Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion--and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: · Start your volume control at a low setting. · Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level: · Set the dial and leave it there. Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment.

Decibel Level 30 40 50 60 70 80 Example Quiet library, soft whispers Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.

Front image enhancer (F.I.E.)
The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a simple method of enhancing front imaging by cutting mid- and high-range frequency output from the rear speakers, limiting their output to low-range frequencies. You can select the frequency you want to cut.

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 them where they lie against metal parts. · Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake and seat rails. Do not route wiring in 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 fuse, be sure to use only fuse of the rating prescribed on this unit. · Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed, never wire so the speaker leads are directly grounded or the left and right speaker leads are common. If you ground the products together and the ground becomes detached, there is a risk of damage to the products or fire. · The black lead is ground. Please ground this lead separately from the ground of high-current products such as power amps. If you ground the products together and the ground becomes detached, there is a risk of damage to the products or fire. · Speakers connected to this unit must be highpower types with minimum rating of 50 W and impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting speakers with output and/or impedance values other than those noted here may result in the speakers catching fire, emitting smoke, or becoming damaged. · When this product's source is switched ON, a control signal is output through the blue/white lead. Connect to an external power amp's system remote control or the car's Auto-antenna relay control terminal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC). If the car features a glass antenna, connect to the antenna booster power supply terminal. · When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the blue/white lead to the amp's power terminal. Likewise, do not connect the blue/white lead to the power terminal of the auto-antenna. Such connection could cause excessive current drain and malfunction. · To avoid short-circuiting, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. Especially, insulate the unused speaker leads without fail. There is a possibility of short-circuiting if the leads are not insulated. · If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition switch, the red lead of the unit should be connected to a terminal coupled with ignition switch ON/OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery may be drained when you are away from the vehicle for several hours. (Fig. 1)

Installation
Note:
· Before finally installing the unit, connect the wiring temporarily, making sure it is all connected up properly, and the unit and the system work properly. · Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts can cause malfunctions. · Consult with your nearest dealer if installation requires the drilling of holes or other modifications of the vehicle. · Install the unit where it does not get in the driver's way and cannot injure the passenger if there is a sudden stop, like an emergency stop. · The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it overheats, so don't install the unit anywhere hot -- for instance, near a heater outlet. · If installation angle exceeds 60° from horizontal, the unit might not give its optimum performance.
