Of the two lead wires connected to the back lamp, connect
the one in which the voltage changes when the gear shift
is in the REVERSE (R) position. This connection enables
the unit to sense whether the car is moving forwards or

CAUTION
Secure all wiring with cable clamps or electrical tape.
Do not allow any bare wiring to remain exposed.
Do not directly connect the yellow lead of this product
to the vehicle battery. If the lead is directly connected
to the battery, engine vibration may eventually cause
the insulation to fail at the point where the wire
passes from the passenger compartment into the
engine compartment. If the yellow lead’s insulation
tears as a result of contact with metal parts, short-
circuiting can occur, resulting in considerable danger.
It is extremely dangerous to allow cables to become
wound around the steering column or shift lever. Be
sure to install this product, its cables, and wiring
away in such so that they will not obstruct or hinder
driving.
Make sure that the cables and wires will not interfere
with or become caught in any of the vehicle’s moving
parts, especially the steering wheel, shift lever,
parking brake, sliding seat tracks, doors, or any of the
vehicle’s controls.
Do not route wires where they will be exposed to
high temperatures. If the insulation heats up, wires
may become damaged, resulting in a short circuit or
malfunction and permanent damage to the product.
Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection
circuit (fuse holder, fuse resistor or filter, etc.) may
fail to work properly.
Never feed power to other electronic products by
cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of
this product and tapping into the lead. The current
capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing
overheating.

Before installing this product

Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding
only. Failure to do so may result in a fire or malfunction.
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to discon-
nect the (–) battery cable before installation.

To prevent damage

WARNING
Use speakers over 50 W (output value) and between
4Ωto8Ω(impedancevalue).Donotuse1Ωto3Ω
speakers for this unit.
The black cable is ground. When installing this unit
or power amp (sold separately), make sure to connect
the ground wire first. Ensure that the ground wire is
properly connected to metal parts of the car’s body.
The ground wire of the power amp and the one of this
unit or any other device must be connected to the car
separately with different screws. If the screw for the
ground wire loosens or falls out, it could result in fire
generation of smoke or malfunction.

To avoid short-circuiting, cover the disconnected lead with
insulating tape. It is especially important to insulate all
unused speaker leads, which if left uncovered may cause a
short circuit.
For connecting a power amp or other devices to this product,
refer to the manual for the product to be connected.

Notice for the blue/white lead

When the ignition switch is turned on (ACC ON), a control
signal is output through the blue/white lead. Connect to an
external power amp’s system remote control terminal, the
auto-antenna relay control terminal, or the antenna booster
power control terminal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC). The control
signal is output through the blue/white lead, even if the
audio source is switched off.
