Safety precautions
Safety
Throughout this manual, pay attention to the safety symbols.
Taramps reserves the right to modify the contents of this manual without prior notice and without any
obligation to apply such modications to units previously manufactured.
This symbol as ‘’Caution’’ is intended to alert the user to important instructions.
Failure to follow the instructions may result in risks to the user or damage to the
product.
Caution
As protection, a fuse (20A) must be installed near the positive terminal of the battery. See more
details on page 10 of this manual.
This product incorporates a high power Class D amplifier, which may degrade the reception of
distant FM stations. To achieve the best FM reception, avoid routing the antenna cable
together with the product’s installation wiring.
The recommended wire gauge is 4mm² for the positive/negative wires and 0,75mm² for the
remote and ACC wire.
LED strips may also interfere with radio, depending on the lighting effect, the chosen color, or
the installation location.
Important information
02

Output and power connector
1 - FM Antenna: FM antenna input.
For connections in STEREO mode, the minimum inpedance is 2 OHMS per channel; in BRIDGE
mode, it is 4 OHMS.
Refer to the wiring diagram on page 11.
Red wire: Ignition switched signal (ACC).
2- Speaker connector.
For speaker associations, the impedance to be considered is the resulting impedance.
3 - Power connector/ REM OUT / RGB OUT: The yellow (+) wires from the connector must be
joined and connected to the positive terminal of the battery using a cable with a minimum
cross section of 4mm². The black (-) wires from the connector must be joined and connected to
the negative terminal of the battery using a cable of equivalent gauge to the positive cable.
Refer to the wiring diagram on page 10.
Blue wire: Output for antenna control or remote latput (for external amplifiers).
Gray wire: Output for controlling RGB strips/LED strobe lights.
7 - LINE OUT: The LINE OUT output allows sending the audio signal (low level) to another device,
such as an amplifier or an active subwoofer.
The signal from this output comes from the REAR channels and is not affected by crossover

Amplifies the entire audio range, responding from 20Hz to 20kHz. This
function is normally used when there is an external crossover in the
system.
Amplifies signals from 90Hz upwards. This type of functions is used for

Caution
Before making any connections to the power terminals, make sure the vehicle’s battery
negative (-) terminal is disconnected.
Using wiring with a gauge smaller than recommended causes power loss and overheating of the
wiring.
*It is necessary to join the two yellow wires (Batt+) and join the two black wires (GND).
Do not use the vehicle’s original wiring: Perform a new installation directly from the battery.
The use of a 20A fuse or circuit breaker near the battery is indispensable.
Observe polarity, never reverse the power cables, as this may damage the AMPLAYER.
The installation of this product must be carried out by a qualified professional.

It is possible to use up to 3 remote controls simultaneously.
To synchronize a new remote control, follow the instructions:
Press and simultaneously until the control’s LED turns off. Check the
number of LED flashes: 3 flashes= OOK/ASK / 4flashes= FSK
4- On the remote control, press the keys and . The panel stops flashing.
(Check if the remote control is compatible)
1- Turn on the AMPLAYER.
3- The panel illumination will start flashing.
The new remote control must be TARAMPS brand, configured for FSK
modulation. To switch between modulation types, follow the procedure below:
2- Press and hold the SYNC button on the rear panel for 5 seconds.
