ACC position No ACC position

• Use of this unit in conditions other than the
following could result in fire or malfunction.
− Vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative
grounding.
− When speaker output is used by 4 channels, use
speakers over 50 W (maximum input power) and
between 4 Ω to 8 Ω (impedance value). Do not
use 1 Ω to 3 Ω speakers for this unit.
− When rear speaker output is used by 2 Ω of
subwoofer, use speakers over 70 W (maximum
input power).
* Please refer to connections for a connection
method.
• To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or
malfunction, be sure to follow the directions
below.
− Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery
before installation.
− Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive
tape. Wrap adhesive tape around wiring that
comes into contact with metal parts to protect
the wiring.
− Place all cables away from moving parts, such as
the shift lever and seat rails.
− Place all cables away from hot places, such as
near the heater outlet.
− Do not connect the yellow cable to the battery
by passing it through the hole to the engine
compartment.
− Cover any disconnected cable connectors with
insulating tape.
− Do not shorten any cables.
− Never cut the insulation of the power cable of
this unit in order to share the power with other
devices. The current capacity of the cable is
limited.
− Use a fuse of the rating prescribed.
− Never wire the negative speaker cable directly
 to ground.
− Never band together negative cables of multiple
speakers.
• When this unit is on, control signals are sent
through the blue/white cable. Connect this cable
to the system remote control of an external power
amp or the vehicle’s auto-antenna relay control
terminal (max. 300mA 12 V DC). If the vehicle is
equipped with a glass antenna, connect it to the
antenna booster power supply terminal.
• Never connect the blue/white cable to the power
terminal of an external power amp. Also, never
connect it to the power terminal of the auto
antenna. Doing so may result in battery drain or
a malfunction.
• The black cable is ground. Ground cables for
this unit and other equipment (especially, high-
current products such as power amps) must be
wired separately. If they are not, an accidental
detachment may result in a fire or malfunction.
• The graphical symbol placed on the
product means direct current.
• The function and audio settings other than the
setting of RCA pre-outs are stored in memory if
the unit is disconnected from power supply.
