Before installing the amplifier

WARNING

! To ensure proper installation, use the supplied

parts in the manner specified. If any parts
other than those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be-
come loose causing the amplifier to shut
down.

! Do not install in:

— Places where it could injure the driver or

passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.

— Places where it may interfere with the dri-

ver, such as on the floor in front of the dri-
ver

’s seat.

! Install tapping screws in such a way that the

screw tip does not touch any wire. This is im-
portant to prevent wires from being cut by vi-
bration of the car, which can result in fire.

! Make sure that wires are not caught in the

sliding mechanism of the seats, resulting in a
short-circuit.

! When drilling to install the amplifier, always

confirm no parts are behind the panel and
protect all cables and important equipment
(e.g. fuel/brake lines, wiring) from damage.

CAUTION

! To ensure proper heat dissipation of the ampli-

fier, ensure the following during installation:
— Allow adequate space above the amplifier

for proper ventilation.

— Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat

or carpet.

! Avoid routing wires through hot areas, such

as near the heater outlet. Heat may damage
the insulation, resulting in a short-circuit
through the vehicle body.

! The optimal installation location differs de-

pending on the car model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.

! Firstly make temporary connections and

check to ensure the amplifier and system op-
erate properly.

! After installing the amplifier, confirm that the

spare tire, jack and tools can be easily re-
moved.

Example of installation on
the floor mat or chassis

1

Place the amplifier in the desired instal-

lation location.
Insert the supplied tapping screws (4 mm ×
18 mm) into the screw holes and push on the
screws with a screwdriver so they make an im-
print where the installation holes are to be lo-
cated.

2

Drill 2.5 mm (1/8 inch) diameter holes

at the imprints either on the carpet or di-
rectly on the chassis.

3

Install the amplifier with the use of

supplied tapping screws (4 mm × 18 mm).
