NOTE 9 HPF FREQUENCY control Sets the cutoff frequency when the FILTER switch is set to HPF. 8 LPF FREQUENCY control Sets the cutoff frequency when the FILTER switch is set to LPF. Refer to "Specifications" on the center unit’s instruction manual about the pre-out level. 1 INFRASONIC FILTER switch When this switch is ON, the frequencies which are below the audible range and therefore inaudible are cut off so that the quality of the audible frequencies can be improved. 4 OPERATION switch This switch is used to select the operation mode of the amplifier. (Bass management system) switch Bass boost centered on the frequency set by the B. € MONO (Lch) position: Amplifies the signal input from the left side only. (Make connections to the LEFT channel 9 and the RIGHT channel · When multiple speakers are to be connected, ensure that the combined impedance is 4Ω or greater. 2CAUTION The rated input of the speakers should be no less than the maximum output of the amplifier. ^ RCA cable ground lead terminal When using an RCA cable with a ground lead attached, connect the ground lead to this terminal. Only Kenwood center unit models sold in 1999 or later with a "EXT. Also, a maximum of 3 power amplifiers can be operated at the same time.

Connect the power wire, power control wire and grounding wire following this order. 2CAUTION • If sound is not output normally, immediately turn power off and check connections. [. . . ] € For the power cord and ground, use a vehicle type (fireproof) power wring cord with a current capacity greater than the unit’s fuse capacity. ) • When more than one power amplifier are going to be used, use a power supply wiring wire and protective fuse of greater current-handling capacity than the total maximum current drawn by each amplifier. While pressing the lock release button with a slotted screwdriver, insert the wire. ) (Stereo Connections) (Bridged Connections) ■ Speaker Selection • The rated input power of the speakers that are going to be connected should be greater than the maximum output power (in Watts) of the amplifier.
