Warning

■

The unit can only be installed in a car with a

12 V DC power supply, negative ground.

■

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.

■

Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal

and make all electrical connections before

installing the unit.

■

Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape

or other similar material. To prevent a short

circuit, do not remove the caps on the ends

of the unconnected wires or the terminals.

■

Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s

chassis again after installation.

■

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.

Caution

■

If your car’s ignition 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 wire to a power source with

a constant voltage supply, as with battery

wires, the battery may die.

■

Do not use your own screws. Use only the

screws provided.

■

Install this unit in the console of your

vehicle. Make sure the faceplate will not hit

the lid of the console (if any) when closing

and opening.

■

After the unit is installed, 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.

■

If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires

are not touching to cause a short circuit,

then replace the old fuse with one that has

the same rating.

■

Connect the speaker wires correctly to the

terminals to which they correspond. 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 only two speakers are being

connected to the system, connect the

connectors either to both the front output

terminals or to both the rear output

terminals (do not mix front and rear).

■

Mounting and wiring this product requires

skills and experience. For safety’s sake, leave

this work to professionals.

If you experience problems during

installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.
