1.	Prepare all articles necessary for installing the source unit before starting.
2.	Install the unit within 30° of the horizontal plane. (Figure 2)
3.	If you have to do any work on the boat
body, such as drilling holes, consult
your boat dealer beforehand.
4.	Use the enclosed screws for installation.
	Using other screws can cause damage.

1.	This set is intended exclusively for use with a
negative ground 12V power supply.
2. Read these instructions carefully.
3.	Be sure to disconnect the battery “terminal” before
starting. This is to prevent short circuits during
installation. (Figure 1)

3) General Precautions
1.	Do not open the case. There are no
user serviceable parts inside. If you
drop anything into the unit during
	installation, consult your dealer or an
authorized Clarion service center.

2.	Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the case.
Never use a rough cloth, thinner,
benzine, or alcohol etc. For tough dirt,
apply a damp soft cloth and wipe dirt
off gently.
Figure 4
CAUTION
Drill appropriately prepared holes at the 4 places for fixing the screw depending on the materials
and plate thickness of the panel.
6) Cautions on Wiring
1.	Be sure to turn the power off when wiring.
2.	Be particularly careful where you route the wires.
	Keep them well away from the engine, exhaust pipe, etc. Heat may damage the wires.
3.	If fuse is blown, check that the wiring is correct.
	If it is, replace the fuse with a new one with the same amperage rating as the original one.
4.	To replace the fuse, open the lock on the source unit side, remove the old fuse and insert the
new one. (Figure 6)
*	There are various types of fuse cases. Do not let the battery side terminal touch other metal
parts.
Note:
Some boat models require special mounting kits for proper installation.
Consult your Clarion dealer for details.

1.	Insert the source unit into the cutout hole until to the end. (Figure 5)
2.	Using the supply screws (M4 × 30) to secure the source unit. (Figure 5)
3.	Using support strap to secure the source unit on the back side by supply M4 nut.

• Connecting to External Amplifiers
External amplifiers can be connected to the 4 channel RCA output connections.
	Ensure that the connectors are not grounded or shorted to prevent damage to the unit.
•	If M608 is connected as a MULTI-ZONE system with Zone 3 and Zone 4 RCAs connected to amplifiers, do not switch M608 to STANDARD mode.
	Doing so will cause the Zone 3 amplifier to reproduce only low frequencies and the
Zone 4 amplifier to reproduce full range frequencies at maximum volume.
This may result in potential speaker and/or hearing damage.
•	If M608 is connected as a TOWER configuration with Fixed/Zone4 RCAs connected
to an amplifier, do not switch M608 to STANDARD mode. Doing so will cause Fixed/
Zone4 amplifier to reproduct a full range of frequencies at maximum volume. This may
result in potential speaker and/or hearing damage.
