1. 1 WATT S1 OHM RESISTOA Power up procedures eupolied After installing the capacitor according the directions on the previous page follow these instructions for powering up and charging the capacitor This procedure is extremely important to perform and eliminates the possibility of damaging the capacitor battery and other audio devices _ CABLE FROM 1 Connect the ground cable to the capacitor BATTERY terminal POSITIVE 2 Temporarily attach the resistor suppbed with the capacitor to the power cable using electrical tape to secure the connection Charging the capacitor 3 SEE FIGURE 2 AT RIGHT Holding the power cable securely place the free end of the resistor on the terminal of the capacitor While this is occurring the status LED will be illuminated and the red decimal point will flicker indicating that the system is charging the capacitor When the capacitor is fully changed the decimal point will no longer flicker and the display will show the DC voltage of the car charging system 4 Remove the tape detach the resistor from the power cable and attach the power cable securely to the capacitor terminal Digital display features FOT VORIAGE EPLAY 5 Pul the resistor in a safe storage location as Dace e DC vota yor eara cg you Will need it in the future when you need to discharge the capacitor STU LED Thin ineciarcatee Pacha ahan eer cebir by corey CAUTION When you turn of2. d operation of this product Please read it carefully before you attempt to install and use this capacitor Contents Unpacking your capacitor system Operating Features Installation Wiring guidelines Power Up procedures The power capacitors role Reverse polarity protection Power down and removal instructions Specifications Warranty m m en on amp fo fo AD Ro 2 FARAD POWER CAPACITOR THIS POWER CAPACITOR MAY EXPLODE ANID CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF ABUSED OR CONNECTED IMPROPERLY REFER TO THIS INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR CORRECT PROCEDURES WHEN MAKING CONNECTIONS AND CHARGING AND DISCHARG ING THE CAPACITOR NEVER EXPOSE THE CAPACITOR TO VOLTAGES HIGHER THAN SPECIFIED Unpacking your 803 Capacitor System Unpack the capacitor and all other items carefully and check to make sure nothing is missing If any item from the list below is missing please contact your dealer immediately The 3953 Capacitor System includes Power Capacitor Mounting Brackets Bright Silver Plated Head Screw Terminal Installation Tools including resistor for charging discharging Operating Features This power capacity is an energy storage device It is designed to supplement you car s charging system when your audio amplifier places a high current demand upon it This occurs for example when the music you are playing contains a loud transient deep bass signal The overall bass response of your system will be enhanced by using this
3. device Since automotive batterias are not designed to deliver the current required by modem car audio systems a capacitor such as this one which is capable of discharging extremely rapidly on demand is a logical addition to your audio system in addition this capacitor can fitter out the AC voltage induced in the amplifier s power supply Unchecked this voltage can cause DC noise in the sound system It is recommended to use a capacitor with a minimum of one microfarad 1F for each 1000 watts of amplifier power you can never have too much capacitance for any audio system The 3995 capacitor features a digital voltage display The power capacttor s role When connected to power the capacitor system is generally in standby mode H the voltage drops below the normal level the capacitor will automatically tum on ensuring a stable voltage and current is provided to the connected amplifier Although the usual concem which motivates a user to install the capacitor system is voltage drops due to a powerful connected amp producing loud bass signals other automotive equipment and accessories can also cause this In any case the capacitor will help to ensure stable voltage for your entertainment system Reverse polarity protection feature H the polarity of the connections to the capacitor is reversed damage to your entertainment of vehicle elechical system can result To eliminate this threat we have incorporated a relay system withi
4. es 1 Keep the positive power wire as short as possible and connect it directly to the amplifiers battery supply cable It is highly recommended to use a high performance distribution block to create a splice in the battery supply cable Do not install a fuse between the capacitor and the amplifier but make sure there is an appropriate fuse in the main supply cable 2 The ground cable for the capacitor should also be as short as possible and connected directly to a good dean bare metal chassis ground point DO NOT ground the capacitor directly to the amplifier ground terminal or ground cable 3 For the above connections use cable of the same or heavier gauge than those which the amplifier uses High performance 4GA or 8GA OFC oxygen free copper cables are a good choice for this application 18GA wire is suitable for the remote tum on connection SUGGESTED WIRING
