When the audio components output is a single RCA jack,
use an RCA cord that converts the output into the two
RCA jacks as shown above. The subwoofer output will be
halved if the conversion cord is not used.
RCA input connection
Connect the subwoofer to the subwoofer output (non-fader output) or the RCA jacks for the front output of the
audio components.
Notes:
Read the instruction manuals for the connected components such as the audio components as well as this instruction
manual.
In a computer-equipped vehicle, when you remove the
terminal of the battery, the memory may disappear, or a defect
may occur in the electrical system of the vehicle. Consult your dealer for further details.
Please purchase an RCA cord that is commercially available separately.
When the audio components incorporates a DSP, connect the subwoofer to the subwoofer output (non-fader output) or to
the RCA jacks for the front output. Do not connect to the RCA jacks for the rear output, as the low-frequency reproduction
effect may be attenuated due to the DSP effect.

If there is no power control
terminal in the audio com-
ponents, connect the blue/
white wire to the accessory
line (ignition key switch

If buzzing noise is heard from the speakers when the engine
is running, attach a line noise filter (commercially available) to
the power lead.
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.

not function correctly. Be careful.
