WIRING & CoNNECTIoNS
IMPoRTANT:
Before any wiring, always remove the negative terminal of the battery to
prevent short-circuiting. This is also the last lead to be (re-)connected.
Connect this lead only after having completed and checked all other connections. The battery
terminal (+12V) must be connected directly to the positive terminal of the vehicle battery to
provide an adequate voltage source and minimize noise. Connect it to the terminal of the bat-
tery after all other wiring is completed.
GRoUND CoNNECTIoN
The ground terminal (GND) connection is also critical to the correct operation of the ampli-
fier.
Use a wire of the same gauge as the +12V cable
and connect it between the ground
terminal (GND) of the amplifier and a metal part of the vehicle close to the mounting location.
This wire should be as short as possible and any paint or rust at the grounding point should
be scraped away to provide a clean metal surface to which the end of the ground wire can
be screwed or bolted.
REMoTE TURN-oN CoNNECTIoN
The amplifier is turned on by ap12V to the remote turn-on terminal (REM). The wire
lead to this terminal should be connected to the „Amp remote“ lead from the car stereo which
will provide the +12V only when the car stereo is turned on.
INPUT CoNNECTIoNS
This amplifier features both high level and low-level (RCA) input capability. Use either the
low-level or high-level inputs, not both. If the car stereo does not provide low-level outputs,
the amplifier may be connected via the speaker (high-level) outputs from the car stereo. Wire
the speaker leads from the car stereo to the 4-pin adaptor harness as shown in the diagram
(shielded cables are not required for this application) and plug the connector into the high
input connector on the amplifier.
Note:
When using the high-level input of your oE factory radiothat features no
dedicated REM signal, select ”Auto turn-on” oN.
