Connecting the Units
Notes
• This unit is for vehicles wit h a 12-volt battery and negativ e grounding. Before install ing it in
a recreational vehicle, tr uck, or bus, check the battery voltage.
• To avoid shorts in the e lectrical system, be sure to di sconnect the - battery cable before
beginning installatio n.
• Refer to the owner’s manual for de tails on connecting the power amp and other units, then
make connections corr ectly.
• Secure the wiring with cable c lamps or adhesive tape. To prote ct the wiring, wrap adhesive
tape around them wher e they lie against metal par ts.
• Route and secure all wir ing so it cannot touch any m oving parts, such as the g ear shift,
handbrake and seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater
outlet. If the insulation o f the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a danger of th e wiring shortcircuiting to the vehic le body.
• Do not pass the yellow l ead through a hole into the engine compartment to co nnect to the
battery. This will dama ge the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous s hort.
• Do not shorten any leads . If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should.
• Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supp ly lead of
the unit and tapping into the lead. The current capac ity of the lead will be exceeded, causing
overheating.
• When replacing the fus e, be sure to only use a fu se of the rating prescri bed on this product.
• Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed, neve r wire so the speaker leads are directly
grounded or the left and right - speaker leads are common.
• Speakers connected to th is unit must be highpower with minimum rating of 5 0 W and
impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting spe akers with output and/or impedance values other
than those noted here may result in the speakers catching fire, emi tting smoke or becoming
damaged.
• When this product’s sourc e is switched ON, a control signal is output thro ugh the blue/white
lead. Connect to an ex ternal power amp’s system r emote control or the car ’s Auto-antenna
relay control terminal (max. 3 00 mA 12 V DC). If the car features a glass antenna, connect
to the antenna booster power supply terminal.
• When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the blue/
white lead to the amp’s power termin al. Likewise, do not connect the blue/white lead to the
power terminal of the a uto-antenna. Such connec tion could cause excessi ve current drain
and malfunction.
• To avoid short-circuiti ng, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. Insulate the
unused speaker l eads without fail. Th ere is a possibility of a short-circuiting if the leads are
not insulated.
• To prevent incorrect c onnection, the input side of the IP-BUS connector i s blue, and the
output side is black. Co nnect the connectors of t he same colors correctly.
• If this unit is installe d in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the
ignition switch, the red lead of the unit should be connected to a terminal c oupled with
ignition switch ON/OF F operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery m ay be drained
when you are away from the vehicle for severa l hours.
ACC position No ACC position
• The black lead is ground. P lease ground this lead separately from the ground of high-current
products such as power amps.
If you ground the pr oducts together and the gr ound becomes detached, t here is a risk of
damage to the produc ts or fire.
• Cords for this product an d those for other products may be different colors ev en if they have
the same function. When connecting this produ ct to another product, refer to the supplied
manuals of both pro ducts and connect cords t hat have the same function .
