Installation
Actual installation of an EFX amplifier is not a difficult task. However, it takes a few tools, considerable care and precise
attention to the instructions in this manual. If you doubt that you are up to the task, or your car proves to require special
installation skills, we recommend having the work done by an authorized XFIRE AUDIO installation professional.
Safety instructions
•
Always disconnect the negative (“-”) battery terminal before making any connections to the amplifier.
•
Fuse the positive (“+”) power lead, with the right value fuse within 30cm of the battery connection, the fuse rating
for each EFX amplifier is given in the specifications.
•
Each EFX amplifier is designed for use with a 12Volt DC negative ground system.
•
Mount the amplifier securely. Do not use unmounted.
•
Make sure all wire connections are secure and protected so there is no danger of rips or pinches in the wire.
•
Make sure your source unit is switched off when making input connections to the amplifier.
•
Inspect your amplifier mounting location carefully to avoid damaging gas tanks, gas lines, brake or hydraulic lines
and electrical wiring.
•
Install the amplifier in a location where it will have enough ventilation, protection from engine heat, heaters or
direct sunlight, rain and dirt. Do not install in the engine compartment.
•
Avoid playing your car audio system for long periods of time at high volume when the engine is not running. This
will prevent unneccesary battery drain.
