CONTROL SYSTEM 3-INPUT SWITCH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Dear customer, Congratulations on your purchase of a Bazooka Audio Input Control System. At Bazooka, we are fanatics about accurate music reproduction. Your selection of our products for your sound system indicates that quality sound is also important to you too. At SAS, we take great pride in manufacturing revolutionary audio products, and through the years of engineering expertise, hand craftsmanship and critical testing procedures, we have created this high-performance input switcher.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Fuse amplifiers power wire at the battery. Be sure to fuse the power wire within 6” of the vehicles battery. This will protect the vehicle and CSS-3I in case of a short circuit between the CSS-3I and battery. Use high grade wire connectors. To ensure maximum power transfer and secure safe connections, it is recommended to use high grade barrier spades (for connection at amplifier if applicable) and terminal rings (for connection at battery). Do not run any wires underneath vehicle.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS Multiple Source Inputs The CSS-3I’s allows for two low level inputs (RCA’s) and one Stereo 3.5mm stereo input jack (MP3 or iPod). This gives the flexibility to choose what source input you wish to play through your amplifier. Source Thru-puts We have included source thru-puts for the inputs A & B. This allows you to pass the same source signal to another CCS-3I or additional amplifiers in the system.
MOUNTING LOCATION Before you start the installation, it will be necessary to find a mounting location for the unit. Find a location in which the CSS-3I will receive adequate ventilation in order to dissipate the heat it develops during operation. Do not mount in the engine compartment. Select the location in which you wish to mount the CSS-3I. Use caution when mounting the CSS-3I, there are many wires, gas lines, vacuum lines, brake lines as well as a gas tank in the automobile.
POWER CONNECTIONS IMPORTANT! Before making any connections, disconnect the vehicles battery until the installation is completed to avoid possible damage to the electrical system. HIGH LEVEL INPUT BAZOOKA SPEAKER OUTPUT FILTER CSR-W or CSR-I The Power button on the CSR-W or CSR-I turns any amplifier connected to the Orange wire “ON” or “OFF”. Please note that the CSS-3I itself must be powered “ON” from the radio as explained below.
SIGNAL CONNECTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS USING THE CSR-W To make these connections, we recommend high quality RCA cables, which are available at your local Bazooka retailer. Run signal wires away from electrical wires to avoid possibility of induced noise from the vehicles electrical system (i.e. popping noises or engine noise). INPUT “A” R L R L R L INPUT “B” R 3.

USING CSS-3I FOR MULTIPLE ROOM APPLICATIONS The following example shows how multiple CSS-3I’s can be connected to share one input source. The CD Player (Input A) signal is passed to the second CSS-3I so that when “Input A” is selected, the CD player can be played through the system in the second room.

TROUBLE SHOOTING THE SYSTEM We have put together this trouble-shooting guide if you experience problems after installing the CSS-3I. Please keep in mind that the majority of problems incurred are caused by improper installation and not the equipment itself. In addition, there are many components in the system that could cause various signal problems such as inducted electrical noise and engine noise. Before you can properly address the problem, you must first find the component that is causing the problem.
