General instructions for installing a HELIX
speaker system
To prevent damage to the speakers and possible in-
jury, read this manual carefully and follow all instal-
lation instructions. This product has been checked
for proper function prior to shipping and is guaran-
teed against manufacturing defects.
For a proper performance and to ensure full war-
ranty coverage, we strongly recommend to get this
product installed by an authorized HELIX dealer.
If you choose to perform your own installation read
the following information and precautions carefully.
Failure to follow the stated precautions may result in
personal injury and/or damage to the audio system
or vehicle.
1.
Always make sure that the speaker will fit into
the intended mounting location and that there
is adequate depth for the magnet system.
2. Check for adequate space between speak-
er and window, window crank, power win-
dow mechanism, seat, rear deck torsion
bars, and other items which may interfere
with the speaker`s mounting. This is very
important if any hole cutting is required.
Detailed size information is indicat-
ed in the dimension section of this man-
ual. Take care that the mounting sur-
face is flat and free from all obstructions.
3. Do not mount the speakers where water may
splash on them.
4. The quality of the installation has a signif-
icant effect on the overall performance of
the speaker system. Treat each installa-
tion step with a high degree of attention.
5. Avoid low frequency cancellation caused
by air leakage between the speak-
er basket and the mounting surface (e.g.
mounted on a bended or uneven sur-
face or mounted in an oversized hole).
6. Mounting panel reinforcement may be nec-
essary in some cases in order to ensure a
stable, torsion-free and even surface. This
can be achieved by mounting the speak-
er on a metal or wooden sub-baffle be
-
hind the body or door panel. Consult an
installation specialist for further advices.
7. In most cases you can use the original speak-
er mounting locations at the doors, body pan-
els or the rear deck. If these are not available
you have to prepare your own secure installa-
tion place. Due to their structural integrity and
accessibility the precut mounting holes should
be used whenever possible.
Important:
Never cut any metal that is an integral part of an
automobile`s safety or structural car body.
Congratulations!
