After you have completed the installation, you need to test the system. This will help ensure years of trouble-free operation. Please refer to the
listed steps below when testing the sound of your ORION XTREME system.

Step 1

Check all the wiring connections to be sure they are correct and secure.

Step 2

Turn the signal source volume control down all the way. Set any tone controls to their flat or defeated positions. This includes the
loudness control.

Step 3

Turn the level controls of the amplifier to their minimum positions.

Step 4

Turn the source unit on. Check to see if the remote power LED locate on the connection side of the amplifier is lit. If not, please refer
to the power connections section and the trouble shooting section of this manual for instructions.

Step 5

If using a aftermarket source unit, turn the level controls of the amplifier about one quarter of a turn. Slowly increase the volume level
of the source unit to so that you can hear the output of the system. If no sound is heard or if the output is distorted, turn the system
off immediately. Refer to the power connections section and the trouble shooting section of this manual to solve your installation
problems.

Step 6

Check to make sure the output for each channel is correct. If the active crossovers are used, check to make sure that each output is
correct from the amplifier. When using active crossovers on midrange and tweeters, do not use crossover frequencies lower than
recommended. If the system is not configured properly, refer to the internal crossover section of this manual and take corrective
action.

Step 7

If the output is clear and undistorted, continue to the adjusting the sound of the system section of this manual.
