The reason you have 4 plugs on your sub is because it has a dual voice coil. It is basically like having 2 subs in one. You have 2 wiring options you can wire in 2ohm or 8 ohm loads. most amps are 1,2,or 4 ohm so i suggest going 2 ohm. The amp should be rated for 800-1200Watts @ 2 ohm load for this sub to work properly and make sure that amp is at max 80% by adjusting gain.This website will help with wiring be sure to note that for 2 ohm load the + are hooked up together. and the - are hooked together a parrallel ciruit.

Good Luck and enjoy
The subwoofer is a dual voice coil. so you have three options here.1 you could put a wire from one of the - to one of the + and that would give you 8 ohms or, 2 you could put a wire from the - to the other - and + to the other + and it would give you 2 ohms. or one more option would be if your amp is two channel you could wire each channel two each voice coil and each would be 4 ohms each but you need to use a 1 female to a two male Y adapter.
I would just run 2 positive wires to the positive on your amp and all negatives to your negative port.
