TOOLS AND MATERIALS YOU NEED
:
MOUNTING YOUR AMPLIFIER:
•
SCREWDRIVER;ELECTRIC DRILL;1/8 CARBIDE DRILL BIT;
The mounting position of your amplifier will have a great effect on its ability to dissipate the heat generated
during normal operation. It has an ample heat sink for heat dissipation, and is also designed with a thermal shut
–down(for heat protection)Circuit, DO NOT enclose the amplifier in a small box or cover it .
•
4 PAN HEAD SCREW ¾“ LONG
•
USE 8AWG POWER WIRE (min. 20mm²)
Tempeartures in car trunks have been measured as high as 175’F(80 Celsius) in the summer time , since the
thermal shut-down point for the amplifier is 185’F( 85 Celsius) it is easy to see that it must be mounted for
maximum cooling capability. To achieve maximum advantage of convection air flow in a enclosed trunk, mount
the amplifier in a vertical position, on a vertical surface.
•
GROUND YOUR AMPLIFIER TO BARE METER CLOSE TO
•
INSTALLATION LOCATION:
•
USE 12 AWG SPEAKER WIRE OR HEAVIER FROM YOUR
•
AMPLIFIER TO YOUR SPEAKERS
Floor mounting under the seat is usually satisfactory as long as there is at least 1 inch(2 cm) above the amplifier’s
fins for ventilation.
•
LOOK FOR BURS IN THE PATH OF YOUR
•
WIRES AND FILE THEM FLAT TO AVOID PUNCTURE
a)
selected a suitable location that is convenient for mounting, is accessible for wiring and has enough
room for air circulation and cooling.
•
USE 16 AWG WIRE FOR REMOTE TRIGGER
b)
Use the amplifier as a template to mark the mounting holes, remove the amplifier and drill 4 hols,
use extreme caution, inspect underneath surface before drilling.
NOTE ALL WIRE GAUGES ARE BASED ON STRANDED WIRE WITH POLARITY INDICATORS ON TWO
WIRE CONFIGURATIONS
c)
Secure the amplifier by using screws.
CAUTION:
PLEASE USE GREAT CAUTION DRILLING YOUR TRUNK;YOUR GAS TANK AND BRAKE LINES CAN BE DAMAGED BY
PUNCTURING WITH YOUR DRILL BIT: THIS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE OR FAILURE OF YOUR CARS OPERATING
SYSTEMS:
AS A PRECAUTION; IT IS ADVISABLE TO DISCONNECT THE VEHICLE’S BATTERY BEFORE MAKING CONNECTION
TO THE +12 VOLTS SUPPLY WIRING (see owner’s manual of your car for further in formation !)
min. 20mm² ( Thicker if planning for additional amplifiers) wire is recommended both the power and grounds.
Both types are available at most Moblie Audio dealers or installation shops.
INTRODUCTION
1.) GROUND: To vehicle chassis
To avoid ignition noise caused by ground loops, it is necessary that the amplifiers be grounded to a clean, bare
metal surface of the vehicles chassis.
. Amplifiers provide high-performance sound reinforcement for you mobile audio equipment. It’s versatility
enables compatability with optional equalizer, frequency dividing network crossovers, and other audio processors
in a customized system.
NOTE:
GROUND WIRE SHOLD NOT BE EXTENDED MORE THAN 3 FT.(1 Meter)
The Multi-Mode bridging capabilitis allow felxibility in hosting several differnet speaker configurations.
2.) +12 Volt(Fused)Constant power:to B)
To achieve optimum performance , it is highly recommend that you read this Owners manual before beginning
the installation
Due to the power requirements of the amplifier, this connection should be made directly to the
po)terminal of battery. For saftey reasons, install an in-line fuse holder(not included) as close to the
battery po)terminal as possibile with a rating: not exceeding value of fuses in amp.
WARNING
3.)Remote Turn-On Input: To power antenna output of Car Stereo
High powered audio systems in a vehicle are capable of generating „Live Concert“high level of
sound pressure, Continued exposure to excessively high volume sound levels may cause hearing
loss or damage. Also, operation of a motor vehicle while listening to audio equipment at high
volume levels may impair your ability to hear external sound such as; horns, warning signals,or
emergency vehicles, thus constituting to a potential traffic hazard. For safety reasons we
recommends listening at lower volume levels while driving.
This amplifier is turned” ON” remotely when the vehicle’s stereo is turned ”ON”.
NOTE:
IF YOUR RADIO DOES NOT HAVE +12 VOLT OUTPUT LEAD ;THE “REM” TERMINALON THE AMPLIFIER CAN BE
CONNECTED TO VEHICLE’S ACCESSORY CIRCUIT THAT IS LIVE WHEN THE KEY IS”ON”.
