•This unit is designed for negative ground 12 V
DC operation only.
•Do not get the wires under a screw, or caught
in moving parts (e.g. seat railing).
•Before making connections, turn the car
ignition off to avoid short circuits.
•Connect the yellow and red power input leads
only after all other leads have been connected.
•Run all ground wires to a common ground
point.
•Be sure to insulate any loose unconnected
wires with electrical tape for safety.
•The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
Notes on the power supply cord (yellow)
•When connecting this unit in combination with
other stereo components, the connected car
circuit’s rating must be higher than the sum of
each component’s fuse.
•When no car circuits are rated high enough,
connect the unit directly to the battery.

Notes on the control and power supply leads
• The power antenna control lead (blue) supplies
+12 V DC when you turn on the tuner.
• When your car has built-in FM/AM antenna in the
rear/side glass, connect the power antenna control
lead (blue) or the accessory power input lead (red)
to the power terminal of the existing antenna
booster. For details, consult your dealer.
• A power antenna without relay box cannot be
used with this unit.
Memory hold connection
When the yellow power input lead is connected,
power will always be supplied to the memory circuit
even when the ignition key is turned off.
Notes on speaker connection
• Before connecting the speakers, turn the unit off.
• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 8 ohms,
and with adequate power handling capacities to
avoid its damage.

chassis, or connect the terminals of the right
speakers with those of the left speaker.
• Do not connect the ground lead of this unit to the
negative (–) terminal of the speaker.

speaker wires installed in your car if the unit shares
a common negative (–) lead for the right and left
speakers.
• Do not connect the unit’s speaker cords to each
other.
