Safety precautions
2WARNING
Take the following precautions to prevent fire and avoid personal injury :
* When extending the battery cable, or ground cable, use 5mm2 (AWG10) or larger automotive grade cable to avoid cable deterioration or damage to the covering. * Check that no metal objects (coins, tools, etc.) are left inside the unit to avoid short circuits. * If you smell or see smoke, turn the power off immediately and consult your Kenwood dealer. * Do not touch the unit during use because the surface of the unit becomes hot and may cause burns if touched.
* Do not open the top or bottom cover. * Do not install the unit in places it is exposed to direct sunlight, high heat or humidity, water may splash over it, or dust exists.
NOTE
* If you have difficulty in installing this unit in your vehicle, contact your Kenwood dealer.
Cleaning the unit
* If the surface is dirty, wipe it clean with a silicon cloth or soft dry cloth with the power off.
2CAUTION
Do not use hard cloths or paint thinner, alcohol, or other volatile solvents. These may damage external surfaces or remove indicator characters.
Take the following precautions to keep the unit in proper working order.
* Be sure the unit is connected to a 12V DC power supply with a negative ground connection.

Installation procedure
1. Remove the ignition key and disconnect the negative - terminal of the battery to prevent short circuits. 2. Set the unit according to the intended usage. 3. Connect the input and output cables of the units. 4. Connect the speaker cables. 5. Connect the power cable, power control cable and grounding cable following this order. 6. Install the unit in the car. 7. Connect the negative - terminal of the battery. 2CAUTION
Installation
Self-tapping screw (o4 x 16 mm)
Installation board, etc. (thickness : 15 mm or more) * Since the power amplifier has no parts which require operation, it can be installed at a position away from the driver's seat without any hindrances. As generally accepted positions for its installation, places such as inside the trunk, etc. can be considered. * Use the extension cables. (Optional.) Length 0.5m 1m 2m 4m 5m 6m Type RCA cable CA-2SL CA-12SL CA-22SL CA-52SL RCA cable (o7mm) CA-3WL CA-13WL CA-23WL CA-53WL RCA cable (o12mm) CA-5W CA-15W CA-25W CA-45W CA-65W 2CAUTION * Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged. * Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once installed, do not place any object on top of the unit. * After installing the unit, check to make sure that electrical equipment such as the brake lamps, turn signal lamps and windshield wipers operate normally. * Install the unit securely in a location that does not interfere with driving.

* Be sure to turn the power off before changing the setting of any switch. * If the fuse blows, check cables for shorts, then replace the fuse with one of the same rating. * Check that no unconnected cables or connectors are touching the car body. Do not remove caps from unconnected cables or connectors to prevent short circuits. * Connect the speaker cables to appropriate speaker connectors separately. Sharing the negative cable of the speaker or grounding speaker cables to the metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail. * After installation, check that the brake lamps, winkers, and wipers work properly.

* STEREO position:
The amplifier can be used as a stereo amplifier.
* L+R position:
The input left and right signals are combined before being amplified. Use this position when the unit is used for subwoofer speakers or the L+R (monaural) sound is required.
* MONO (Lch) position:
Amplifies the signal input from the left side only. Set to this position and make bridged connections to use as a high-power monaural amplifier. (The input right signal is not output.)

Troubleshooting guide
Often, what appears to be a malfunction is due to user error. Before calling for service, please consult the following table. Symptom
No sound. (No sound from one side.)
Cause
* Input (or output) cables are disconnected. * Protection circuit may be activated. * The fuse may be blown because the volume was too high. The input sensitivity adjusting control is not set to the correct position. * The speakers cable are connected with wrong + / polarity. * A speaker cable is pinched by a screw in the car body.
Remedy
* Connect the input (or output) cables. * Check connections by referring to "Protection function". * Replace the fuse with a new fuse and use a lower volume. Adjust the control correctly referring to "Controls". * Connect them properly checking the + / - of the terminals and cables well. * Connect the speaker cable again so that it is not pinched by anything. * Set switches properly by referring to "Controls" and "System examples".
The output level is too small (or too large). The sound quality is bad. (The sound is distorted.)
