PLANNING YOUR  INSTALLATION

It is important that you take the time to read 

this manual and that you plan out your installation

carefully.The following are some considerations 

that you must take into account when planning 

your installation.

Cooling Efficiency Considerations:

The outer shell of your JL Audio amplifier is

designed to remove heat from the amplifier

circuitry. For optimum cooling performance, this

outer shell should be exposed to as large a volume

of air as possible. Enclosing the amplifier in a small,

poorly ventilated chamber can lead to excessive

heat build-up and degraded performance. If an

installation calls for an enclosure around the

amplifier, we recommend that this enclosure be

ventilated with the aid of a fan. In normal

applications, fan-cooling is not necessary.

Mounting the amplifier upside down is 

strongly discouraged.

If mounting the amplifier under a seat, make sure

there is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space above the

amplifier’s outer shell to permit proper cooling.

Safety Considerations:

Your amplifier needs to be installed in a dry,

well-ventilated environment and in a manner 

which does not interfere with your vessel’s factory

installed electronic devices.You should also take the

time to securely mount the amplifier using the

supplied screws so that it does not come loose in

the event of a collision or a sudden jolt to the

vessel (12 lbs. of aluminum traveling at 30 MPH will

hurt you).

Stupid Mistakes to Avoid:

• Check before drilling any holes in your vessel to

make sure that you will not be drilling through the

hull, a fuel tank, fuel line, wiring harness or other

vital vessel system.

• Do not run system wiring outside or underneath

the vessel.This is an extremely dangerous practice

which can result in severe damage to your vessel

and person.

• Protect all system wires from sharp edges

(metal, fiberglass, etc.) by carefully routing them,

tying them down and using grommets and loom

where appropriate.

• Do not mount the amplifier in the engine

compartment or in any other area that will

expose the amplifier circuitry to the elements.

While this amplifier is specially designed for marine

applications, it is not waterproof and it should not

be mounted where it is likely to get wet.

PROTECT YOUR  HEARING! 

We value you as a long-term customer. For that

reason, we urge you to practice restraint in the

operation of this product so as not to damage your

hearing and that of others in your vessel. Studies

have shown that continuous exposure to high

sound pressure levels can lead to permanent

(irreparable) hearing loss.This and all other high-

power amplifiers are capable of producing such high

sound pressure levels when connected to a speaker

system. Please limit your continuous exposure to

high volume levels.

While driving, operate your audio system in a

manner that still allows you to hear necessary noises

to operate your vessel safely (horns, sirens, etc.).

SERIAL NUMBER  

In the event that your amplifier requires service

or is ever stolen, you will need to have a record of

the product’s serial number. Please take the time to

enter that number in the space provided below.

The serial number can be found on the bottom

panel of the amplifier and on the amplifier packaging.

Serial Number:

INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS

This amplifier is designed for operation in vessels

with 12V, negative-ground electrical systems. Use of

this product in vessels with positive ground and/or

voltages other than 12V may result in damage to the

product and will void the warranty.

This product is 

not

certified or approved for

use in aircraft.

Do not attempt to “bridge” the outputs of this

amplifier with the outputs of a second amplifier,

including an identical one.
