User manual ALPINE MRP-F300

[. . . ] OWNER'S MANUAL Please read this manual to maximize your enjoyment of the outstanding performance and feature capabilities of the equipment, then retain the manual for future reference. Please read this OWNER'S MANUAL thoroughly to familiarize yourself with each control and function. We at ALPINE hope that your new MRP-F600/MRP-F300 will give you many years of listening enjoyment. In case of problems when installing your MRP-F600/ MRP-F300, please contact your authorized ALPINE dealer. [. . . ] Do not connect this lead to the fuse block. Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm (3-15/16") away from the car harness. ⷠKeep the battery power leads as far away from other leads as possible. ⷠ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. Do not connect this lead to the vehicle's chassis. Do not connect speaker leads together or to chassis ground. 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. Only use }}21mm 2 (the wire gauge) for this connection. 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. This is an ideal output for driving a separate subwoofer amp. This output is fullrange, and is not affected by the crossover. [. . . ] Using this connection method, the MRP-F600/MRP-F300 will turn on and stay on as long as the ignition switch is on. If this is objectionable, a SPST (Single Pole, Single Throw) switch, in addition to the 3A fuse mentioned above, may be installed in-line on the MRP-F600/ MRP-F300 turn-on lead. This switch will then be used to turn on (and off) the MRP-F600/MRP-F300. Therefore, the switch should be mounted so that is accessible by the driver. [. . . ]
