In the following, "NW" represents network mode and "STD" represents standard mode.
According to the connections you have established, change the speaker mode to standard mode (STD) or network mode (NW).

  • When speaker output is used by 4 channels, use speakers rated over 50 W (maximum input power) and between 4 Ω to 8 Ω (impedance value). Do not use 1 Ω to 3 Ω speakers for this unit.
  • When rear speaker output is used by a 2 Ω subwoofer, use speakers rated for over 70 W.
    * Please refer to connections for a connection method.
  • burn hazard The black cable is ground. When installing this unit or power amp (sold separately), make sure to connect the ground wire first.
    Ensure that the ground wire is properly connected to metal parts of the car's body.
    The ground wire of the power amp and the one of this unit or any other device must be connected to the car separately with different screws. If the screw for the ground wire loosens or falls out, it could result in fire, generation of smoke or malfunction.

    *1 Not supplied for this unit

  • When installing this unit in a vehicle without an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition switch, failure to connect the red cable to the terminal that detects operation of the ignition key may result in battery drain.
    Installation with/without the accessory position
  • burn hazard Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding only. Failure to do so may result in a fire or malfunction.
  • To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or malfunction, be sure to follow the directions below.
    • Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery before installation.
    • Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. Wrap adhesive tape around wiring that comes into contact with metal parts to protect the wiring.
    • Place all cables away from moving parts, such as the shift lever and seat rails.
    • Place all cables away from hot places, such as near the heater outlet.
    • Do not connect the yellow cable to the battery by passing it through the hole to the engine compartment.
    • Cover any disconnected cable connectors with insulating tape.
    • Do not shorten any cables.
    • Never cut the insulation of the power cable of this unit in order to share the power with other devices. The current capacity of the cable is limited.
    • Use a fuse of the rating prescribed.
    • Never wire the negative speaker cable directly to ground.
    • Never band together negative cables of multiple speakers.
  • When this unit is on, control signals are sent through the blue/white cable. Connect this cable to the system remote control of an external power amp or the vehicle's auto-antenna relay control terminal (max. 300mA 12 V DC). If the vehicle is equipped with a glass antenna, connect it to the antenna booster power supply terminal.
  • Never connect the blue/white cable to the power terminal of an external power amp. Also, never connect it to the power terminal of the auto antenna. Doing so may result in battery drain or a malfunction.
  • The graphical symbol placed on the product means direct current.

Installing the microphone

The microphone should be placed directly in front of the driver at a suitable distance to pick up their voice clearly.


It is extremely dangerous to allow the microphone lead to become wound around the steering column or shift lever. Be sure to install the microphone in such a way that it will not obstruct driving. It is recommended to use the clamps (sold separately) to arrange the lead.

NOTE
Depending on the vehicle model, the microphone cable length may be too short when you mount the microphone on the sun visor. In such cases, install the microphone on the steering column.

To install on the sun visor

  1. Fit the microphone lead into the groove.
