mounting  and  Installation 

Your new American LEGgarnElifier comes complete with all required mounting hardware. When determining a suitable location in your vehicle for the amp, please remember that 

it is a high-power electronic device capable of generating high heat. 

For this reason, 

alap chaase a lacalian in JIIur vehicle which hIS law libralian,adequale IInliiatian,a minimum

dust,and na maisture. 

Be sure to mount 

the amp in such a manner as to allow reasonable airtlow over the cooling fins. 

Mark the lacatian far the maunling 

screw 

hales 

by positioning the amp where you wish to install it and use a scribe (or one of the mounting screws) inserted in each of the 

mounting holes to mark the mounting surtace. If the mounting surtace 

IS 

carpeted,  measure the hole centers and mark with a felt tip pen. 

lefare lIIe.ing ta drill the maunling  hales, 

take

allier 

devices in JIIur  vehicle which may be lacated behind tile maunting 

.. rllce! 

Then drill pilot holes in the mounting surtace for the mounting screws and insert them. Tighten the screws securely.

JIIur  amplifier, plelSe  abserve the 

Use at least 

gauge wire for power and ground connections. 

Wire the amplifier directly to the car battery. 

For the ground connection, use the shortest possible wire to a good chassis ground point. 

American LEGACY  Series amplifiers feature built-in fuse systems. These fuses protect both the 

amplifier and the electrical system in your vehicle from tault conditions. If you ever need to 

replace the fuse in your  American LEGACY  Series amp, use a fuse of exactly the same type and 

rating. A different type or rating of fuse may result in damage or fire.
