DO NOT substitute the 7.5 amp fuse included with the Amplified Bazooka
with anything other than the same fast blow current rated fuse. Substitution or
deletion will void the product's warranty and may cause damage to your car
or the amplifier.

Please take time to read through this manual and plan out your installation
before you begin!
Locate an area in the rear of the vehicle where you would like to place the
Bazooka speaker systems. The location you have selected must meet the follow-
ing requirements in order for the Bazooka to be properly installed in the vehicle:
Be sure that your application meets all of these requirements before you
continue the installation procedure!
INSTALLATION
1)
The woofer (grill end) should be facing
into a corner. (See figures 1, 2 and 3)
2)
Ideally, there should be 2 to 4 inches
between the woofer and the corner it is
pointing into.
3)
The mounting area should be carefully
checked to be sure that the mounting
screws will not damage the gas tank,
electrical wiring, fuel lines, or the spare tire
during the mounting of the strap bases.
4)
The strap mounting bases should be
screwed securely to a rigid surface that is
part of, or anchored to, the structure of
the vehicle.
The 16 gauge red wire on the 14-pin Molex Mini-fit Jr. connector is the
12 Volt positive power wire. It must be fused and connected directly to
the positive terminal of the battery to provide a power source with a low
voltage drop and low noise. Do not make the power connection at the
fuse block or any point other than the battery. Improper power sources
can reduce output and cause distortion.
The fuse holder should be connected to the battery's positive terminal. The
fuse is designed to prevent fire or damage to your car, should the battery
wire short to ground. Wait to insert the fuse into its holder until all wire
connections have been made.
If it is necessary to lengthen the battery wire, add the required length
between the amplifier and the fuse holder, not the fuse holder and the
battery. Use 16 gauge or larger to extend the battery wire. It is best to
use as short a wire as possible.
Be sure you DO NOT run the power wire next to the input cables of the
amplifier, this will induce noise.
Avoid running the power wire near the radio's antenna or power leads, or
near sensitive equipment or harnesses. The power wire carries substantial
currents and could induce noise.
