User manual KENWOOD CAW-CT7090

[. . . ] Do not remove caps from unconnected cables or connectors to prevent short circuits. · Connect the speaker cables to appropriate speaker connectors separately. Sharing the negative cable of the speaker or grounding speaker cables to the metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail. · After installation, check that the brake lamps, winkers, and wipers work properly. Installation Self-tapping screw (ø4 × 16 mm) Installation board, etc. [. . . ] As generally accepted positions for its installation, places such as inside the trunk, etc. (Optional. ) Length 0. 5m 1m 2m 4m 5m 6m Type RCA cable CA-2SL CA-12SL CA-22SL CA-52SL RCA cable (ø7mm) CA-3WL CA-13WL CA-23WL CA-53WL RCA cable (ø12mm) CA-5W CA-15W CA-25W CA-45W CA-65W 2CAUTION · Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged. · Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once installed, do not place any object on top of the unit. · After installing the unit, check to make sure that electrical equipment such as the brake lamps, turn signal lamps and windshield wipers operate normally. · Install the unit securely in a location that does not interfere with driving. 3 Controls Operations of the following control and switches are required in accordance with the center unit and speakers connected with this unit.

(Frequencies above 80 Hz are cut. ) The Lch and Rch will be mixed before output even if the operation switch is set to STEREO. · OFF position The original sound without filtering is output. 3 OPERATION switch This switch allows selection of the amplification method of input signals. · STEREO position The amplifier can be used as a stereo amplifier. · MONO (Lch) position Amplifies the signal input from the left side only. Set to this position and make bridged connections to use as a high-power monaural amplifier. (The input right signal is not output. ) 4 INPUT SENSITIVITY control Set this control according to the pre-output level of the center unit connected with this unit, or to the maximum power output of the genuineaccessory car stereo.

Prepare commercially-available coil and capacitor with the closest ratings to the results calculated from the formula above. The capacitor rating should be as close as possible to 331. 25 (µF) and the coil rating should be as close as possible to 5. 3 (mH). 2CAUTION Coil (L): Passes low frequencies and blocks high frequencies. (Low pass) Capacitor (C): Passes high frequencies and blocks low frequencies. (High pass) 159000 C= (µF) fc=Cut of Frequency (Hz) fc x R R=Speaker Impedance () 159 x R L= (mH) fc If you wish to bridge-connect a speaker, the speaker impedance must be no less than 4 ohms. Connecting a speaker with an impedance lower than 4 ohms may damage the unit. 8 Troubleshooting Guide What might appear to be a malfunction in your unit may just be the result of slight misoperation or miswiring. Before calling service, first check the following table for possible problems. (No sound from one side. ) POSSIBLE CAUSE · Input (or output) cables are disconnected. [. . . ] · Protection circuit may be activated. · The fuse may be blown because the volume was too high. The input sensitivity adjusting control is not set to the correct position. · The speakers cable are connected with wrong + / polarity. [. . . ]
