The diagram on Page 4 shows the connections that need to be made to add: Subwoofer (RCA jacks
sold separately)
Amplifier (SPDT relay E-123 required) or
Additional Amp (RCA jacks sold separately).
Note: The interface provides a 12-volt 1-amp output to turn on aftermarket amp(s). If installing
multiple amps, an SPDT automotive relay will be required if the amp turn-on current of all amps
combined exceeds 1-amp. Use Metra part number E-123 (sold separately) for best results.

Crossover Adjust
• Selecting High Pass and Low Pass will provide one crossover frequency adjustment.
Selecting Band Pass will provide two crossover frequency adjustments: one for low pass,
and one for high pass.
• Select the desired crossover slope per channel, 12db, 24db, 36db, or 48db.
• Select the desired crossover frequency per channel, 0hz to 100khz.
