If there is no power control
terminal in the audio com-
ponents, connect the blue/
white wire to the accessory
line (ignition key switch
ACC position line).
If buzzing noise is heard from the speakers when the engine
is running, attach a line noise filter (commercially available) to
the power lead.
Do not bend the vinyl-coated section
of the speaker cord. Otherwise, mal-
function may result.
Caution:
Do not distribute the cords in the paths
where they may be caught by a vehicle part
or damaged. Otherwise, an electric shock or
a fire due to short-circuiting may result.
Caution:
Connect the black lead wire ground terminal directly with a
screw to an unpainted metal part of the vehicle. Turning the
power ON without connecting this terminal is linked to dam-
age of the stereo system. Be sure to connect it.
Also, painted metal panels etc., are not grounded and will
not function correctly. Be careful.
