This input is 'auto rang- ing' to handle a wide range of factory head unit outputs. It will accept speaker or line level outputs. It has 5 input pairs for Front, Rear, and Subwoofer. 13 RCA OUTPUT - 2 Front L/R Pairs, 1 Rear L/R Pair, 1 Subwoofer Mono Front L1/R1 For Factory High-pass Output Front L2/R2 For Factory Low-pass Output (or Fullrange Output) Rear L/R For Factory Rear, Full Range Output Subwoofer For Factory Subwoofer Output Note: OUTPUT: For full-range only, use outputs FRONT L2/R2 INPUT: If there is a L/R pair of full range outputs available from the factory system (FRONT or REAR) these should be used first and connected to inputs L2/R2 on the PXE-H660. If the factory 2-way output must be used, connect Tweeter Left to L1, Woofer Left to L2, Tweeter Right to R1, and Woofer Right to R2. 10

REMOTE IR INPUT
(2.5mm mini-jack) - Input for external remote eye (included)
6
WIRED REMOTE INPUT
(3.5mm mini-jack) - Input for steering wheel control (factory op
-
tion); Note: Using this input disables the factory head unit steering wheel controls.

- Turn this switch ON, if a factory radio source is not being used.
This accomodates an aftermarket radio using the AUX INPUT.
8
CLIP
- This LED is ON whenever the AUX source is over the input limit. During
MultEQ
Calibration, this LED indicates MIC Input clipping.
9

outputs.
11 MIC
- 3.5mm jack for included microphone.
12 AUTO RANGING INPUT
- Use this input for the factory head unit. This input is 'auto rang-
ing' to handle a wide range of factory head unit outputs. It will accept speaker or line level

Rear L/R
For Factory Rear, Full Range Output
Subwoofer
For Factory Subwoofer Output
Note
: OUTPUT:
For full-range only, use outputs FRONT L2/R2
INPUT:
If there is a L/R pair of full range outputs available from the factory system (FRONT or REAR)
these should be used first and connected to inputs L2/R2 on the PXE-H660. If the factory 2-way
output must be used, connect Tweeter Left to L1,
Woofer Left
to
L2
,
Tweeter Right to R1, and
Woofer Right to R2.
