User manual ALPINE MRP-F600

[. . . ] Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc. [. . . ] ⷠConnect the ground lead securely to a bare metal spot (remove any paint or grease if necessary) of the car chassis. ⷠIf you add an optional noise suppressor, connect it as far away from the unit as possible. Your Alpine dealer carries various noise suppressors, contact them for further information. ⷠYour Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so consult your dealer for further information. Be sure to observe correct speaker output connections and phasing in relation to the other speakers in the system. Do not use the speaker (­) terminals as a common lead between the left and right channels. Use a Y-adaptor (sold separately) for the input when bridging the outputs. (Refer to the "Bridge Connections" on page 13) 2 Power Supply Terminal 3 Ground Lead (Sold Separately) Connect this lead securely to a clean, bare metal spot on the vehicle's chassis. Verify this point to be a true ground by checking for continuity between that point and the negative (­) terminal of the vehicle's battery. Ground all your audio components to the same point on the chassis to prevent ground loops. 4 Remote Turn-On Lead (Sold Separately) Connect this lead to the remote turn-on or power antenna (positive trigger, (+) 12V only) lead of your head unit. 5 Battery Lead (Sold Separately) Be sure to add a }75 amp fuse as close as possible to the battery's positive (+) terminal. This fuse will protect your vehicle's electrical system in case of a short circuit. If you need to extend this lead, only use }}21mm 2 (the wire gauge) for this connection. 7 RCA Input Jacks Connect these jacks to the line out leads on your head unit using RCA extension cables (sold separately). Be sure to observe correct channel connections; Left to Left and Right to Right. 8 Speaker Level Input Connector These leads are input leads for use with head units not equipped with preamp outputs. When not using the RCA Line Input connectors, you should connect these wires to the speaker output leads of your head unit. The MRP-F600/MRP-F300 accepts input from high power or standard power head units. 9 Speaker Input Leads These leads are input leads for use with head units not equipped with preamp outputs. The MRP-F600/MRP-F300 accepts input from high power or standard power head units. Cautions on wire lead connections (MRP-F600 only) When using third-party wire cables (power supply wire), use the supplied screws to simplify the connection. [. . . ] Using a loud cassette or preferably a CD as a source, turn up the head unit volume until it distorts. You can then increase amplifier gain until the sound from the speakers becomes distorted. - Bass EQ Selector Switch (3/4 ch) Set to "ON" position when using for driving subwoofer. NOTE: The following problems may occur if the amp is not properly connected. [. . . ]
