[. . . ] In addition, mount it in an area that will not prevent the unit from dissipating the heat. • Do not mount the unit in the places subject to heat: near a radiator, in a glove compartment or Onto the trunk floor in insulated areas such as under a car mat that Under the front seat will prevent the unit from dissipating heat. • When mounting the unit under the front seat, make sure that adjusting the seat position will not catch any wire of the unit. TERMINAL CONNECTIONS When making terminal connections, properly fix each terminal with the provided screw by turning it as illustrated. • Use ring terminals (not provided) for secure connection. Notes • Make sure the screw is fixed in place to prevent disconnections. • Avoid over-tightening as it may cause the damage to the screw or its head slot. ı Install the unit Provided screw φ 4 × 20 mm (13/16 in. ) • When mounting this unit, be sure to use the provided screws. • If any other screws are used, there is a risk of loosening the unit or damaging the parts under the car floor. • Before drilling holes in the trunk to install the unit, make sure that there is a sufficient space under the trunk so that you do not drill holes in the fuel tank, etc. Drilled hole SPEAKER SYSTEMS Notes • Be sure not to connect the “·” terminals of the speakers to a common point. • If the same lead is used for both left/right or front/rear speaker wirings, this unit cannot be used. • Use the speakers with an impedance of 2 Ω to 8 Ω (4 Ω to 8 Ω: when used in Bridge Mode). The proper lead connected to each SPEAKER OUTPUT terminal is as follows. Notice: The sign Pb below the symbol for batteries indicates that this battery contains lead.

Select the appropriate connection referring to the following diagrams. KS-AX3102 2-speaker system—Normal Mode • Use the speakers with an impedance of 2 Ω to 8 Ω. Notes • Securely connect all the parts. If the connections are loose, due to contact resistance etc. , heat will break out and may cause an accident. • Run the connection leads under the car mats to prevent accidental disconnections. ı When your receiver is NOT equipped with line output.
