INTALLATION
1. Find a suitable location in the vehicle to mount the crossover.
2. Bolt the crossover to the mounting surface.
3. Using the screw terminals provided, connect minimum 16 gauge wire from the power,
Ground and remote terminals. Connect the shortest possible wire to a chassis ground point. The (+)
12V connection should be made directly to the car battery, and the remote should be connected to
the Remote Turn On Lead of your head unit. When connecting directly to the battery, install a 1A
Fuse within 18 inches of the battery terminal.
4. Connect all line inputs and outputs using high-quality RCA cables.
5. Recheck all connections before powering up.
6. Set all level controls to their minimum positions and set all crossover controls, switches, etc. To
the desired frequency or position.
7. Once the system is powered up, set the volume control on the head unit to a moderate level where
your normal speaking voice can be heard while the music is playing.
8. Further fine tuning of the various controls may be necessary to obtain the desired results.
9. When unsure about installation or system tuning, please consult an authorized LANZAR dealer.

CONTROLS AND OPERATION
1.POWER INPUT TERMINAL(12V): To be connected to the positive terminal of your vehicle battery or other constant +12V source.
2.GROUND INPUT TERMINAL: To be wired to the vehicle's chassis ground.
3.REMOTE TURN-ON INPUT TERMINAL(REMOTE): To be connected to the remote control wire or antenna lead of the source unit for remote ON/OFF.
4. POWER INDICATOR: This indicator lights up when the internal switching power supply is activated and the unit is operational.
5. LEFT/RIGHT FRONT CHANNEL SIGNAL INPUTS: To be connected to the front channel output of the source unit.
6. DUAL INPUT SWITCH
Set to “IN” position the input signals coming in through the front channel signal inputs are split and directed to the front and rear channels simultaneously. (This feature is to be engaged where the source unit has no separate front, rear or subwoofer channel outputs)
If the source unit has independent front and rear channel outputs, disengage the parrel input by sliding the switch to the “OUT” position
7. LEFT/RIGHT REAR CHANNEL SIGNAL INPUTS: To be connected to the rear channel outputs of the source unit. BUT MAKE SURE THAT THE DUAL INPUT SWITCH IS AT THE OUT POSITION.
8. LEFT/RIGHT DUAL IN/OUT TERMINALS
As Input Terminal:To be connected to the subwoofer output of the source unit.
As Output Terminal:To be connected to the front channel input terminal of another electronic
crossover in a multi-crossover system.

9. FRONT CHANNEL HIGH-PASS FREQUENCY SELECTOR: For selection of front channel high-pass crossover frequency between 32Hz and 800Hz (or 320Hz and 8KHz when its frequency multiplier is at x10 position).
10. REAR CHANNEL HIGH-PASS FREQUENCY SELECTOR: For selection of rear channel high-pass crossover frequency between 32Hz and 800Hz.
11. FRONT CHANNEL HIGH-PASS FREQUENCY EXTENDER: Positioning the switch at the x10 position changes, the range of selectable crossover frequency for the front channel high-pass from 32Hz to 800Hz, 320Hz - 8KHz.
12. REAR CHANNEL HIGH-PASS FREQUENCY EXTENDER: Positioning the switch at the x10 position changes, the range of selectable crossover frequency for the front channel high-pass from 32Hz to 800Hz,320Hz - 8KHz
.
13. SUBWOOFER FREQUENCY SELECTOR: For selection of the low-pass crossover frequency for the subwoofer channel between 50Hz and 160Hz.
14. BASS-BOOST FREQUENCY CONTROL: For setting the frequency (from 40Hz to 120Hz)at which the
BASS-BOOST circuitry generates frequency boost to equalize the woofer enclosure.
15. BASS-BOOST LEVEL CONTROL: For selection of the boost level (from 0 to +12 dB).
16. PHASE INVERTER: Positioning the switch to the 180 position shifts the subwoofer output signals 180 degrees out-of-phase relative to the front and rear output signals.
17. SUBWOOFER STEREO/MONO SWITCH: For selection of stereo or mono mode subwoofer output.
18. FRONT CHANNEL OUTPUT GAIN CONTROL: For adjusting the front channel output signal level.
19. LEFT/RIGHT FRONT CHANNEL OUTPUT TERMINALS: To be connected to the front channel amplifier left/right inputs.
20. REAR CHANNEL OUTPUT GAIN CONTROL: For adjusting the rear channel output signal level.
21. LEFT/RIGHT REAR CHANNEL OUTPUT TERMINALS: To be connected to the rear channel amplifier left/right inputs.
22. SUBWOOFER OUTPUT GAIN CONTROL: For adjusting the subwoofer channel output signal level.
23. LEFT/RIGHT SUBWOOFER OUTPUT TERMINALS: To be connected to the subwoofer channel amplifier left/right inputs.
24. SUBWOOFER OUTPUT LEVEL REMOTE CONTROL TERMINAL: To be connected to the remote control for exclusive maneuver of the subwoofer output level, and the subwoofer output level control on the unit (22 above) is by-passed.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
Symptom Possible remedy:
Signal Processor Check: does not turn on.
*Remote Turn-On wire has (+) 12V
*(+) 12V wire has (+) 12V
*Ground wire is properly connected:
Level of sound is low.
Check:
*Wiring is not loose or cables misconnected/disconnected
*RCA cables are not faulty
Background noise is too high.
Check:
*Wiring is not loose or cables misconnected/disconnected - ground is important
*RCA cables are not faulty
PRECAUTIONS
Enjoy your system, but use it wisely and safely!
* Never drive with the volume raised so high you cannot hear what is occurring in traffic around you.
* Be ware that repeated exposure to excessive volume levels can permanently damage your hearing!
* Keep all electronics away from moisture, dust, extreme heat or extreme vibrations.
