Choose the mounting location carefully so the unit will not interfere with the normal movements of the driver and it will not be exposed to direct sunlight or hot air from the heater. Do not mount the unit in a confined space such as under the floor carpet that will obstruct heat dissipation. Before making any connections, disconnect the ground (earth) terminal of the car battery to avoid short circuits. Be sure to use speakers with an adequate power rating. If you use small capacity speakers, they may be damaged. Do not connect the terminal of the speaker system to the car chassis, and do not connect the terminal of the right speaker with that of the left speaker. Install the input and output cords away from the power supply wire. Running them close together may generate interference noise. This unit is a high powered amplifier. Therefore, it may not perform to its full potential if used with the speaker cords supplied with the car. If your car is equipped with a computer system for navigation or some other purpose, do not remove the ground (earth) wire from the car battery. If you disconnect the wire, the computer memory may be erased. To avoid short circuits when making connections, disconnect the +12 V power supply wire until all the other wires have been connected. Mounting the unit First, place the unit where you plan to install it, and mark the positions of the 4 screw holes on a mounting board (not supplied). Then drill a 3 mm (1/8 in) pilot hole at each mark and mount the unit onto the board with the supplied mounting screws. The mounting screws are all 20 mm (13/16 in) long, so make sure that the mounting board is thicker than 20 mm (13/16 in). Making the terminal connections Pass the wires through the cap, connect the wires, then cover the terminals with the cap. Note When you tighten a screw, be careful not to apply too much torque as doing so may damage the screw (the torque value should be less than 1 N•m). 7GB XM-GS6DSP 4-733-364-11(1) D:\Sony\#Work\880191S_XM-GS6DSP(UC)\4733364111\4733364111XMGS6DSPUC\01GBXMGS6DSPUC\040CD.fm masterpage: Left 010COV.book Page 8 Wednesday, November 1, 2017 4:27 PM Power connections Connect the +12 V power supply wire only after all the other wires have been connected. Be sure to connect the ground (earth) wire of the unit securely to a metal point of the car. A loose connection may cause a malfunction of the amplifier. When using a car audio unit without a remote output (REMOTE OUT) for the amplifier, connect the remote input (REM) terminal to the accessory power supply. Use a power supply wire with a fuse (60 A) attached. All power wires connected to the positive battery post should be fused within 450 mm (17 3/4 in) of the battery post, and before they pass through any metal. Make sure that the car’s battery wires connected to the car (ground (earth) to chassis) are of a wire gauge at least equal to that of the main power wire connected from the battery to the amplifier. During full-power operation, a current of more than 60 A will run through the system. Therefore, make sure that the wires to be connected to the +12 V and GND terminals of this unit are at least 8-Gauge (AWG-8) or have a sectional area of more than 8 mm² (11/32 in²).
