on purchasing the High Speed Power Amplifier. The amplifier has been designed using the latest electronic technology available, allowing you to produce high quality stereo reproduction in mobile applications. This system provides you with low harmonic distortion, a huge considerable amount of reserve voltage and high temperature stability. Congratulations >< '" .... Just enjoy the perfect sound this amplifier takes to you! iii Do. INSTALLATION >< ...'".... * Since the amplifier is sensitive to electrical and motor noise and interference from the amplifier may affect your radio reception, try to mount it at least 3 feet away from the receiver. Good locations include under a seat, in the trunk or hatch area. Do. * Please remember this is a high power unit which generates high electrical energy and heat. Therefore be sure to install the unit in a place with sufficient airflow, a minimum of dust and no moisture. Allow enough space around the cooling fins to permit reasonable airflow and cooling. II is important to ensure that the cooling fins of the heat sink are not against a panel or a surface preventing air circulation. * Never mount the amplifier in a location that is subject to direct sunlight or exposed to moisture. Be sure to mount the amplifier to a strong, solid surface which will not give way under the stress of a sudden stop or accident. * When mounting the amplifier on a side wall, try to position it so that the slots in the cooling fins are vertical. Amplifier should not be mounted on the bottom of a rear deck with the fins facing down because the heat will radiate back up into the amplifier. Leave yourself enough room on either side of the amplifier to make all the wire connections and adjust the controls. If you have a subwoofer box in your vehicle, you can mount the amplifier on the outside of the box. ~ ::;: ... N c ~ C CD ..c u .!!! c ..c u {!!. N v X 3: ~ ~ -........ Do.

Before making any connections, disconnect the car's battery until the installation is completed to avoid possible damage to the electrical system o * The + 12V DC heavy insulation, Select the cable the same as the power since gauge + 12V cable should be heavy gauge stranded copper cable with it draws power directly from the positive battery terminal. at least 10mm'. And the ground cable gauge should be DC. * Connect the +12V Power terminal to the battery (+) position terminal. An in-line fuse must be installed in the +12V power cable near the battery less than 50mm. Without one, an accidental short circuit could pose a fire hazard and damage your amplifier. Connect the fuse holder to battery, however, do not install fuse at this time. CH'·O-CHI • • o Dill 11...,11 o * Connect the GROUND Power terminal direclly to the battery (-) position terminal or the car chassis. Ensure that all paint or other insulation is remove from around the hole area, and using self tapping screw, securely affix the bare wire ends to the vehicle chassis. Use as short as possible. * + CHZ 2-1' Ohm. CH1 2-1' Ohml SlIlMnlftlr 4-1' Ohml Many radio's and other music sources have an output terminal for connection of the remote turn on of the power amplifier. CONNECT the output terminal to the amplifier REM control jack. If a radio doesn't have a remote turn on feature, you can connect the REM pole to external switch for positive +12V ON/OFF. * To help minimize interference, it is best to run the power cables along the opposite side from the audio cables. Caution: The power cables must be connected tightly. A loose connection may cause malfunctions or interference noise or distortion. 2 CHANNEL AMPLIFIER - FEATURES 4 CHANNEL AMPLIFIER - APPLICATIONS PB715XJPB915XJPB2415X PB615X/PB1615X HIGH IN 4-CHANNEL MODE I ccepts speaker level inputs from radios that do not line level (RCA) outputsl BASS EQ Allows you to select the bass boost 6dB/t2dB LINE OUTPUT Allows you to connect additional amplifier High Pall variable High Pass Filter from 120Hz to 3KHz == ollillUUl \ [5JLL ~~~ o LOW IN Accepts line level (RCA)inputs from O. 1 to 1 volts fULL. = LOW PASS Variable Low Pass Filter from 50Hz to 250Hz o - - C H W CONTROLI CIiUIICOIITIlOU-- ~~~ 0 ." == u. .,w 1 ["§l'§l~11 POWEItOIIiPUT FUIE TI == '~EAKII!It ollillUUl OUTPIIT YJ.
