LIFIER 10 GAUGE Thicker if planning for additional Amplifiers wire is recommended for both the power and ground wires 10 Gauge for the remote turn on wire Both types are available at most Mobile Audio Dealers or Installation Shop 1 Ground To Vehicle Chassis To avoid unwanted ignition noise caused by ground loop it is essential that the Amplifier be grounded to a clean bare metal surface of the vehicle s Chassis NOTE GROUND WIRE SHOULD NOT BE EXTENDED MORE THAN 3 FT 1 METER 2 12 Volt Fused Constant Power To Battery Due to the power requirements of the Amplifier this connection should be made directly to the positive terminal of battery For safety measures install an in line Fuse Holder not included as close to the battery positive terminal as possible with an ampere rating not to exceed total value of fuses in Amp 3 Remote Turn On Input To remote turn on output of Car Stereo This Amplifier 1s tumed ON remotely when the vehicle s stereo is turned ON NOTE IF YOUR RADIO DOES NOT HAVE A 12 VOLT OUTPUT LEAD WHEN THE RADIO IS TURNED ON THE REMOTE TERMINAL ON THE AMPLIFIER CAN BE CONNECTED TO VEHICLE S ACCESSORY CIRCUIT THAT IS LIVE WHEN THE KEY IS ON Remote Tur ON Is connected to Radio s power antenna lead or a switchable 12V Vehicle chassis ground POWER INPUT PANEL LAYOUT AQA430SL AQA430WT FRONT VIEW ar we 3 K a os T wa gt 8 ESO MIN MAX a Bao2. TION ARR ONO 12 WARNING ciones 13 PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM Before beginning the installation consider the following 1 Do you plan to add additional mobile electronics equipment in the future If you plan to expand your system by adding other components sometime in the future ensure adequate space Is left and cooling requirements are met 2 Should you use high or low level inputs Your Amplifier has been designed to accept Low Level Pre Amp outputs from your radio source signal If your radio source is equipped with Pre Amp outputs it is possible to utilize them to drive the Amplifier and the 2 front speakers Then use the built in power of your radio to drive the 2 rear speakers 3 Are your components matched The RMS power rating of your speaker s must be equal or greater than the RMS power rating of your amplifier Your speaker s also must be 2 8 Ohms impedance for stable amplifier operation Impedance information is normally printed on the speaker basket or magnet 4 Where will the amplifier be installed Consider both the length of your leads and routing when determining the mounting location It is best to run power and RCA wiring on opposite sides of the vehicle to prevent induced noise Pre amp input jacks require a length of high quality shielded male to male RCA patch cord CONNECTING THE POWER CAUTION AS A PRECAUTION DISCONNECT THE POWER WIRE FROM THE BATTERY WHILE MAKING THE POWER AND GROUND CONNECTIONS TO THE AMP
