three-channel (stereo and mono) or two-chan-
nel (stereo or mono). Connect the speaker
leads based on the mode and the figures
shown below.

Notes
!If speaker input wires from a headunit are
connected to this amplifier, the amplifier will
automatically turn on when the headunit is
turned on. When the headunit is turned off,
the amplifier turns off automatically. This
function may not work with some headunits.
In such cases, please use a system remote
control wire (sold separately). If multiple am-
plifiers are to be connected together synchro-
nously, connect the head unit and all
amplifiers via the system remote control wire.
!This amplifier automatically selects an input
signal mode between the RCA level and the
speaker level by detecting an input signal.

Connecting the units
Solderless terminal
connections
!Since the wire may become loose over
time, it must be periodically inspected and
tightened as necessary.
!Do not solder or bind the ends of the
twisted wires.
!Fasten while making sure to not to clamp
the insulating sheath of the wire.
!Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to
tighten and loosen the terminal screw of
the amplifier and use it to securely fasten
the wire. Be careful to avoid excessive tigh-
tening of this screw, which may damage
the wire.
Connecting the power terminal
WARNING
If the battery wire is not securely fixed to the term-
inal using the terminal screws, there is a risk of
overheating, malfunction and injury, including
minor burns.
!Always use the recommended battery and
ground wire, which is sold separately. Con-
nect the battery wire directly to the boat
battery positive (+) terminal and the
ground wire to the boat body.
!Recommended wires size (AWG: American
Wire Gauge) is as follows. The battery wire,
the ground wire and the optional direct
ground wire must be same size.
!Use a wire of 12 AWG to 16 AWG wire for
the speaker wire.
1 Route battery wire from engine com-
partment to the boat interior.
!When drilling a cable pass-thru into a bulk
head or barrier wall, route the cable
through carefully and seal the hole to pre-
vent fumes from seeping from engine com-
partment to other areas.
After completing all other amplifier connec-
tions, finally connect the battery wire terminal
of the amplifier to the positive +battery term-
inal.

1Positive +terminal
2Battery wire (sold separately)
The maximum length of the wire between
the fuse and the positive +terminal of the
battery is 30 cm (12 in.).
3Fuse (60 A) (sold separately)
Each amplifier must be separately fused at
60 A.
2 Use wire cutters or a utility knife to
strip the end of the battery wire, ground
wire and system remote control wire to ex-
pose about 10 mm (3/8 in.) of the end of
each of the wires, and then twist the ex-
posed ends of the wires.
Twist
10 mm (3/8 in.)
3 Connect the wires to the terminal.

Before installing the amplifier
WARNING
!To ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the manner specified. If any parts
other than those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be-
come loose causing the amplifier to shut
down.
!Do not install in:
Places where injury could occur if the boat
stops suddenly.
Places where it may interfere with the
boat's operator.
!Install tapping screws in such a way that the
screw tip does not touch any wire. This is im-
portant to prevent wires from being cut by vi-
bration of the boat, which can result in fire.
!Make sure that wires do not get caught in the
sliding mechanism or touch the legs of a per-
son in the boat as short-circuit may result.
!When drilling to install the amplifier, always
confirm no parts are behind the panel and
protect all cables and important equipment
(e.g. cables, wiring, hoses, and modules) from
damage.
CAUTION
!To ensure proper heat dissipation of the ampli-
fier, ensure the following during installation:
Allow adequate space above the amplifier
for proper ventilation.
Do not cover the amplifier.
!Place all cables away from hot places, such
as near the heater outlet.
!The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the boat model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.
!Check all connections and systems before
final installation.
