According to the amp's labeling, you use the - and + that are right next to each other, the top row being 1 channel, the bottom row being the 2nd channel.
Like this very crude paint alteration I made:

IC, i thought that it might retain your left/right balance. i figured that fading to the front with the bridge listed would balance it to the left and fading to the rear would balance to the right, that would annoy me

Well what it bridges is the left/right front into 1 channel and the left/right rear into the other other channel, thereby losing the left/right stereo pairs. HOWEVER, if you connected the front/rear right to the top 2 RCA's and the front/rear left to the bottom 2 RCA's, you could retain your steroe pairs.
