Loosen
the
hex
screw
in
a
terminal
with
a
provided
hex
wrench
and
insert
the
conductor
into
the
terminal.
Then
fix
the
hex
screw
again
to
secure
the
conductor
•
Note
• The exposedconductor should
be
5/16 inch
(7
mm) to 7/16 inch (10 mm) long.
- Ifshorter, it
may
cause a
poor
conductivity.
- If longer, it may cause a short circuit.
• Use
a proper hex wrench for each terminal.

This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE
ground
electrical
systems.
• This unit uses BTL (Balanced Transformerless) amplifier circuitry,
Le.,
floating ground system,
so please comply with the following:
Do
not connect the
"8"
terminals of the speakers to each other.
Do
not connect the
"8"
terminals of the speakers to the metal body or chassis.
• Cover the unused terminals with insulating tape to prevent them from short circuiting.
• When an extension lead is used, it shouid be as thick and short as possible; connect it firmly
with insulating tape.
•
Be
sure to leave
an
appropriate space between the antenna and the wires of this unit.
• When replacing the fuse, only use a 40 A fuse.
• Do not let pebbles, sand or metallic objects get inside the unit.
•
To
keep
the
heat dissipation mechanism running
effectively,
wipe
the
accumulated dust
off
periodically.
• Listening to the tape, radio, CD or Digital Audio Player, etc. with the volume set at a high level
for a long period of time will exhaust the battery, while the engine is turned off or while the
engine is idling.
• This unit becomes very hot.
Be
careful not to touch the unit not only when using but for a while
after using.
DO
NOT disassemble the units since there are
no
user serviceable parts inside.
•
Do
not
raise
the
volume
level
too much,
as
this will
block
outside sounds, making driving dangerous. POWER SUPPLY

INSTALLATION
The following illustration shows a typical installation. However, you should make adjustments
corresponding to your specific car. If
you
have any questions or require information regarding
installation kits, consult your JVC car audio dealer
or
a company supplying the kits.
® Mount this unit on a firm surface, such as
in
the trunk room or under the front seat.
• Since heat is generated
in
the unit, do not mount it near inflammable objects.
In
addition,
mount it
in
an area that will not prevent the unit from dissipating the heat.
•
Do
not mount the unit
in
the places subject to heat: near a radiator,
in
a glove compartment
or
in
insulated areas such as under a car mat that will prevent the unit from dissipating
heat.
When mounting the unit under the front seat, make sure that adjusting the seat position
will not catch any wire of the unit.
@ When mounting this unit, be sure to use the provided screws.
If
any other screws are used,
there
is
a risk of loosening the unit or damaging parts inside il.
• Before drilling holes
in
the trunk to install the unit, make sure that there is a sufficient
space under the trunk so that
you
do
not drill holes
in
the fuel tank, etc.
• Detach the control cover on the unit before mounting (see "CONTROLS" on page
3).
•
To
detach and rotate the Logo Plate 180 degrees, use the provided hex wrench (3 mm).
© When
you
use more than one KS-AR7000 series' amplifier,
you
can pile them up to three
with provided brackets, screws and washers
in
two ways, X or Y. Be sure to mount the lowest
amplifier
(CD)
primarily following @.
• Before piling amplifiers, attach the provided spacers to "+" on the bottom of the amplifiers
<V
and
Q).
• Fix the amplifiers on both sides with proper brackets as illustrated. Brackets (L) are used
only for the amplifier
Q).
• Before piling amplifiers as X, first make the connections for the power suppiy (see
"POWER SUPPLY") and speakers (see "SPEAKER CONNECTIONS" on page
2).
• It
is recommended to pile amplifiers as X so that
you
can easily operate the controllers on
each amplifier.
To
prevent
short
circuits
while
making
connections,
keep
the
battery's
negative
terminal
disconnected.
• When using a power cord (purchased separately), be sure to place the 40 A fuse near the
battery as shown.
• Connect the lead wire (power cord) through which power is supplied directly to the battery's
"$"
terminal only after all the other connections have been made.
The
proper
lead
wire connected to each POWER terminal is
as
follows.
• +
Band
GND: AWG 8 to AWG 4 (The cross section
is
about
8
mni'
t021
mni'.)
• REM: AWG
18
to AWG 8 (The cross section
is
about
0.8
mni'
t08
mni'.)
• If
you
have any questions regarding the thickness of the power cord, etc., consult your nearest
JVC car audio dealer.
@ When
you
use
JVC
car
receiver
with
a
remote
lead, connect to the REM terminal on this
unit.
(jii When
you
connect
a
unit
without
a
remote
lead, connect to the accessory circuit of the
car which is activated by the ignition switch.
In
this case, noise may occur when the car
receiver is turned on or off.
To
avoid this noise, do not turn on or off the car receiver itself.
You
can turn on or off the car receiver along with the on/off operation of the ignition switch.
If
the
POWER/PROTECTOR
lamp
lights
in red, it indicates incorrect speaker wiring or
connections (see "TROUBLESHOOTING" on page
3). Make sure to correct speaker wiring and
other connections.
SPEAKER SYSTEMS
Make sure to comply with the following notes:
• Be sure not to connect the
"8"terminals of the speakers to a common point.
•
If
the ground wire is common to both leWright and fronVrear speaker wirings, this unit cannot be
used. Always use the independent lead wires for the speakers to be used.
In
this case, redo the
wirings.
• Use the speakers with an impedance of
2 Q to 8 Q
(4
Q to 8
Q:
when used
in
Bridge Mode).
• Use the speakers which have sufficient capacity to the unit.
The
proper
lead wire
connected
to each SPEAKER OUTPUT terminal
is
as
follows.
AWG
18
to AWG 8 (The cross section
is
about 0.8
mni'
to 8
mni'.)
For KS-AR7004:
When you connect 4 speakers to the unit, down mixed signals (front and rear) are emitted
through the PRE OUT jacks.
For KS-AR7002:
Incoming signals are emitted through the PRE
OUT
jacks.
