6. Prepare the Remote turn-on wire for for attachment to the amplifier by stripping 5/8" of insulation
from the end of the wire. Insert the bared wire into the REMOTE terminal and tighten the set screw
to secure the wire in place. Connect the other end of the Remote wire to a switched 12 volt positive
source.The switched voltage is usually taken from the source unit's remote amp on lead. If the source
unit does not have this output available, the recommended solution is to wire a mechanical switch in
line with a 12 volt source to activate the amplifier.
7. Securely mount the amplifier to the vehicle or amp rack. Be careful not to mount the amplifier on
cardboard or plastic panels. Doing so may enable the screws to pull out from the panel due to road
vibration or sudden vehicle stops.
8. Connect from source signal by plugging the RCA cables into the input jacks at the amplifier.
NOTE:All “ACTIVE” inputs must have RCA jacks connected. Switch in 2CH. position,“ACTIVE” - Front
channel inputs only.Switch in 4CH. position,“ACTIVE” - All Front and Rear channel inputs.When
connecting to the 4-Channel inputs, be sure to route both front and rear RCA cables tightly
together.
CAUTION:Always ensure power is off or disconnected at the amplifier before
connecting RCA cables. Failure to do so may cause injury, damage to the
amplifier and/or connected components.
9. Connect the speakers. Strip the speaker wires 1/2" and insert into the speaker terminal and tighten
the set screw to secure into place. Be sure to maintain proper speaker polarity. DO NOT chassis
ground any of the speaker leads as unstable operation may result.
10. Perform a final check of the completed system wiring to ensure that all connections are accurate.
Check all power and ground connections for frayed wires and loose connections which could cause
problems. Install inline fuse near battery connection.
NOTE:Follow the diagrams for proper signal polarity.
