2. Sikkerhedsoplysninger
Overhold altid følgende sikkerhedsforanstaltninger for at forhindre personskade eller beskadigelse af ampløfter eller køretøj:
- Frakobl køretøjets negative batteripol, før du påbegynder nogen form for installation.
- Sørg for korrekt jordforbindelse til køretøjets chassis.
- Brug passende ledningsføring til strøm- og jordforbindelser som angivet i installationsafsnittet.
- Protect all wiring from sharp edges and pinch points.
- Monter ikke ampopbevar apparatet på steder, der er udsat for direkte sollys, overdreven varme, fugt eller støv.
- Monter sikkert amplifier to prevent it from coming loose during sudden stops or impacts.
- Undgå at betjene amplifier at excessively high volume levels for prolonged periods, which can damage hearing or speakers.
- Hvis du er usikker på nogen del af installationsprocessen, skal du kontakte en kvalificeret fagmand.
3. Opsætning og installation
Korrekt installation er afgørende for din ydeevne og levetid ampFølg disse trin omhyggeligt.
3.1 Strømforsyningsledninger
Refer to the diagram below for correct power supply connections. Always use the specified wire gauges and ensure all connections are secure.
Image 3.1: Power Supply Wiring Diagram. This diagram illustrates the correct method for connecting the amplifier to the vehicle's power system, including the battery, fuse, and ground connections. Ensure the fuse capacity matches the amplifers krav.
Vigtig: The total fuse capacity of the amplifier must be installed and the specified wire length. For detailed information, refer to the "Power Supply" section in the owner's manual. Always connect the power wire directly to the positive battery terminal and the ground wire to a clean, unpainted metal surface on the vehicle chassis.
- Battery (BATT): Connect to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle battery via an appropriate fuse.
- Fjernbetjening (REM): Connect to the remote turn-on output of your head unit.
- Jord (GND): Connect to a clean, unpainted metal part of the vehicle chassis.
- Speaker Output (SPK OUT): Connect to your subwoofer(s).

3.2 Lydindgangsforbindelser
The S-A60M supports both low-level (RCA) and high-level (speaker wire) inputs.
- Lavniveauindgang (RCA): Tilslut RCA-kabler fra din hovedenheds subwoofer- eller full-range pre-outs til amplifier's INPUT (L/R) terminals.
- Input på højt niveau: If your head unit does not have RCA outputs, connect speaker wires from your head unit's speaker outputs directly to the amplifier's high-level input terminals (if available, or use a line output converter).

4. Betjening af Amplivligere
Når den er installeret, skal du justere ampLifier-indstillinger for optimal lydgengivelse.
4.1 Justering af indgangsniveau
- Indstil INPUT NIVEAU switch to "LO" for low-level (RCA) inputs or "HI" for high-level inputs.
- Juster GEVINST control to match the output of your head unit. Start with the gain at minimum, play a familiar track, and slowly increase the gain until distortion is heard, then back off slightly.
4.2 LP Filter (Low-Pass Filter)
The LP Filter allows only frequencies below the set point to pass through to the subwoofer. This is essential for proper subwoofer integration.
- Juster LP-FILTER knob to set the desired crossover frequency (e.g., 80Hz-120Hz is common for subwoofers).
4.3 Bass EQ
The Bass EQ provides a boost to specific bass frequencies.
- Juster BAS EQ knob to increase or decrease bass output. Use sparingly to avoid distortion and speaker damage.
4.4 Remote Bass Control (Optional RUX-KNOB.2)
If you have the optional Alpine RUX-KNOB.2 remote bass control, connect it to the REMOTE BASS CONTROL port på amplifier. This allows for convenient, on-the-fly adjustment of subwoofer output from the driver's seat.
5. Vedligeholdelse
Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse sikrer din bils levetid og optimale ydeevne amplivligere.
- Rensning: Tør regelmæssigt af ampRengør ydersiden af apparatet med en blød, tør klud. Undgå at bruge skrappe kemikalier eller slibende rengøringsmidler.
- Forbindelser: Annually check all power, ground, and speaker connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion. Loose connections can lead to poor performance or damage.
- Ventilation: Sørg for ampKøleribberne er fri for blokeringer for at muliggøre korrekt varmeafledning.
6. Fejlfinding
Hvis du oplever problemer med din ampLifier, se følgende tabel, før du søger professionel hjælp.
| Symptom | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Ingen strøm/Ingen lyd | Blown fuse, loose power/ground connection, remote wire not connected, amplifier i beskyttelsestilstand. | Check fuses (on amplifier and in power line), verify all power and ground connections, ensure remote wire is connected to head unit's remote output, check for overheating or short circuits. |
| Forvrænget lyd | Gain set too high, improper input level switch setting, damaged speaker, poor signal source. | Reduce gain, ensure INPUT LEVEL switch matches input type (LO/HI), check speaker wiring and condition, test with a different audio source. |
| No bass output | LP Filter set too high/low, Bass EQ set too low, subwoofer wiring issue. | Adjust LP Filter to appropriate frequency, increase Bass EQ if desired (with caution), verify subwoofer connections and impedance. |
| Ampkøleren overophedes | Insufficient ventilation, improper impedance load, gain set too high. | Sørg for tilstrækkelig luftgennemstrømning omkring ampLifier, verificer højttalerimpedansoverensstemmelser amplifier's capabilities, reduce gain setting. |
