SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Fuse amplifier's power wire at the battery. Be sure to fuse the power wire within 12" of the car's battery. This will protect the car's battery in case of a short circuit between the power amplifier and battery. THIS IS A MUST, the amplifier's built-in fuse will only protect the power amplifier not the car's battery! Use high grade wire connectors. To ensure maximum power transfer and secure safe connections, it is recommended to use high grade barrier sp

FEATURES AND BENEFITS DC Offset Protection This circuit protects the output of the amplifier against DC voltage. If for some reason DC voltage is detected at the output stage, the amplifier will shut down protecting the speakers from direct current. Short Circuit Protection The circuit protects the amplifier from damage due to a short found in the speakers or wiring. If one of the speakers or its wiring comes in contact with ground, the amplifier will shut down. To resume normal operation

Bass Boost For added low frequency performance the amplifiers are equipped with a variable 0~12 dB bass boost @ 45Hz. (BA 400 only) Power Fusing This protects the amplifier against short circuits and excessive current. Remote Turn-on Automatically turns amplifier on when connected to the head unit's remote output. The amplifier will turn on and off with the head unit to save current consumption. This control also operates the reset circuit for the amplifier's protection. It must be

SIGNAL CONNECTIONS Connect the RCA output of the head unit (AM/FM cassette player, CD, or DAT) to the RCA input terminals of the amplifier. To make these connections, we recommend high quality RCA cables, which are available at your local car audio retailer. Run signal wires away from electrical wires to avoid possibility of induced noise from the car's electrical system (i.e. popping noises or engine noise). Please note that when making these connections the signal inputs correspond with

HIGH LEVEL CONNECTIONS (OPTIONAL) High Level inputs have been included to connect the amplifier to a radio without low-level outputs (i.e. factory radio). This connection will allow you to connect directly to the speaker output of the radio with out the need of an external adapter. Determine the type of radio you have and make one of the following connections. CAUTION! Before making any connections determine the type of radio to avoid possible damage to amplifier and/or radio. 8

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS (BRIDGED) The Baja amplifiers are capable of being bridged in a mono configuration. This feature allows you the flexibility of using the amplifier to drive a ** subwoofer or a center channel. In this configuration the amplifier sums the right and left channel to deliver one channel (mono) output. Please note: in order for the amplifier to sum right and left signal information, both right and left RCA connections must be made. **CAUTION! In the bridged mode, the amp

TROUBLE SHOOTING THE SYSTEM We have put together this trouble-shooting guide if you experience problems after installing the amplifier. Please keep in mind that the majority of problems incurred are caused by improper installation and not the equipment itself. In addition, there are many components in the system that could cause various signal problems such as inducted electrical noise and engine noise. Before you can properly address the problem, you must first find the component that is
