HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS. The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this product to have the work done. USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY. Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or product failure. ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE. Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent the wires insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR DUST. Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.

INSTALLATION

Due to the high power output of the MRP-F240/MRPT220, considerable heat is produced when the amplifier is in operation. For this reason, the amplifier should be mounted in a location which will allow for free circulation of air, such as inside the trunk. For alternate installation locations, please contact your authorized Alpine dealer. 1. Using the amplifier as a template, mark the four screw locations. 2. Make sure there are no objects behind the surface that may become damaged during drilling. 3. Drill the screw holes. 4. Position the MRP-F240/MRP-T220 over the screw holes, and secure with four self-tapping screws.
En raison de la sortie de puissance leve du MRP-F240/ MRP-T220, une forte chaleur est produite pendant le fonctionnement de l'amplificateur. Pour cette raison, l'amplificateur doit tre mont dans un endroit permettant une bonne ventilation, tel que le coffre. Pour ce qui concerne les diffrentes positions d'installation, contacter un concessionnaire Alpine. 1. Apposer l'amplificateur contre la surface d'installation pour marquer les repres des quatre vis. 2. Vrifier qu'il n'y a pas d'objets derrire la surface pouvant tre abms lorsque les trous soient percs. 3. Percer les trous pour les vis. 4. Positionner le MRP-F240/MRP-T220 par dessus les trous et fixer avec les quatre vis auto-taraudes.

INSTALACIN

Debido a la salida de alta potencia del MRP-F240/MRP-T220, se produce un calor considerable cuando el amplificador est en funcionamiento. Por esta razn, el amplificador deber montarse en una ubicacin que permita la libre circulacin de aire, como por ejemplo dentro del maletero. Para ubicaciones de instalacin alternativas, por favor contacte a su distribuidor de Alpine autorizado. 1. Utilizando el amplificador como plantilla, marque la ubicacin de los cuatro tornillos. 2. Asegrese de que no hay objeto alguno bajo la superficie que pueda verse daado durante la perforacin de los agujeros. 3. Perfore los agujeros para los tornillos. 4. Site el MRP-F240/MRP-T220 sobre dichos agujeros, y asegrelo con cuatro tornillos autorroscantes. NOTA: Para conectar de forma segura el cable de tierra, utilice un tornillo ya instalado en la parte metlica del vehculo (marcado (#)). Asegrese de que es un punto de tierra bueno verificando la continuidad con el terminal de la batera (). Conecte siempre que sea posible todo el equipo en el mismo punto de tierra. Esto ayudar a eliminar el ruido.

NOTE: To securely connect the ground lead, use an already installed screw on the metal part of the vehicle (marked (#)). Be sure this is a good ground by checking continuity to the battery () terminal. As much as possible connect all equipment to the same ground point. These procedures will help eliminate noise.
REMARQUE: Pour connecter solidement le conducteur de mise la terre, utiliser la vis dj fixe sur la partie mtallique du vhicule (signale (#)). Assurez-vous que ce point est une bonne mise la terre en vrifiant la continuit la borne de la batterie (). Si possible, connecter tout l'quipement au mme point de mise la terre. Ceci vous aidera liminer le bruit.

CONNECTIONS
Before making connections, be sure to turn the power off to all audio components. Connect the yellow battery lead from the amp directly to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle's battery. Do not connect this lead to the fuse block. To prevent external noise from entering the audio system. Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm away from the car harness. Keep the battery power leads as far away from other leads as possible. Connect the ground lead securely to a bare metal spot (remove any paint or grease if necessary) of the car chassis. If you add an optional noise suppressor, connect it as far away from the unit as possible. Your Alpine dealer carries various noise suppressors, contact them for further information. Your Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so consult your dealer for further information.
1 Speaker Output Terminals The MRP-F240/MRP-T220 has two sets of speaker outputs. Be sure to observe correct speaker output connections and phasing. In the stereo mode, connect the right speaker outputs to the right speaker and the left to left. Connect the positive output to the positive speaker terminal and the negative to negative.

4 Remote Turn-On Lead (Blue/White) (Sold Separately) Connect this lead to the remote turn-on or power antenna (positive trigger, (+) 12V only) lead of your head unit. 5 Battery Lead (Yellow) (Sold Separately) Be sure to add a #25 amp fuse as close as possible to the battery's positive (+) terminal. This fuse will protect your vehicle's electrical system in case of a short circuit. If you need to extend this lead, the wire gauge should be 8 AWG or larger. # MRP-F240. 25 amp fuse MRP-T220. 20 amp fuse
6 Pre-Out Jacks (MRP-F240 only) These jacks provide a Front + Rear summed output (Non-fading). This is an ideal output for driving a separate subwoofer amp. This output is full-range, and is not affected by the crossover.
7 RCA Input Jacks Connect these jacks to the line out leads on your head unit using RCA extension cables (sold separately). Be sure to observe correct channel connections; Left to Left and Right to Right. (Front to Front and Rear to Rear (except for MRPT220)) 8 Speaker Level Input Connector These leads are input leads for use with head units not equipped with preamp outputs. When not using the RCA Line Input connectors, you should connect these wires to the speaker output leads of your head unit. The MRP-F240/MRP-T220 accepts input from high power or standard power head units.
NOTE: Use either RCA line level or speaker level inputs. Do not connect both at the same time.
