LISTENING TO YOUR SOUNDBAR
Turning the Soundbar On and Off
Set the soundbar’s rear-panel power switch to On. This will put the soundbar in the
standby mode. To turn the soundbar on, press the Standby button on the soundbar’s
end panel:
If your source unit does not have RCA outputs use the supplied bare wire-to-RCA
adapters to connect the source unit’s speaker wires to the soundbar’s audio input
cable, as shown in the illustration below.
2. Position the soundbar in the desired location against the vehicle mounting bar. Use
4 of the supplied mounting bracket bolts to secure each bracket top to a bracket
base. Two sets of bolts are supplied, allowing the soundbar to be mounted to
pipes from 1” (25mm) to 3-1/2” (89mm) in diameter.
a.
When the soundbar is in the correct position, tighten the mounting bracket
adjustment screws as tight as possible using your fingers, then insert the
supplied small hex wrench into the holes on the adjustment screws and use
it as a lever to secure the screws as firmly as possible.
3a. Run one end of one safety harness wire through one of the soundbar’s harness
attachment loops, and use the supplied clamp to secure the wire.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to tighten the bolts on the clamp as far as they will go and
test the connection to be sure that the safety harness wire is secure in the clamp.
3b. Run the other end of the safety harness wire around the vehicle mounting bar and
use the supplied clamp to secure the wire.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to tighten the bolts on the clamp as far as they will go and
test the connection to be sure that the safety harness wire is secure in the clamp.
3c. Repeat Steps 3a and 3b with the other safety harness wire, using the other
soundbar harness attachment loop and the vehicle mounting bar.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to tighten the bolts on the clamp as far as they will go and test
the connection to be sure that the safety harness wires are secure in the clamps.
