Before connecting/

installing the amplifier

WARNING

!The use of a special red battery and ground

wire RD-223, available separately, is recom-

mended. Connect the battery wire directly to

the car battery positive terminal +and the

ground wire to the car body.

!This unit is for vehicles with a 12 V battery and

negative grounding. Before installing in re-

creational vehicles, trucks or buses, check the

battery voltage.

!Always use a fuse of the rating prescribed.

The use of an improper fuse could result in

overheating and smoke, damage to the pro-

duct and injury, including burns.

!Check the connections of the power supply

and speakers if the fuse of the separately sold

battery wire or the amplifier fuse blows. Deter-

mine and resolve the cause, then replace the

fuse with identical equivalent.

!Do not allow this unit to come into contact

with liquids. Electrical shock could result.

Also, damage to this unit, smoke, and over-

heating could result from contact with liquids.

The surfaces of the amplifier and any attached

speakers may also heat up and cause minor

burns.

!In the event of any abnormality, the power

supply to the amplifier is cut off to prevent

equipment malfunction. If this occurs, switch

the system power OFF and check the power

supply and speaker connections. If you are un-

able to determine the cause, please contact

your dealer.

!Always disconnect the negative *terminal of

the battery beforehand to avoid the risk of

electric shock or short circuit during installa-

tion.

CAUTION

!Always keep the volume low enough so that

you can hear sounds from outside the vehicle.

!Extended use of the car stereo while the en-

gine is at rest or idling may exhaust the

battery.

What’s what

Front side

Rear side

To adjust the switch, use a flathead screwdri-

ver if needed.

1Power indicator

The power indicator lights up to indicate

power ON.

2BFC (beat frequency control) switch

Located front side the unit. If beats are audi-

ble while listening to AM broadcasts via car

stereo, change the BFC switch using a small

flathead screwdriver.

3GAIN (gain) control

Adjusting gain controls CHANNEL A (chan-

nel A) and CHANNEL B (channel B) helps

align the car stereo output to the Pioneer

amplifier. Default setting is the NORMAL

position.

If output remains low, even when the car

stereo volume is turned up, turn controls to

lower level. If distortion occurs when the car

stereo volume is turned up, turn these con-

trols to higher level.

!If using only one input plug, set the gain

controls for speaker outputs A and B to

the same position.

!For use with an RCA equipped car stereo

(standard output of 500 mV), set to the

NORMAL position. For use with an RCA

equipped Pioneer car stereo, with max.

output of 4 V or more, adjust level to

match that of the car stereo output.

4LPF (low-pass filter)/HPF (high-pass fil-

ter) select switch

Switch the settings based on the connected

speaker.

!When the Subwoofer is connected:

Select LPF. This eliminates high range

frequency and outputs low range fre-

quency.

!When the full range speaker is con-

nected:

Select HPF or OFF.HPF eliminates low

range frequency and output high range

frequency. OFF outputs the entire fre-

quency range.

5INPUT SELECT (input select) switch

Select 2CH for two-channel input and 4CH

for four–channel input.

Setting gain properly

!Protective function included to prevent

malfunction of the unit and/or speakers

due to excessive output, improper use or

improper connection.

!When outputting high volume sound etc.,

this function cuts off the output for a few

seconds as a normal function, but output

is restored when the volume of the head

unit is turned down.

Setting the Unit

Section

!A cut in sound output may indicate impro-

per setting of the gain control. To ensure

continuous sound output with the head

unit at a high volume, set amplifier gain

control to a level appropriate for the preout

maximum output level of the head unit, so

that volume can remain unchanged and to

control excess output.

!Despite correct volume and gain settings,

the unit sound still cuts out periodically. In

such cases, please contact the nearest

authorized Pioneer Service Station.

Gain control of this unit

Preout level: 2 V

(Standard: 500mV)

Above illustration shows NORMAL gain set-

ting.

Relationship between amplifier gain

and head unit output power

If amplifier gain is raised improperly, this will

simply increase distortion, with little increase

in power.

Signal waveform when outputting at

high volume using amplifier gain

control

Signal waveform distorted with high output, if

you raise the gain of the amplifier the power

changes only slightly.

Connect male terminal of this wire to the sys-

tem remote control terminal of the car stereo

Before connecting the

amplifier

WARNING

!Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhe-

sive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap sections

in contact with metal parts in adhesive tape.

!Never cut the insulation of the power supply

to feed power to other equipment. Current ca-

pacity of the wire is limited.

CAUTION

!Never shorten any wires, the protection circuit

may malfunction.

Connecting the units

Section

!Never ground speaker wire directly or band to-

gether multiple speakers’negative (*) lead

wires.

!If the system remote control wire of the ampli-

fier is connected to the power terminal via the

ignition switch (12 V DC), the amplifier will re-

main on with the ignition whether the car

stereo is on or off, which may exhaust battery

if the engine is at rest or idling.

!Install and route the separately sold battery

wire as far as possible from the speaker wires.

Install and route the separately sold battery

wire, ground wire, speaker wires and the am-

plifier as far away as possible from the anten-

na, antenna cable and tuner.

About bridged mode

Speaker impedance is max. 4 W, please carefully

check. Improper connection to the amplifier may

result in malfunction or personal injury due to

burns from overheating.

For bridged mode for a two-channel amplifier,

with a 4 Wload, either wire two 8 Wspeakers in

parallel, Left +and Right *(Diagram A) or use a

single 4 Wspeaker. For other amplifiers, please

follow the speaker output connection diagram for

bridging shown on rear: two 8 Wspeakers in par-

allel for a 4 Wload or a single 4 Wspeaker per

channel.

For any further enquiries, contact your local

authorized Pioneer dealer or customer service.

About suitable

specification of speaker

Ensure speakers conform to the following

standards, otherwise there is a risk of fire,

smoke or damage. Speaker impedance is 2 W

to 8 W,or4Wto 8 Wfor two-channel and other

bridge connections.
