 INSTALLATION

Lighting Hook-Up Recommendations

The illuminite lighting elements of your XiN series products provide you with a unique 
custom touch to your vehicle. Dual’s patent pending illuminite bulb system and control 
circuitry provides an extraordinary lighted-Hue illumination which allows great creative 
opportunities for the beginner and seasoned custom installer alike. The interior of your 
vehicle will never sound or look ordinary again. Let your imagination take you there.

The lighting features of all illuminite products require a 12 volt power source to operate. 
The speaker has two distinct sets of input terminals. The first is labeled audio input 
terminals and the second is labeled illuminite lighting inputs. The inputs are clearly 
marked with a label positioned directly above the terminal housing. The polarity (+ and -) 
indicators for each set of inputs also appear on these labels.

1. Do not connect Amplifier or any audio source to illuminite lighting inputs. Inputs are

designed for switched 12 volt power source only. More then 3V rms connected to 
illumination inputs can cause permanent damage to the lighting elements.

2. See fig. 1a, (illustrates wiring diagram) be sure to maintain polarity. Be sure to connect

to a constant switched 12 volt source. Correct connection would be the positive (+) 12 
volt wire to the Positive (+) illuminite Lighting input terminal and connect the Negative 
(-) illuminite lighting input terminal to a good chassis ground.

Notice: The Illuminite™ series LED illumination elements are not removable. There 
are no serviceable parts inside or attached to the speaker assembly. The Illuminite™ 
series products are sensitive electronic devices. Removal or tampering with any part or 
portion of the speaker and/or its assemblies will damage the product and void the limited 
warranty.
