4 EnglishControls / Indicator(W)3040201025u v w xtp sqyrq1 FILTER switchThis switch allow filtering of the speaker outputsignals.• OFF position:The original sound without filtering is output.• LPF (Low Pass Filter) position:Only frequencies of 80 Hz or lower are output.(Frequencies above 80 Hz are cut.)The speaker output is automatically switched tomonaural (L+R).2 INPUT SENSITIVITY controlSet this control according to the pre-output levelof the center unit connected with this unit, orto the maximum power output of the genuine-accessory car stereo.Use the diagram on the right as a guide.NOTEFor the pre-output level or the maximum poweroutput, refer to the in theinstruction manual of the center unit.3 LINE IN terminal4 Speaker level input terminalsNOTE• The genuine-accessory car stereo shall have amaximum power output of no more than 40 W.• Do not connect the speaker output leads froma power amplifier (Optional) to the speakerlevel input terminals of this unit, for this maycause malfunction or damage.• Do not connect cables and leads to both RCAcable input jacks and the speaker level inputterminals simultaneously, for this may causemalfunction or damage.• Connect the power control lead to a powersupply which can be turned ON/OFF bythe ignition key switch (ACC line). With thisconnection, shock noise may be generatedwhen the power of the genuine-accessory carstereo is switched ON/OFF.5 Fuse (25 A)6 Battery terminal7 Ground terminal8 Power control terminalControls the unit ON/OFF.NOTEControls the unit power. Be sure to connect it withall the systems.9 Speaker output terminals• Stereo Connections:When you wish to use the unit as a stereoamplifier, stereo connections are used.The speakers to be connected should have animpedance of 2Ω or greater. When multiplespeakers are to be connected, ensure that thecombined impedance is 2Ω or greater for eachchannel.• Bridged Connections:When you wish to use the unit as a high-output monaural amplifier, bridgedconnections are used. (Make connections tothe LEFT channel 9 and the RIGHT channel ·SPEAKER OUTPUT terminals.)The speakers to be connected should have animpedance of 4Ω or greater. When multiplespeakers are to be connected, ensure that thecombined impedance is 4Ω or greater.2CAUTIONThe rated input of the speakers should be noless than the maximum output of the amplifier.Otherwise malfunction may result.
