While this speaker is designed to be water and spray resistant, it is not 
designed to be submerged or to withstand high-pressure water spray. Please 
exercise care when washing your boat to avoid damaging your speaker.

 

Do 

not install on submersibles, personal watercraft or any other vessel likely to 
be under water at any time. 
 
Prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of 100dB can cause 
permanent hearing loss. This high-performance speaker can exceed this level. 
Please exercise restraint in its operation in order to preserve your ability to 
enjoy its fidelity. 

When installing a subwoofer in your vessel, it is extremely important to secure 
it firmly. This applies not only to the woofer itself, but also any structure it 
is mounted to. If not firmly attached, the speaker can become dangerous 
projectile in a collision. Please review the mounting information carefully and 
use the supplied marine-grade hardware to mount this product.

 

It is absolutely vital that your speaker is connected as shown in this manual. 
Failure to connect the system as shown will result in damage to your speakers 
which is NOT covered under warranty. 

Do not attempt to remove the lighting LEDs from from the speaker. The LEDs 
are permanently fixed and attempting to remove them will cause damage 
and this damage will not be covered under warranty.
