Before you start
• Do not run wiring underneath or outside
the car since exposure to the elements may
cause the insulation to deteriorate rapidly,
resulting in short-circuits and/or intermittent
operation.
• All cables should be run beneath carpets
and inside trim pieces.
• To help minimize interference, it is best to
run the power cables along the opposite side of
the audio (RCA) cables.
• Whenever wires pass through metal,
rubber or plastic grommets must be used to
prevent the metal from wearing through the
installation and causing a short.
• Whenever possible, use cable ties,
mounting clamps and similar wiring aids.
(available from an electrical supply or auto parts
store) Adding stress relief loops to wiring is also
advisable to prevent straining or breakage.
• It is best to test the system before the
amplifier is mounted and interior of car is
reassembled.
• If the temperature inside your car reaches
extreme levels(such as by sitting locked up
for several hours in the hot sun or exposed to
a very cold winter's day) the amplifier may go
into protection mode and shut off. Leave the
unit off until the ambient temperature returns
to normal.
• The amplifier operates with any vehicle
using a 12 volt negative ground system. If you
are not sure of the type of electrical system in
your vehicle, consult your authorized dealer or
qualified mechanic.
• Never ground the speaker leads and never
allow the speaker leads to come in contact
with each other. The Speaker wire should be at
least 16 gauge or lower.
• Remote turn on wire must be switched by
the radio. If the radio does not have a remote
turn on or antenna output, connect to wire that
has a positive 12 volts output when the key is
turned to the accessory position. If the amplifier
does not turn off the battery will die.
• Do not listen to high volumes for extended
periods of time or hearing damage may occur.
Continuous exposure to sound
pressure levels over 100 dB may cause
permanent hearing loss. High-powered
autosound system may produce soundn
pressure levels well over 130 dB. Use common
sense and practice safe sound.
