*** WARNING ***
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal before you start any wiring work! The bat-
tery of your car audio system must be disconnected until the entire wiring installation is
completed.
Your PowerBass Xtreme amplifier requires unrestricted current to deliver peak performance, so do not “starve”
your amplifier by using small power cable. Using under sized power cable can result in unnecessary over-
heating of the amplifier, distortion at high volume levels and might even cause the thermal protection circuitry
to shut-off the amplifier. Remember, bigger wire is better! For best results we recommend a PowerBass ampli-
fier install kit, available at your local PowerBass dealer.
•
Use rubber grommets when running cables through any metal or sharp plastic, to prevent accidental
shorting or shearing. Make sure the cables do not interfere with normal operation of the vehicle.
•
The audio signal cables (RCA interconnects) should be kept far away from any potential sources of
electrical interference such as electronic vehicle management systems (relays, engine computers etc.),
wiring harnesses, fuel pumps etc.
