General mounting instructions
•As a precaution, it is recommended to disconnect the vehicles battery before mounting the amplifier.
Note: For new vehicles, disconnecting the battery might cause various errors in your vehicle´s electric
system that can be cleared only by authorized service partners of your vehicle´s manufacturer! Please
ask your service partner first before disconnecting the battery!
•The power supply wire (+12 V) has to be protected within max. 20 cm / 8” by a main fuse holder with
a fuse value matching the recommendation for your amplifier
Note: If there is more than one amplifier connected using this power wire, the main fuse value must be
equal to the sum of the recommended fuses of all connected devices. However, make sure the
diameter of your power wire will be enough for the required current!
•If necessary, replace a defective fuse by a fuse with identical quality and value
•Never drill holes to the vehicle´s gas tank, brake lines, to wirings or any other important vehicle parts!
•Never pass wires over sharp edges or vehicle parts due avoid any kind of damage
•Keep the wiring away from the antenna and electronic devices contributing to radio reception
•Lay the power supply wiring always separated from speaker wiring to avoid disturbance
•The amplifier contains a temperature protection circuit that turns the device off in case of overheating.
After a certain cooling time, it will turn on automatically. To avoid heat build-up, enough air supply for
cooling must be provided. Never cover the surface of the amplifier´s heatsink entirely
•The amplifier should NEVER be mounted onto a vibrating part or surface such as a subwoofer
enclosure. This might lead to malfunction due to loosened electrical parts inside the amplifier.
•Some amplifiers offer a high-level input option, however if a pre-amplified output (RCA) is available (at
the head unit), it is strongly recommended to make use of them.

Controls & Features
1
Speaker terminal
To connect the speaker wires - min. load 1 ohm
2
Power terminal
+12V To be connected to the positive terminal of the battery
REM To be connected to the remote output of the head unit*
(*not required in high-level mode)
GND To be connected to the vehicle´s ground
(or directly to the negative terminal of the battery)
3
Fuse(s)
If necessary to replace a defective fuse, its strongly recommended to
use a fuse with the identical value
4
Low pass filter
(Band pass filter)
To adjust the required crossover point. Frequencies above the selected
crossover point will be filtered (40 Hz to 4000 Hz)
5
Mode switch
To setup the crossover for the required use of the amplifier
FLAT entire frequency range will be reproduced
HPF only mid/high frequencies will be reproduced
LPF (BP) only low frequencies will be reproduced. The HPF is
activated simultaneously resulting in a band pass filter
6
High pass filter
(Subsonic filter)
To adjust the required crossover point. Frequencies below the selected
crossover point will be filtered (5 Hz to 500 Hz)
7
Sensitivity control
Controller to adjust the input sensitivity
8
Line input (RCA)
Input sockets to connect RCA wires
Important note: High-level and RCA inputs should
never
be used
simultaneously! This may cause serious damage to the amplifier
9
High-level input
Head units without RCA pre-amplifier output signal, can be connected
using the high-level input to connect the speaker output of the head
unit directly.
If used, the amplifier turns on automatically (auto-on feature)
The remote input of the power supply terminal remains unused
Important note: High-level and RCA inputs should
never
be used
simultaneously! This may cause serious damage to the amplifier
10
Status indication
POWER (green) ok (correct operation)
PROTECT (red) error (protection mode)
11
Remote wire socket
To connect the wired remote control
12
Bass Boost control
To adjust the bass boost level ( 0 to +12 dB @ 45 Hz)
