CONNECTING POWER

1. Ensure the negative (–) cable is

disconnected from your vehicle’s
battery.

2. Connect the crossover’s 

GND

(ground) terminal to a metal part
of the vehicle’s frame.

Caution: Do not connect the
ground wire to a non-metallic
(plastic) part, or to any part insu-
lated from the vehicle’s frame by
a non-metallic part.

3. Connect the crossover’s 

B+12V

(power) terminal directly to the
vehicle battery’s +12 volt termi-
nal.

4. Connect your autosound sys-

tem’s switched power lead wire
(usually orange) to the cross-
over’s 

REMOTE

 terminal. This

turns the crossover on and off
when you turn your autosound
system on and off.

Note: If your autosound system
does not have a switched power
lead wire, connect the cross-
over’s 

REMOTE

 terminal to a point

in your vehicle’s fuse box that
provides 12-volt battery power
only when the ignition is set to
ON or ACC.

5. Reconnect the cable to your vehi-

cle battery’s negative (–) terminal.
