SEE INSTALLATION DIAGRAM
Make sure your as car audio system
is properly fused. You should have a
system fuse for all components, the
fuse should be installed within 18
inches of the battery. Connect this
fused power wire to the positive
terminal.
Use another wire from the positive
terminal to your amplifier(s) positive
supply terminal.
The ground wire from the amplifier(s)
should be connected to the capacitor
’s
negative terminal.
A single wire from the capacitor
’s
negative terminal should be connected
to your vehicle
’s chassis ground.

Capacitors are most effective
when there is a 18
” (0.5m) or
less of wire between the cap
and the amplifier(s).
Large electrolytic capacitors do not
like heat, oil, grease, water, or mis-
treatment. If the capacitor housing
is deformed during installation,
many layers of foil material may be
damaged inside the capacitor and it
should not be installed. Install in a
safe, dry location within 18
” (0.5m)
of the amplifier. Observe correct
polarity: positive terminal is marked
with a (+) symbol, negative terminal
is not marked.Do not block the vent
plug on top of cap. If the capacitor
is wired in reverse of marking on the
cap top the electrolytic fluid inside
the capacitor will vent, possibly
causing damage to the interior of
your vehicle.
This completes the wiring.
