4.2 Awọn isopọ onirin

Refer to the wiring diagram on the unit and in the full manual for specific connections. General steps include:

  1. Agbara (B+): Connect the main power wire (typically red) to the positive terminal of the vehicle's battery. Ensure an in-line fuse (not supplied, typically 15A as per product specifications, but verify with the unit's fuse holder) is installed close to the battery.
  2. Ilẹ (GND): Connect the ground wire (typically black) to a clean, unpainted metal surface of the vehicle chassis. Ensure a solid electrical connection.
  3. Tan-an isakoṣo jijin (REM): Connect the remote turn-on wire (typically blue or yellow) to the remote output of your head unit. This signal turns the subwoofer on and off with your car stereo.
  4. Iṣawọle Olohun:
    • RCA (Low-Level) Input: If your head unit has RCA pre-outs, connect them to the RCA inputs on the subwoofer.
    • Speaker Level (High-Level) Input: If your head unit does not have RCA outputs, connect the speaker wires from your head unit directly to the speaker level inputs on the subwoofer's wiring harness.
