INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
High-powered car audio
systems may produce sound
pressure levels that exceed the
threshold at which hearing loss may
result.
They may also impair a driver’s ability to
hear traffic sounds or emergency vehi-
cles. Use common sense and practice
safe listening habits when listening to or
adjusting your audio system.

1. Please read this owner’s manual
carefully before installing this ampli-
fier.
2. Disconnect the battery ground
terminal prior to making any elec-
trical connections.

tions such as gas tanks, fuel or
brake lines, and wiring harnesses
before mounting the amplifier.

provide adequate access and venti-
lation and protect the amplifier
from heat, moisture, and dirt.

routing cables to the amplifier, and
run RCA cables away from the
power cables and other potentially
noisy car harnesses.
