That'll be 1.0 farad by the way.
Dont touch the terminals once youve connected it cause it will shoot you across the road.
You need to connect the feed from the battery / switch etc to the + and the feed to the amp to the -
The readout out will be a resistive load that will dishcarge the capacitor over time, sometimes if they havent got a readout they'll have an internal resistor that will do the same job.
Maybe the third terminal is a relay that only allows the capacitor to be charged when the headunits turned on much like the REM lead from your headunit to your amp - just looped through the capaitor terminal instead.

Um, you want to connect it straight across the battery. When it's charged it's a infinite impendance and if you wired it in series, your amp wouldn't work
