PLEASE READ THIS USER MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING
THIS UNIT AND RETAIN THIS BOOKLET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING:
• This power capacitor may explode and cause serious injury or death if
abused or connected improperly.
• Refer to the installation manual for correct procedures when making
connections, and/or charging/discharging the capacitor.
• Do not expose the capacitor to voltages higher than specied at any time.
• Do not install in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
CAUTION:
Improper connection of this product can cause electrical damage to the
vehicle and/or equipment. PyleUSA assumes no responsibility for any
damages that could occur due to improper connection of this product.
Introduction
This manual provides detailed information on the function, installation, and
operation of the power capacitor.
To avoid possible injury and damage to your audio system, please study the
manual carefully before you start the power capacitor installation.
Operation
The digital display capacitor is an energy storage device designed to
supplement the audio amplier's power supply during high current demand.
An example of such a demand is when music hits a low bass transient.
The overall bass response of an audio system will be enhanced by using this
device. It is capable of storing a large amount of energy which can be
discharged very quickly when needed.

automotive batteries are not designed to deliver the current required in
high-power car audio installations.
Another feature of the digital display capacitor is its ability to lter car AC
voltage induced by the amplier's power supply. This can otherwise cause
audible noise in the car's sound system.

Installation
For maximum performance, the digital power capacitor should be installed as
close to your amplier as possible. The ideal location is one that allows short
wiring runs while keeping the capacitor somewhat isolated from the heat
created by the amplier system. The positive power wire should be kept as
short as possible and should be connected to the amplier's battery supply
cable. We recommend that a high-performance distribution block be used to
create a splice into this cable (as shown in the image).
No fuses should be installed in the wire between the power capacitor and the
amplier system, but make sure there is an appropriate fuse at the battery in
the main supply cable. The ground cable for the power capacitor should be
kept as short as possible and should be connected directly to the vehicle's
chassis at a bare metal surface. Do not ground the capacitor directly to the
amplier ground terminal or ground cable (see Fig. 1).
The positive and negative wires to the capacitor should have the same gauge
as the amplier power wires. High-performance 8 or 10 AWG OFC power
cables are a good choice for this application. If the digital display has a remote
terminal, remember to connect it with the remote terminal of your
amplier(s) using 18 to 20 AWG primary wire (see Fig. 2).
REM (ON/OFF) = REMOTE CONTROL
Connect the REM terminal to the automatic antenna connector of your car
radio. Now, when turning on and o your car radio, the amplier automatically
switches on and o. A cable diameter of 0.5 mm² is sucient.

Power-Up Procedures and Display Functions
1. Connect the power cable to the digital power capacitor.
Connect the ground cable rst and second the positive cable.
2. The digital PCB system will turn on automatically during the initial charging
process. The status LED will light, and the decimal point display will icker
to indicate the system is charging the capacitor.
3. When the capacitor is fully charged, the decimal point display will stop
ickering, and the display will show the DC voltage of the car's electronic
system.
4. If the DC voltage of the car's electronic system exceeds ±0.1 ampere, the
digital PCB will automatically operate (e.g., when the car audio system
hits the bass or uses other high-consumption electronic equipment, causing
large voltage drops).
5. If the DC voltage of the car does not exceed ±0.1 ampere, the digital PCB
will maintain its "on" status for one minute to ensure the car's electronic
system is stable. The digital PCB will then automatically turn o and stay
in "stand-by" mode.
6. If the DC voltage of the car's electronic system exceeds ±0.1 ampere, the
capacitor will automatically operate again.
Safety Protection Function
If the user accidentally reverses the polarity of (+) and (-), it can cause
damage to the system and also be harmful to the user. Therefore, we have
designed the PCB relay inside to protect against incorrect connections.
The unit will not turn on, and the buzzer will warn the user.
The digital power capacitor will only turn on if all wiring is connected correctly
as per the instructions.
