When carrying out installation work
and making connections please ob-
serve the following safety instruc-
tions:
-
Disconnect the negative terminal of
the battery! When doing so, please
observe the vehicle manufacturer’s
safety instructions.
-
Make sure you do not damage ve-
hicle components when drilling any

Instructions for installation and
connection
The final stage must be installed pro-
fessionally for reasons of safety. The
mounting surface must be suitable for
the screws provided, and must provide
firm support (see page 19, Fig. 1).
Fit a fuse in the amplifier power line no
more than 30 cm from the vehicle bat-
tery, in order to protect the battery in the
event of a short-circuit between it and
the power amplifier. The amplifier’s own
fuse protects the amplifier itself, but not
the car battery.
Connection
(see page 20, Fig. 2)
Connect red wire
6
with positive bat-
tery, the wire
7
with negative vehicle
ground and the control wire
8
with the
control output (e.g. for electronic aerial
or amplifier) of the car stereo equipment.
The ODsb 8000A has two drive options,
either via the preamplifier output termi-
nals or the loudspeaker output terminals
of the car stereo equipment. Preampli-
fier output terminals are connected to
cinch (RCA) jacks of the Woofer Box
via a shielded audio line. When using
the loudpeaker output terminals as drive
option, run the input leads
