CLIPPING INDICATOR
The Bass Boost Remote unit has a built-in clipping indicator. Clipping means
that the amplifier is sending out a square wave. This type of output is all
distortion that can and will damage you amplifier and/or speakers wired to
the amplifier. This type of damage is not considered a manufacturer defect
and so is not covered under warranty. Causes of clipping could be setting the
gain and/or bass boost too high, low voltage from the electrical system,
problems with the source unit outputs among other things. You nee dto make
sure to remedy the problem if it accurs. The plastic circle around the adjust-
able remote knob will light up blue during normal operation. When the
amplifier starts to clip the signal output the color will change to red.

WARNING

Investigate the layout of your automobile thoroughly before drilling or cutting any holes.
Take care when you work near gas tanks, gas lines, hydraulic lines, and electrical wiring.
Do not use the power amplifier unmounted. Attach the system securely to the automobile
to prevent damage, particularly in the event of an accident. Do not mount the system
so that the wire connections are unprotected or are subject to pinching or damage
from nearby objects.
The +12V DC power wire must be fused at the battery positive terminal connection.
Before making or breaking power connections at the system power terminals,
disconnect the +12V wire at the battery end. Confirm your radio/head unit and/or other
equiptment is turned off while connecting the input jacks and speaker terminals.
If you need to replace the power fuse, replace it only with a fuse identical to that
supplied with the system. Using a fuse of a different type or rating may result in damage to
this system which is not covered by the warranty.
