TABLE OF CONTENTS Description . 4 4 6 8 8 8 9 14 17 17 17 18 18 19 3 XN3210/XN3410 DESCRIPTION The XN3210 and XN3410 use an unregulated MOSFET power supply for superior sound and output wattage. In addition, a toroid-coil is used to transfer power with minimal performance loss due to heat. To avoid unwanted noise, a doublesided conformal printed circuit board with strategically placed components keeps AM RFI subdued.

English Owner's Manual MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS Prior to mounting the amplifier, make sure it is safe to mount the amplifier in that location. In addition, stainless steel hardware should be used to mount the amplifier and additional accessories. When possible, use a nut and bolt with a lock washer to secure the amplifier. Extra care and attention is necessary in marine installations due to the uncertainty of water conditions. For the most efficient cooling, mount the amplifier so cool air runs along the length of the heat sink, rather than across them. To increase air movement and circulation, a cooling fan can be installed. Mount the amplifier on a rigid surface; avoid mounting to subwoofer enclosures or areas prone to vibration. Prior to drilling and holes, make sure the proposed mounting holes will not cut into the fuel tank, fuel lines, electrical wiring, or through the boat. Do not mount the amplifier where it is susceptible to water. WIRING PRECAUTIONS Read all of the wiring precautions prior to making any connections. If you are unsure and/or don't have the necessary installation hardware, contact your local Clarion Marine Audio dealer to perform the installation. Before you begin the installation, make sure the source unit Power switch is in the OFF position. Disconnect the negative (-) lead of the battery (or batteries) before making any power connections. When making connections, be sure that each connection is clean and secure. A ground wire should be run directly from the battery to the amplifier. Use black insulated 10-gauge or larger wire for the amplifier's ground (-) power lead. Add an additional fuse holder and fuse at the positive (+) terminal of the battery. The fuse rating should equal the total current consumption at full output of the amplifier(s). Use red insulated 10-gauge or larger wire for the amplifier's positive (+) power lead. Do not install the fuse until the complete installation has been performed. When replacing the amplifier's fuse, always use one having the same amperage rating. Substituting a higher rated fuse or a slow-blow type can result in serious damage to the amplifier. 8 XN3210/XN3410 7. [. . . ] Refer to the Troubleshooting section for additional help. English Owner's Manual TROUBLESHOOTING Problem No Audio. Check battery and ground wiring at amplifier; also check battery connections. Check speaker continuity to ground, it should not show a common ground. Check location for adequate ventilation; consult an authorized Clarion dealer. 18 XN3210/XN3410 Problem Distorted audio.
