Connecting to Power
When connecting the stereo to power, you must connect both
power wires. You should connect the yellow power wire directly
to the battery. This provides power to the stereo and a constant
trickle-power standby feed.
You should connect the red ignition wire to the same battery
through the ignition or another manual switch to turn the stereo
on and off. If you are not routing the red wire through the ignition
or another manual switch, you can connect the red wire to the
yellow wire, and connect them both to the positive (+) battery
terminal.
You must connect the power wires to the battery through a 15 A
fuse or a 15 A circuit breaker.
If it is necessary to extend the yellow power and black ground
wires, use 14 AWG (2.08 mm
2
) wire. For extensions longer than
1 m (3 ft.), use 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) wire. If it is necessary to
extend the red wire, use 22 AWG (0.33 mm
2
) wire.
1
Route the yellow power , red ignition , and black ground
wires to the battery, and route the wiring-harness plug to
the stereo.
Do not connect the wiring harness to the stereo until all of the
bare wire connections have been made.
2
Connect the black wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
3
If you are routing the red wire through the ignition or another
manual switch , connect the red ignition wire to the ignition
or switch.
4
Connect the red wire to the yellow wire, install a 15 A fuse
as close to the battery as possible, and connect both wires to
the positive (+) battery terminal.
NOTE: If you are running the red wire through a fused switch,
it is not necessary to connect the red wire to the yellow wire
or to add an another fuse to the red wire.
Speaker Zones
You can group speakers in one area into a speaker zone. This
enables you to control the audio level of the zones individually.
For example, you could make the audio quieter in the cabin and
louder on deck.
Up to two pairs of speakers can be connected per channel of
each zone, in parallel. One zone can support no more than four
speakers using the on-board amplifier.
Zones 1 and 2 are powered by the on-board amplifier. Zone 3 is
available as a line-level output only. To use the RCA line output
and the RCA subwoofer output for zone 3, you must connect an
external amplifier.
You can set the balance, volume limit, tone, subwoofer level,
subwoofer frequency, and name for each zone, and configure
other zone-specific settings.
