of the rear output terminals (do not mix
front and rear terminals). For example, if
you connect the + connector of the left
speaker to a front output terminal, do
not connect the - connector to a rear
output terminal.
• After the installing the unit, check
whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers,
etc. on the car are working properly.
• Mount the unit so that the mounting
angle is 30° or less.
• Reception may become poor if there are
metal objects near the Bluetooth antenna.
Bluetooth antenna unit
For Good Reception
To assure good reception, note the
following:
• Communicate with the cell-phone within
the line-of-sight distance of 10 m (30
ft). The communication range becomes
shorter depending on the surrounding
environment. The communication
range also becomes shorter when there
is an obstacle between this unit and
the cell-phone. The above maximum
communication range (10 m) is not
always assured.
• A broadcast station or walkie-talkie
located nearby can interfere with
communication due to a too strong
signal.
2 CAUTION
Install this unit in the console of your
vehicle.
Do not touch the metal parts of this unit
during and shortly after use of the unit.
Metal parts such as the heat sink and
enclosure become hot.
