Connecting the Units Note: • This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding. Before installing it in a recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery voltage. • To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the ≠ battery cable before beginning installation. • Refer to the owner's manual for details on connecting the power amp and other units, then make connections correctly. • Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape around wires that lie against metal parts. • Securely route all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake and seat rails. Do not route wiring through places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insulation of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a danger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle body. • Don't pass the yellow lead through a hole into the engine compartment to connect to the battery. This will damage the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous short. • Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should. • Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating. • When replacing the fuse, be sure to only use a fuse of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder. • To prevent incorrect connection, the input side of the IP-BUS connector is colored blue, and the output side is colored black. Connect the connectors of the same colors correctly. To safeguard from electromagnetic interference • In order to prevent interference, set the following items as far as possible from this unit, its cables or leads: - TV antenna and antenna lead - FM, AM antenna and its lead - GPS antenna and its lead In addition route each antenna lead as far as possible from other antenna leads. Do not bind them together, lay or route them together, or cross them over each other. Increased interference could lead to TV reception appearing fuzzy. • Cords for this product and those for other products may be different colors even if they have the same function. When connecting this product to another product, refer to the manuals supplied with both products and connect cords that have the same function.

Note:
This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and
negative grounding. Before installing it in a recre-
ational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery
voltage.
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to
disconnect the
battery cable before beginning
installation.
Refer to the owner’s manual for details on
connecting the power amp and other units, then
make connections correctly.
Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive
tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape
around wires that lie against metal parts.
Securely route all wiring so it cannot touch any
moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake and
seat rails. Do not route wiring through places that
get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insula-
tion of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a dan-
ger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle
body.
Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into the
engine compartment to connect to the battery. This
will damage the lead insulation and cause a very
dangerous short.
Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection
circuit may fail to work when it should.
Never feed power to other equipment by cutting
the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit
and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of
the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating.
When replacing the fuse, be sure to only use a fuse
of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.
To prevent incorrect connection, the input side of
the IP-BUS connector is colored blue, and the out-
put side is colored black. Connect the connectors
of the same colors correctly.
Cords for this product and those for other products
may be different colors even if they have the same
function. When connecting this product to another
product, refer to the manuals supplied with both
products and connect cords that have the same
function.
To safeguard from electromagnetic inter-
ference
In order to prevent interference, set the following
items as far as possible from this unit, its cables or
leads:
– TV antenna and antenna lead
– FM, AM antenna and its lead
– GPS antenna and its lead
In addition route each antenna lead as far as possi-
ble from other antenna leads. Do not bind them
together, lay or route them together, or cross them
over each other. Increased interference could lead
to TV reception appearing fuzzy.
