1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.NOTE: Check your vehicle's owner's manual before disconnecting the battery.Disconnecting the battery in some vehicles may require an anti-theft code whenreconnecting for stereo operation. Some vehicles may run rough after reconnectingthe battery and require service to have the on-board computer reset. Check withyour local dealer if you are uncertain.2. Run suitable AWG wire to where the amplifier will be mounted (run 1 foot extra thanyou think you will need). Use rubber grommets where wires will pass through thefirewall or other areas of the vehicle. Make certain a fuse holder is placed within 18inches of the vehicle battery ā this is mandatory. Do not place a fuse in the fuseholder at the battery at this time.3. Mount the amplifier on a flat surface. Since a flat surface in a modern vehicle is oftendifficult to find, an alternative is to cut a piece of 1/2 inch wood slightly larger thanthe amplifier mounting area (covered with automotive type carpeting). Mount thepiece of wood, and then mount the amplifier to the carpeted wooden mount.4. Ground the amplifier using the same AWG wire size used for the power cable. Makesure the ground location is a clean, unpainted metal surface.5. Run the RCA and Remote turn-on lead to the amplifier from the head unit.6. Run speaker wires (16 AWG or larger) from your speakers to the amplifier.7. Place a suitable size fuse in the fuse holder at the battery.8. Ensure that the input level control is set to "0.3V".9. Turn on the head unit and make appropriate amplifier adjustments.JPA600D/JPA1000D Digital Amp Quick Start GuideRemote /Power AntennaTurn-on WireRCA CableNeed help?For technical assistance, callthe Jensen customersupport line at 1-800-323-4815.Fuse Block or Fuse HolderMinimum Wire Size:+12V - 8 AWGGround - 8 AWGCHASSIS GROUND(+)BATTERY-( )GND+12V REM+ +AMPCAR STEREO /SOURCE UNITSPEAKERS ( )( )(+)(+)LRPREAMP / CROSSOVERMAIN INPUT
