User manual BLAUPUNKT THA 1400

[. . . ] The Blaupunkt editors are constantly working on making the operating instructions clearer and easier to understand. However, if you still have any questions on how to operate the equipment, please contact your dealer or the telephone hotline for your country. You will find the hotline telephone numbers printed at the back of this booklet. We provide a manufacturer guarantee for our products bought within the European Union. [. . . ] The cross-section of the positive and negative cable must be at least 10 mm2. A power amplifier's performance is only as good as its installation. Proper installation will maximise the overall performance of your audio system. We recommend that you have our product installed professionally. Should you decide to install the amplifier yourself, however, please read through these instructions carefully, and take your time over the installation. Finally, a word about your health: please bear in mind when playing music in your car that sustained sound levels above 100 dB can damage your hearing and may even result in total hearing loss. Modern highperformance systems and high-quality loudspeaker configurations are quite capable of generating noise levels above 130 dB. Use the Blaupunkt ISO Cinch adapter to connect the amplifier to car radios with ISO connector (7 607 893 093 / 7 607 855 094). Fit a fuse in the amplifier power line no more than 30 cm from the vehicle battery, in order to protect the battery in the event of a short-circuit between it and the power amplifier. We recommend a cable cross-section of not less than 10 mm2. run a standard commercial positive cable to the battery and connect to the fuse holder. Use cable grommets when passing cables through holes with sharp edges. Bolt a standard commercial negative cable to a ground point free of induced noise (car body bolt, body panel) - not to the negative battery pole. Clean the contact surface of the ground point down to bare metal and coat with antiseize graphite petroleum. Integral fuses The integral fuses within the amplifier protect the final stage and the entire electrical system in the event of a fault. Never bridge fuses or replace fuses with a higher current rating. As with any audio component, connection of the amplifier and speakers with the correct polarity is essential for good bass reproduction. If, for example, you wish to drive a pair of subwoofers, connect in accordance with the low-pass diagram (Fig. 6) Before installation, adjust the position of the CONFIG switch on the power amplifier in order to set the frequency coverage of the signal that is sent to the loudspeakers and the RCA output jacks. LP/LP position: In this switch position, the bass range that is limited by the crossover frequency control (LP FREQ) is sent to the subwoofer as well as to the RCA OUTPUT. [. . . ] The Level control is however not a volume control; an increase in volume is not achieved in the maximum position, even if this subjectively appears to be the case. The system merely increases the volume more quickly when the volume is turned up on the radio. Infraljudfiltret kan kopplas till för att skydda lågbasen mot mekanisk överbelastning till följd av ljud med frekvenser som inte längre kan höras. Därför är det viktigt att vid anslutningarna se till att förstärkarens plusledning (+) kopplas till högtalarens plusledning (+); samma sak gäller för minusledningarna (-). [. . . ]
