If activated by a rise in emperature, the unit will resume operation after cooling off to a normal operating range.
Note • The exposed conductor should be 5/16 inch (7 mm) to 7/16 inch (10 mm) long. – If shorter, it may cause a poor conductivity. – If longer, it may cause a short circuit. • Use a proper hex wrench for each terminal. – 4 mm: +B terminal and GND terminal – 3 mm: REM terminal and speaker terminals 2 Subwoofer system 2-subwoofer system (2 amplifi ers) 2-subwoofer system 4-speaker system plus subwoofer—5.1-channel (3 amplifi ers) Connection varies depending on the number of the speakers used in yo
If fuses blow consistently, carefully check all electrical connections to the unit. 5. Supply of adequate battery voltage is critical to the proper operation of the power amplifier. The leads to the battery and chassis ground must mustmustmustmustmust be of a thick enough gauge to provide this voltage to the amplifier. We recommend #10 #10#10#10#10#10 gauge wire or larger (smaller gauge #) for the battery and ground leads. 6. Make certain that the speaker(s) to be used with this amplifier is cap

Speaker Connections Depending on the type and number of speakers used with the amplifier, wire them to the speaker terminals as per the appropriate wiring diagram. For most applications, #18 gauge wire should be used for the speaker leads but in no case thinner than #20 gauge. For leads in excess of 10 feet, #16 gauge is recommended. When wiring the speakers, pay careful attention to the polarity of the terminals on the speakers and make certain they correspond to the polarity of the correspondi
Other uses might include limiting the low frequencies to smaller speakers (61/2", 6 X 9", etc.) by adjusting the crossover to a higher setting (80 – 100Hz). Crossover (X-OVER) The JPA series of amplifiers have built-in low-pass and highpass crossover filters for bi-amplifying the system. Adjust the crossover to accommodate your chosen installation method. Select LPF (low pass filter) when the amplifier will be driving woofers or subwoofers. Choose FULL when crossover mode is not active and the a
If the car stereo does not provide an Auto-Antenna lead, the remote turn-on lead may be wired to an "Accessory" or "Radio" terminal in the car's fuse block. This will turn the amplifier on and off with the ignition key, regardless of whether the car stereo is on or off. The remote turn-on lead does not carry large currents, so #20 gauge -4 wire may be used for this application. WIRINGINSTRUCTIONSWIRINGINSTRUCTIONS 4.

Use good quality shielded audio cables with RCA plugs at both ends to connect the stereo to the amplifier and keep the cable lengths to a minimum to avoid noise. If the car stereo does not provide low-level outputs, the amplifier may be connected via the speaker (high-level) outputs from the stereo. Wire the speaker leads from the car stereo to the 5-pin adaptor harnesses as shown in the diagram (shielded cable is not required for this application) and plug the connectors into the mating High-Le
