本機僅可安裝在以直流 12 V 供電，負極接地的車內。
在安裝本機之前，拔開電池的負極端子，並把所有電路都連接好。
連接最大功率大於 50 W 的揚聲器（阻抗為 4 Ω – 8 Ω）。 否則，請切換 <AMP GAIN> 設定。 （參閱使用
說明書的第 15 頁。）
用絕緣帶或其他類似材料使未接上的電線絕緣。為防止電源短路，請勿除去未接上電線或端子兩端的保護蓋。
JVC汽車音響分銷商或配套元件供應公司詢問。
• If you have any questions or require information regarding installation kits, consult your JVC car audio
dealer or a company supplying kits.
• The unit can only be installed in a car with a 12 V DC power supply, negative ground.
• Disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.
• Connect speakers with a maximum power of more than 50 W (impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω). Otherwise,
change the <AMP GAIN> setting. (See page 15 of the INSTRUCTIONS.)
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar material. To prevent a short circuit, do not
remove the caps on the ends of the unconnected wires or the terminals.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires are not touching to cause a short circuit, then replace the old
fuse with one that has the same rating.
