CAUTION • If sound is not output normally, immediately turn power off and check connections. • Be sure to turn the power off before changing the setting of any switch. • If the fuse blows, check wires for shorts, then replace the fuse with one of the same rating. • Check that no unconnected wires or connectors are touching the car body. Do not remove caps from unconnected wires or connectors to prevent short circuits. • Connect the speaker wires to appropriate speaker connectors separately. Sharing the negative wire of the speaker or grounding speaker wires to the metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail. • After installation, check that the brake lamps, winkers, and wipers work properly. 7 About the Lead Terminals 1.
